It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Hey,in 2004 he picked every week against the Eagles right up to the Super Bowl. He would say how he felt they weren't a good team and they would win again and again. He picked against the Pats a lot in 2007 too. So who really cares?
if Brady has 2+ TD passes with no more than 1 interception then the Patriots have a 75 percent chance of winning.
I can't believe the guy gets paid for this stuff:
If Tom Brady steps on the field, the Patriots have a 75% chance of winning. In fact, last I checked, Brady's career winning % was around 80%.
I don't know if Hodge has ever said anything complimentary about the Pats. i can't remember any but i haven't watched BSPN since '07. I do know that he dresses like a rube, every time i saw him i couldn't believe bspn allowed him to go on TV dressed the way he was.Is he just trying to be obnoxious, or does it just come naturally?

What i think the OP is saying and i agree is EVERY team is better than the Pats according to Hodge.Maybe he thinks the Jets are better.

I understand i no longer pay attention to any of these prognosticators. They never seem to be right. But the point is as far as i go is that Hodge dislikes the Pats and has never given them any credit. So if he has no objectivity whats the point of having him as an analyst or what ever he is.I do not listen to Hodge. What so called experts think makes know difference wants the game starts.
Hoge is very loyal to the team that drafted him and for whom he played almost his entire NFL career with - an admirable trait for former players. So he's essentially just another fan of that team. And since that team he roots for is the Pittsburgh Steelers, he's also going to root against the Patriots - and probably the Ravens, Browns and Bengals as well.
To answer your question: just like almost any other Steeler fan, no, I doubt Hoge has ever picked the Pats to win.
I know; that's why I said "almost his entire NFL career."I agree w/you but Hoge played for the Bears in his last year in the league.
