Hey, at least one of these network pregame shows is going to be right.

Melissa Stark, Brian Billick, Malcolm Jenkins, Shaun O’Hara and Michael Robinson all picked the Steelers to win:

The good news (if this sort of thing matters to you) is that ESPN’s pregame show saw things completely different.

That’s Trent Dilfer, Chris Berman, Randy Moss, Charles Woodson and Matt Hasselbeck who see the Chiefs winning the game.
