Week 11 Picks Part One

I guess in reading Canada's picks that there were parts, and different leagues. Well anyways here is part one (even though I'm third to post this week).

Miami (0-9) @ Philly (4-5)

Philly has Donovan McNabb who's coming off a nice passing effort last week, and Brian Westbrook who sniffs out the endzone like I sniff out donuts in the house. Miami has the oldest defense created. And they are probably going to start rookie John Beck at QB. The only thing good Miami (compared to the rest of their team) has is Chatman at RB and an OK offensive line. Philly 44-Miami 10.

Arizona (4-5) @ Cincinnati (3-6)

Kurt Warner met with Brett Favre before the season to get that fountain of youth Kool-Aid, Brett clearly only gave him the light version. Arizona's offense has the high scoring capabilities, and a great matchup against a dismal Cincy secondary. However Arizona's D is not like the second coming of the steel curtain. Palmer has not preformed to "Palmer Like" potential as one Chris Collinsworth said earlier this year. Palmer does have one of his favorite endzone target in Chris Henry back. If Watson or Rudi can get the run established this week I see a good week for both teams (fantasy wise anyways). I expect a shootout Arizona 35 - Cincinnati 41.

San Diego (5-4) @ Jacksonville (6-3)

This will not be what everyone is hoping for. LT running all over Jacksonville and MJD doing the same over the Chargers D. There is a lot at stake in this game, Jacksonville with a win and Colts loss to the Cheifs could be in a tie for the division lead. The Chargers want to keep their distance atop the AFC West coming off a great victory against the Colts. I see this as a defensive game but San Diego comes out on top. SD 10- Jacksonville 7

Chicago (4-5) @ Seattle (5-4)

Chicago is bringing Rexy back...YEAH! Their defense is beat up with Nate Vasher still out but has been still playing well as of late. The Seahawks are getting back Branch with the offense firing on all passing cylinders. Look for Hasselbeck to throw early and often. If Sexy Rexy starts throwing deep however, Seattle could be in trouble. I say Chicago 24- Seattle 20.

Pittsburgh (7-2) @ New York Jets (1-7)

Here's an easy one. Steelers win. "Big Ben" throws for 5 TD's easy since they don't like to give Willie Parker any love any more. The Jets are terrible this year. If Miami does win a game I say there best chance is against the Jets next time around. Pit 42 - NYJ 14

NFL Week 11 Picks (part 3)

Lets get things crackin…

Apparently part 3 comes first where I come from. I was appointed the C group of picks, due in part to my apathy for essentially picking names out of a hat, and my desire to not be “that guy” who takes all the good stuff.

Cleveland Browns (5-4) @ Baltimore Ravens (4-5)

Two mediocre teams. One on the rise (Browns) and one on the decline(Ravens). If Boller can ignite the offense, the Ravens could pull through, but that is highly unlikely.
Prediction: 24 – 17 Browns

New York Giants (6-3) @ Detroit Lions (6-3)

A tale of two opposites. Everyone expected the Giants to be pretty much where they are right now while those same people expected that the Lions might be 3-6 at this time. Kitna predicted 10 wins for this team, and has more fire in his left testicle than Manning could muster up if he went Super Sayan. Expect tight game.
Prediction: 31 - 27 G-Men

Kansas City Chiefs @ Indianapolis Colts

The Colts will not lose three in a row. Just like the would not lose two in a row. I think people are more intimidated by the thought of Peyton Manning than his actual prowess. The loss of Dwight Freeney is killer, and the addition of Simeon Rice might actually make them even worse. Sadly, not bad enough to lose to the Chiefs. Despite having a pretty solid defense, the Chiefs just can’t seem to put points of the board, and even an Adam Vinatieri meltdown won’t help them.
Prediction: 19 – 34 Colts

Tennessee Titans @ Denver Broncos

Tennessee is chasing Indy, and Denver is chasing Travis Henry. Its ok Travis. If I could make millions of dollars, smoke lots of weed, and have sex with EVERYONE…I would too. Too bad your teams sucks, and you’re going to be suspended. The Broncos beat three pathetic teams, and stole one from the Steelers, while Tennessee is a key piece or two away from seriously contending with the Colts for the best in the South. Expect an entertaining game…if you hate Denver
Prediction: 33 – 20 Titans

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-4) @ Atlanta Falcons (3-6)

I could not care less about any two teams than I do the Falcons and the Buccaneers. I seriously forget Tampa Bay has an NFL team sometimes, and since the departure of Michael Vick, Atlanta has become a round robin of “who can we fit into this team to make it better”. The answer is obviously…no one. Just because Atlanta has become so pathetic…
Prediction: 17 – 13 Bucs
