NFL Picks Week 11

New York Jets (6-3) at New England (6-3)- One of the better NFL Network games in the past couple years in this classic rivalry where the Pats have owned the Jets in the recent future. I think this trend will continue tonight as you get Brett Favre coming on four days rest hasnt been good thing see Dallas last year. NE 28-17

Denver (5-4) at Atlanta (6-3)- A big matchup this weekend between the Broncos and the Falcons as Bill Simmons of ESPN.com called Matt Ryan "his first-half MVP." Which is surprising yet I think he is definitely in my top three. I am going to go with the Falcons based off the way the pass defense played against New Orleans and West-to-East hasnt been kind this year. ATL 31-24

Philadelphia (5-4) at Cincinnati (1-8)- The Eagles get easy pickings as they play the Sisters of the Poor this weekend and the Eagles like their nickname take advantage of their weak prey. PHI 41-6

Chicago (5-4) at Green Bay (4-5)- I was going to have a big article on why the Packers are 4-5 but I feel I will wait if it gets any uglier. Anyways, Lovie Smith has owned the Packers since he has arrived in Chicago (7-1) but there is a new sheriff in town in Aaron Rodgers so that will change Sunday. Also look for Ryan Grant to get the ball, alot. GB 24-17

Houston (3-6) at Indianapolis (5-4)- I took the Colts/Texans both in upsets last weekend and the Texans got their asses kicked. Now they have to play a Colt team that is picking up steam, granted the Texans have been a thorn in the Colts side the last couple of years, no such luck this week. IND 31-3

New Orleans (4-5) at Kansas City (1-8)- Now the Chiefs lost another close game so you would hope that Sean Payton is telling his bunch not to get too confident heading into to Arrowhead. The Chiefs pass defense isnt that bad which is all the Saints have for an offense and I got a gut feeling the Chiefs pull one out. KC 20-17

Oakland (2-7) at Miami (5-4)- See the nice thing about being the worst team in football last year and now having a soild year this year is you get a pretty easy schedule as the second worst team in football in my opinion where they release guys who they pay twice the amount for. The Phins will roll in this one. MIA 34-7

Baltimore (6-3) at New York Giants (8-1)- The Ravens may be the worst 6-3 team I have seen this year still not impressed, I think I have picked them to lost against Oakland and Houston. The Giants on the other hand look like the best team in the NFC by leaps and bounds will get some revenge for the Super Bowl loss six years ago. NYG 35-21

Minnesota (5-4) at Tampa Bay (6-3)- In a game both teams need pretty bad, you get an old NFC Central clash. Adrian Peterson looked like a man possessed last weekend and if he keeps that up all year, he could very well carry the Vikes to a playoff berth but you know Brad Childress will screw it up. The Vikings never played well down in Tampa and I see the trend continuing this weekend as the Bucs have had two weeks to prepare. TB 23-14

Detroit (0-9) at Carolina (7-2)- Nothing finer than being a Carolina fan. Oakland, now Detroit, granted they did lay an egg against the Raiders but nothing like that will happen at home. CAR 27-9

St. Louis (2-7) at San Francisco (2-7)- Well this game is about as boring as watching paint dry although its Mike Martz's old ball club so I will look for him to put it on his old club. SF 27-14

Arizona (6-3) at Seattle (2-7)- God I would be 6-3 if my team was in the NFC West, but the Cards have looked good in most games they played and Kurt Warner is having the type of season Favre had last year. They will dominate again this week. ARI 35-10

San Diego (4-5) at Pittsburgh (6-3)- WHY MUST WE WATCH ANOTHER STEELER GAME! Anytime the Steelers are on prime time, I am refusing to pick them. Despite my theory on going west-to east it doesnt matter as I think Big Ben is hurt more than we think. SD 17-13

Tennessee (9-0) at Jacksonville (4-5)- The Titans are still unbeaten and this game could be season-changer for the Jags if they can win although I think you will see the Titans remain unbeaten as the Jags dont have enough to keep up with them in four quarters. TEN 24-14

Cleveland (3-6) at Buffalo (5-4)- Both teams are heading down the toilet quick, as the Browns got much hype in the off-season and they havent lived up to whatsoever. The Bills proved why they arent worth the hype either as they lost three straight against the AFC East, good news this isnt against the AFC East. BUF 21-14
