Week 11 - 2009 Season

Ok, I'm off to another rousing start this week - lost that pick last night. Strange year so far - Teams that should BLOW others teams out of the water, LOSE. Teams that lose all their players WIN because of ref calls. If I didn't know better I would say the NFL was turning into the WWE - with pre-scripted endings no matter how real the playing on the field looks.

And coaching! Games are being lost because coaches that don't know how to coach or they can't coach properly because of all the snotty nose players now a days... We're not in Kansas any more Toto... maybe Rush is right... Oh well...

6 upsets in week 10 which brings that stat up to 48 upset games for the season which averages out to 4.8 up set games per week.

As usual my picks to win are in RED -

Atlanta at New York Giants - Giants have rested for a week now and hopefully they have gotten themselves together again and Eli ankle is better. Atlanta is not a good road team this year. Giants should sneak one in this week.

Indianapolis at Baltimore - Will the Colts be complacent this week after their huge come-back win last week? Baltimore can be tough but if Colts want to show they are Super-Bowl material they need to win this game. Colts win but probably by not more than 6pts.

Buffalo at Jacksonville - Buffalo is a mess, totally and now their on the road...

Cleveland at Detroit - How do you pick a winner from 2 losers? I can tell you that this game is going to be LOWWWWWW scoring and hopefully the Lions can get that extra FG to win this game.

Washington at Dallas - Contrary to rumors running about, Dallas is not going to blow Washington away, this is going to be a defensive game with scoring in upper teens. Dallas should come out on top

San Francisco at Green Bay - After that Tampa Bay game, GBs defense got a good chewing out and came on like stormtroopers against Dallas. With them still being at home this week they should play well again... GB also needs to win in order to keep their wild-card playofff chances alive.

Pittsburgh at Kansas City - Pittsburgh shouldn't have too much trouble with KC this week as long as they focus on the game and not take it to lightly - than they could find themselves in trouble.

Seattle at Minnesota - I'm still wondering why Seattle is only being given a 1% chance of winning this game. Anyways, this is the 2nd road game on a 3 road game trip for Seattle, which is not good, plus they can allow alot of pts. Mr. Favre and crew should come out on top by 10 or more pts.

New Orleans at Tampa Bay - N.O. just escaped last week with a win over St. Louis and now this is their 2nd road game in so many weeks. Tampa with Freeman at quarterback is a totally different team then weeks ago. I am going out on a limb here and I think Tampa Bay will pull off a win this week.

Arizona at St Louis - Arizona has to focus on this game to win but don't be surprised if St. Louis wins either.

Cincinnati at Oakland - Same thing for this game, these high powered teams have to focus and play hard against these lesser teams or else.

New York Jets at New England Patriots - Poor, Poor, Poor Jets - The Patriots revenge on them after last weeks mistakes vs Colts will be brutal...

San Diego at Denver - Denver certainly has fallen in the last 3 weeks, while SD has risen top side. Will home base help Denver? without Orton don't look for it this week...

Philadelphia at Chicago - I'll be honest here, I don't like McNabb, don't know why, never met him, never talked to him, never tweeted with him but for some odd reason the man just comes across to me as a ass! So that said, I'm picking for Chicago to win and if they again can focus, focus and offense can pick it up some what they should be able to do it... Chicago 21 - Philadelphia 17

Tennessee at Houston - Houston won the match-up earlier this season between them but only by 3pts & Tenn. was not playing Young. I truly believe things will be different this time around.
