After Week 1 of the NFL season, FOX Sports’ Colin Cowherd is convinced there are only “two great teams” in the league, while the rest of have some flaws to work through.

Check out the full list below, along with Cowherd’s thoughts on each.

10. Tampa Bay Buccaneers 

Cowherd’s thoughts: “Baker Mayfield was fantastic. Tampa scored on seven of eight drives. Baker was 24 of 30 and totally comfortable. Mike Evans and Chris Godwin [were] 13 of 14 … 114 yards when targeted. I don’t think Tampa’s a good team, but Baker looked like the MVP of the league.”

7. Houston Texans

Cowherd’s thoughts: “They’re still young, and that was a tough road game. But they didn’t have any turnovers. C.J. Stroud played clean. They had 417 total yards. If they go home and hammer the Bears, I think I may move the Texans to No. 3. I’m…
