This is a 12 post of the day, but most pundits are picking NE. Every mmqb.com (Peter Stooge King's website) writer picked NE. I just don't see it. I understand some picking the Patriots, but all of them? I think it's going to be a fun day.

I want the Seahawks to win, just so the players can mock the pundits. I have disdain for the media, in general, but sports media types are the worst. They are picking the Patriots, mostly because they have been a dynasty. Are they a good team? Of course. But, I agree with you that they are being picked because of their reputation, Belichick, and Brady.

I read all the "expert" picks on ESPN.com. I thought they were like 3/5 for the Patriots. I went back and counted and there was actually like four more that picked the Hawks. Guess I'm more of a Hook than I want to admit.
Tomorrow could be fun. Or not. Either way it will be interesting. -
Wow. Get your homer on. Every. Single. One. Picked NE.
Maybe it is easier for east coast media to pick NE in case they lose.... they can always re-link this dreck and promote their homerness....
Or....
They think Seattle is SE Alaska like most of the world. -
I knew King would pick NE. King is good to the Hawks but he always picks NE for everything.
Fine to pick NE but 31 points? NE has a worse offense than GB who managed only 22 points with the benefit of 5 turnovers.
Basically all these pundits reason that NE has Tom Brady and SEA's WRs suck. NE's offense doesn't matchup well and NE's run defense is mediocre. -
You mean like Superb Owl 48

Might as well not even play the game.

The seahooks could win 12 in a row and the pundits would still pick against them. Water remains wet

I cant fucking wait

Im one of those people who believes in NFC physicality and speed. NE is a soft AFC pussy team that is going to get punched in the mouth over and over until they tap

NE's white possesion receivers aren't exactly scary.
Always about the whites
