Re: ESPN Week 4 Picks
 

I believe most of those "experts" also picked the Falcons last week.

hmmmmm....

Re: ESPN Week 4 Picks
 

Good. Let them pick against us. I was tired of the team being considered the top dog by the media year in and year out. Though, it is a little concerning that Peter King is pick us. :(

Re: ESPN Week 4 Picks
 

Actually most of their crew picked the Pats last week. Mike Ditka, Eric Allen, Mike Golic and Bill Simmons were the only espn'ers to pick Atlanta.

Good lord. Someone picked the Lions over the Bears? :eek:

Did the Lions have Jason Campbell traded to the Bears this week?

CBS: take the Ravens and the points
 

Predicting against the spread - Pats by 1.5 points - five out of six at CBS Sports went with the Ravens to cover. Only Pete Prisco went with the Pats while Harmon Forecast, Clark Judge, Greg Urbano, Peter Madden and Dave Richard went with the Ravens plus the points. In their fan vote it's evenly split, 51% going with the Pats and 49% with Baltimore.

Pete Prisco predicts the Pats win 31-28.
We thought we'd be talking about that vaunted New England offense against that great Ravens defense, but the Patriots haven't lived up to the hype. Two years ago, the Ravens should have defeated the Patriots, only to lose on a questionable call. Those were different teams. I think this one will be a shootout for both teams. Tom Brady will hit some big throws, but so will Joe Flacco to keep it close.

Harmon Forecast predicts the Pats win 20-19.
This should be a great defensive game. The Ravens' defense has dominated every running back it has faced this season. Meanwhile, the Patriots' defense took away the Falcons' rushing attack last week. Patriots QB Tom Brady is looking sharper, but he still hasn't hit his stride yet.

Sporting News: 6 out of 7 pick the Ravens to win

PFT picks the Pats by a field goal
 

NBC Sports/Pro Football Talk goes with the Pats by three.

Re: ESPN Week 4 Picks
 

Unreal looking at them picks. I'm not at all confident about the Patriots this week but I think they are favourites at home. Very surprising that only two of them pick us.
But then again when you look at some of the other picks.

I notice they all except one of them pick the 0-3 Titans at Jacksonville which appears a lottery game to me.
And they all pick the Redskins to beat the Bucs. Now we all know that the Bucs are no great shakes but the Redskins offense is the most disorganised bunch I've seen this year.
And they all go for the Texans who are the worst team against the run to beat Oakland.
