Week 11 Picks Part 2: Electric Boogaloo

Words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words words.

Washington (5-4) at Dallas (8-1)

The only chance that Washington wins would come with Joe Gibbs not taking his Alzheimer’s medication and forgetting to be at the game. Washington has the talent to put together an upset but if it happens it will be in spite of their coach. The more likely outcome for Washington involves leather, a ball-gag and Dallas telling them what to do.

New England (9-0) at Buffalo (5-4)

New England will win this game. If you need me to defend this pick you are goddamn retarded.

New Orleans (4-5) at Houston (4-5)

The Saints started the season by losing four in a row. Then they won four in a row. They just lost again so they need to lose three more times before they can win again. Andre Johnson is off of the injury list for the Texans and has like seven weeks worth of passes to catch. Hopefully Matt Schaub can see straight enough coming off of his concussion to pick apart one of the worst defenses in the league against the pass.

Oakland (2-7) at Minnesota (3-6)

With Adrian Peterson sitting on the sideline with a torn LCL, the Minnesota Adrian Petersons will essentially not put an offense on the field. This game will be a shootout between the Vikings’ defense and an Oakland offense held together by safety-pins and tape. I bet the defense scores more points. Note: this game will probably be hilarious.

St. Louis (1-8) at San Francisco (2-7)

I am picking St. Louis in this one. They finally managed to pull out a win last week and they can still come up with another one or two this season. This is one they should win. Did I mention that the Rams have a healthy Steven Jackson while the Niners are 25th in the league in rush defense and just lost their starting NT for a month? Note: this game will be on par with Oakland/Minnesota.

Carolina (4-5) at Green Bay (8-1)

Green Bay found a running back (Ryan Grant) who is actually good at running the ball and it only took them eight weeks. On top of that, the defense pitched a shutout last week against the Vikings and could easily do it again here against the Carr/Testaverde lead Panthers. The game goes to Green Bay but Farve will gunsling his way to two interceptions and everyone will still love him.
