The Herd with Colin Cowherd

It all comes down to this. Action Network Chief Content Officer Chad Millman is joined by professional sports bettor Simon Hunter for this final episode of the NFL Season as they firm up their final bets for Super Bowl LVI between the Cincinnati Bengals and Los Angeles Rams. Together they go through the side and total, examining the market movements and professional gambler intel Simon received throughout the week. They discuss betting strategies and the risks inherent in what is often a flukey game in which pressure is at an all-time high. But when it is all said and done, Chad and Simon put their names besides the picks they'll be hanging their hats on come Super Bowl Sunday.

It's the best of The Colin Cowherd Podcast! First, Colin's top takes of the week (3:00), including why the L.A. Super Bowl is everything about what the NFL wants to be in the next 20 years, why the NFL should include the postseason in its MVP voting, and why any NFL star would be eviscerated for making the equivalent choice of KD to the Nets. Then, Pro Football Hall of Fame wide receiver Calvin Johnson discusses when he realized Matthew Stafford was different than the rest of the QB's he's played with (22:00), what Stafford is like during crunch time (24:00), what impresses him most about Cooper Kupp (25:00), and the moment he decided to retire (26:00). National championship winning former LSU coach Ed Orgeron recalls the first time he met Burrow (28:00), and stories from working with Pete Carroll and Jimmy Johnson (34:00).

Next, 2-time Super Bowl winning QB Eli Manning discusses his pre-Super Bowl nerves (38:00), if his famous Super Bowl 46 dime to Mario Manningham is the best throw of his career (39:00), what he sees in Joe Burrow that has made him so good so early in his career (42:00), why OBJ has had such a resurgence with the Rams (44:00), how Matt Stafford's trade to the Rams has changed his career arc (45:00). And finally, The Action Network's Chad Millman tells Colin if his Super Bowl pick and prop bet sides are sharp or square. (50:00).

Chris is joined this week by longtime boxing writer and friend of the podcast, Keith Idec.

Laster in the podcast, Daniel Jacobs stops by to tell his side of why he hasn't had a fight in a long time and what we can expect from him this weekend.

Colin explains why it's ridiculous Joe Burrow didn't receive a single vote for MVP this season when he's the best example of "valuable" in the NFL. He believes there is one team that is clearly the best fit for Aaron Rodgers if he decides to leave the Packers. He also reveals his official pick for Super Bowl 56. Plus, Greg Cosell from NFL Films joins the show to preview the match ups for Sunday's big game.
