Week 10 record
7-7
Season record
68-46 (I started picks in week 3)
So after my 10-3 week a few weeks ago I’ve gone on a mediocrity tear. I’ve been pretty accurate with my upsets, but other than that I’ve basically looked like crap. Let’s get this turned around!
Here’s my picks for Week 11!
Indianapolis at Tennessee
Tennessee lost Jake Locker for the season last week, and I think their season was just lost for the season as well. I can’t see the Colts losing to Ryan Fitzpatrick a week after getting cock-tapped by the St. Louis Rams.
Pick: Colts
New York Jets at Buffalo
The Bills are reeling, and now they’re already making excuses for losing games they haven’t even played yet by complaining about scheduling. Shut up Doug Marrone, just admit you suck. It has nothing to do with teams coming off a bye or a 10 day week. And why does Mark Sanchez have to be hurt? I miss making fun of him.
Pick: Jets
Baltimore at Chicago
Josh McCown gets the start for the Bears in a must win game for both teams to keep playoff hope alive. The Bears are down Tillman, and the Ravens are just stuck in a mediocre stand still right now. They barely beat the Bengals last week, and I see them barely losing this week. Close game.
Pick: Bears
Cleveland at Cincinnati
Cincinnati lost last week, that means they’ll win this week. The Browns have been playing fairly well as of late, but I think the Bengals keep their “one week good one week bad” mentality.
Pick: Bengals
Washington at Philadelphia
The Eagles are coming off a game they should have won by a lot more, the Redskins are coming off a game that they never should have lost. I see Washington’s defense actually coming to play this week, and I see Foles coming back to Earth.
Pick: Redskins
Detroit at Pittsburgh
This game is picked out of pure spite. Fuck you Detroit. Fuck you Jim Schwartz.
Pick: Steelers
Atlanta at Tampa Bay
I can’t call it an upset to pick the Bucs because the Falcons are horrible this year. I can’t see them stopping the tumble down the rabbit hole.
Pick: Bucs
Arizona at Jacksonville
Jacksonville finally won, and Arizona is coming off a good win against the Texans. I said I wouldn’t pick Jacksonville at all this year, but I’m drinking the Kool-Aid because I thought this was going to be the game they won this year. I can’t believe I’m picking the lowly Jaguars to win a game. Upset Pick of the Week
Pick: Jaguars
Oakland at Houston
I have a hard time picking Houston this week. They lost to the Cardinals. I mean c’mon! Oakland is coming off a bad loss, and I see them playing better this week.
Pick: Raiders
San Diego at Miami
Miami hit rock bottom last week. I think the Incognito/Martin situation cast a shadow over the franchise that was tough to shake. That will have cleared a bit by Sunday, but that won’t change the fact that the offensive line is absolutely horrible.
Pick: Chargers
San Francisco at New Orleans
Is there anyone that can stop New Orleans right now? Say what you want about Denver and KC, but I think the Saints are the team to beat in the NFL right now. I don’t think Kap gets it done.
Pick: Saints
Green Bay at New York Giants
The Packers played valiantly against the Eagles, but in the end they still have Scott Tolzien at QB. The Giants defense isn’t great, but they should be licking their chops this week.
Pick: Giants
Minnesota at Seattle
Christian Ponder looks in line to start this week. That’s all I needed to hear.
Pick: Seahawks
Kansas City at Denver
Easily the game of the week, the unbeaten Chiefs travel to the mile high city. This game has been anticipated for a month. I hope Peyton’s ankles hold up. The Chiefs D will be coming after him, but in the end, the Chiefs offense doesn’t scare me enough.
Pick: Broncos
New England at Carolina
Carolina has been cookin’ the last few weeks. I think this game starts their fall from playoff contention and the demise of Ron Rivera.
Pick: Patriots
Bye Week: Dallas, St. Louis
