adam Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 http://espn.go.com/nfl/picks http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/features/writers/expert/picks 16 so-called experts pick the Falcons. Not a single one picks the Bears, yet we are only 2.5 underdogs. The Jets are the only other unanimous pick to win. That means every other underdog received one vote. The odds makers are pretty good at the spread and they are actually saying the Bears are favorites on a neutral field (3 pts the normal home field advantage bonus). It is kind of funny to see their yearly records predicting the games. ESPN "experts" put CBS "experts" to shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Hochuli 3:16 Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 They all also picked New Orleans back in the 2006-2007 NFC title game. From there on out, I don't even read anybody's predictions, yet alone ESPN's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xvflutop Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 I believe they all picked the steelers as well in week 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted October 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 I believe they all picked the steelers as well in week 2 Yeah, but that was after we lost to GB. I just was shocked that no one picked us. Position by position breakdown, the only area they have an edge would be at WR. Otherwise it is pretty even, or we even have an edge.

DaBearSox Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 When a network has commentators by the likes of Steve Phillips, Stephen A. Smith, and Trent Dilfer you cannot take them seriously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowlingtwig Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 When a network has commentators by the likes of Steve Phillips, Stephen A. Smith, and Trent Dilfer you cannot take them seriously. I hate Trent Dilfer, I didn't like him as a player and I hate him even more as he is so biased and its obvious. His hatred for the Bears is sickening. Then again this is a guy who thought he was a great QB. LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrackerDog Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Really? Who gives a shit? Mike Golic hasn't picked the Bears all season on Mike and Mike. I don't think he picked the Bears in our Superbowl season a few years back more than a time or two. I still enjoy the Mike and Mike show. Atlanta is at home and they beat us last year. The "experts" are going with the easy pick here. Doesn't mean the Bears don't get any respect or that we can't win. It means nothing.
