Default ESPN Picks for Pats/Broncos

Steve Young, Michael Irvin and Tom Jackson all picked DENVER.....

I am not surprised by Jackson, he is such a homer and hates BB since their little incident at SB 38....

Irvin was talking about how great Tedy has been but picked Denver anyway.

Young usually picks the Patriots, no explanation here....

6 out of 8 Boston Globe "staff' pick the Patriots. None of them would make a "homer' pick. Only Borges and Cafaldo picked Denver.

ESPN picking Denver is good news for the Patriots because every time they all choose the same team to win, they are proven wrong.

Good. I don't feel good that so many in the media picking Pats (~57% +-7%) SU, not just ATS. When too many picking 'dogs SU on the road, that could be a sign of suckers' bets that Las Vegas loves.

Not that it affects the outcome in anyway, unless it motivates Pats players...

I am glad they all picked the Broncos too.... Jackson wanted to pick the pats because it is bad luck to have all three go for one team, but he couldnt resist. I cant wait to watch tomorrow and laugh at them all after another Pats victory.

Just out of curiosity, what was the incident between Jackson and BB?

For the life of me, I don't get how these guys get away with picking both teams (one in print and the other on the air).

Collinsworth did the same thing this week (within 24 hours: Pats on MSNBC.com and Broncos on HBO).

Proof that it's all irrelevant garbage.

Some of that may have to do with things being taped earlier in the week. And then as they get new information change their opinion. Which is all it is. One man's opinion.

I thought Greeny took the Pats and the Points for the outright win and Golic took the Broncos for the win but the Pats with the points.
