I don't see a reason in making such a big deal about what ESPN is saying. They can't see the future, so how do they know which team will do what? All the writers do is guess what they think will happen. Let them pick the Patriots or whoever to be better than us. I'd rather see that then all of them picking the Phins to win, because the more people that pick against us, the more we will want to prove them wrong. I know Saban probably doesn't use media negativity to hype the team, but if one player sees it on their own, and uses it as bait to make him mad enough to beat a New England, or a Pittsburgh, then it works out better that they pick against us. So... To make a long story short, it's just a bunch of people making random guesses about who they THINK will do well. And, just beacuse they say it, doesn't make it true. In fact, if I remember correctly, a lot of people picked Carolina to win the Super Bowl last year. How did that work out? And didn't a lot of people pick the Jets to go to the playoffs, and the Eagles to go to the playoffs?
