Mina Picks Hawks

[Ostatehawk]

I am unclear if she actually knows anything about football - but she is hot - and picked the Hawks tomorrow.


According to ESPN analyst Mina Kimes, the Steelers are walking into a losing situation against the Seahawks. She spoke on her podcast about the matchup and declared emphatically that Seattle was her pick in Week 2.

“I’m taking Seattle,” she said. “I didn’t take Seattle last week, to be clear. I picked the Niners. And for me, I just think this Mike Macdonald defense is going to, I’m not saying that the Steelers’ offense last week was fool’s gold because I think that is how they’re going to win against a lot of defenses.”

While she acknowledged the positives from the Steelers’ offensive performance in Week 1, Kimes believes the Seahawks defense is a much tougher test. After betting against them the week before, she’s taking the Seahawks because they won’t allow any of the “easy stuff” the Jets allowed.

“I just think this defense is going to be a lot better at taking away some of the things we saw, the easy stuff against the Jets,” she explained.

I'm a Hawk fan and I support this message.

She knows a lot about football

Mina is a Seattle sports icon and legend. She’s very knowledgeable about football and is someone I enjoy listening to.

I like the Seahawks for different reasons the biggest is the Steelers run defense. I am expecting Seahawks to rush for at least 150 yds

I think Pitt wins the game. They're a tough out at home, and Rodgers looked good last week. Their defense wasn't what I'm used to seeing with the Steelers, though. Having said that, this wouldn't be a shocking upset by any stretch of the imagination for me. I'd put it in the bit-of-a-surprise category.

PS> I like Mina. Real smart, real well informed, and not obnoxious at all. She's in that group of pundits that I enjoy listening to as an NFL fan.
