Crap - so we lost and aren't actually in the Super Bowl ?

good call. I hate when they make these bold predictions, and don't have to answer to them.

Tell me about it, how is it that every time one of these dipsh$@ columnists writes an article making some ridiculous predictions that obviously is not going to come true, it is all forgotten after they are wrong.. he obviously got that job through his dad. Jeremy Green is who I though he was..

Green didn't piss me off so much with the prediction as with how he behaved afterwards. He did a chat on ESPN the next day and as you would expect there was plenty of taunting. Instead of just ignoring it and talking about the game (and why he was incorrect in his pick) he got defensive and baited/taunted the Pats fans. It was about as unprofessional as he could have been for someone who's being paid to discuss football from a "scout's" perspective. Truly an immature and little man, from what I can tell.

I almost fell off my chair after the AFCCG when ESPN had Jeremy Green doing some pre-SuperBowl scouting on the Patriots......In the interest of NFL, ESPN should ban him from covering the Patriots. He is obviously a slanted columnist when it comes to the Patriots. Picking against a 16-0 team at home in the playoffs will probably be thrown at him for years.

I love this part the best "...but know this: New England won't be able to run on Jacksonville. Pittsburgh ran it 26 times for a 1.7 average Saturday night, so the Patriots will throw the ball..."

I've never really seen him bring anything to analysis of football which I couldn't have figured out for myself, often better than he.

Which makes me wonder, other than being the son of a former coach, what makes him any more qualified to do that job than I am?

Yeah, Maroney had tons of trouble running against the Jaguars.

I think I might frame this
