NFL Week 11

Week 11 Is here!

Thoughts from Week 10:

1. It's official, Dak is now the unchallenged starter, even with Romo returning. He is now the backup. I've always been a Tony fan, thought he was the scapegoat for a lot of the problems of Dallas, but when you're the QB, that's the life. He probably won't be on the roster next season, but when you're injured routinely, you had to figure eventually this day would come. Best of luck, Dak.
2. Sorry Seahawks fan, a win in New England does not make up for your Super Bowl loss two years ago, nice try though.
3. Browns. You aren't disappointing me.
4. Time for the #1 pick to play, Jared Goff. He makes the 6th rookie to play tho season. Probably couldn't have picked a worse opponent to start against. The Dolphins defense gets after the QB.
5. Ezekiel Elliott might be a beast, but let's give it up for the Offensive Line that rarely gets the love.
6. Raiders and Chiefs and Broncos. All 6 wins or more. What a dogfight of a division they have going on right now.
7. Sorry Vikings, it will get worse before it even gets 1/2 a step better.
8. Titans, they might be one of the scariest, most underrated teams no one is talking about. That 47 point outburst, look closer at the numbers. Their running game is ridiculous.
9. Eagles are your typical birds. One week they fly low enough to be hit by a car, the next week they fly high enough to avoid being sucked into the engine of a 737.
10. 49ers just quietly lay there and let the season consume you and draft a QB, offense/defense next year.

Thursday November 17th

(NBC) Saints (4-5) at Panthers (3-6)- I didn't expect the Panthers to be this bad, so let that be a lesson to you folks...the Post Super Bowl loss hangover curse is real. No way you go from a dominant team to a terrible team in the span of 10 months. But here we are. They just lack a lot of components to be a good team. Maybe they were a product of a bad schedule last year. Either way, they are not good. Saints on the other hand, a few bounces here, a few points there, they aren't terrible. Should be a high scoring affair. Saints 27, Panthers 24

Sunday November 20th

(CBS) Steelers (4-5) at Browns (0-10) - Well, you know how I feel. Steelers 34, Browns 6

(CBS) Ravens (5-4) at Cowboys (8-1) - Alright, I am very reluctant to pick the Cowboys. I know that one of these games, they will lose. I picked against them last week because I genuinely felt the Steelers were better, although that game did not disappoint. The Cowboys, are playing great. Defense, which they will have to address in the offseason, is doing just enough to win. the Ravens, for what it's worth, they aren't bad. A few bad bounces in the four games and they could have at least a 7-2 record. Should be another good game. Cowboys 27, Ravens 20

(CBS) Jaguars (2-7) at Lions (5-4)  - Lions could take a commanding lead in this division. I don't think that the Vikings (opponent Cardinals) or Packers (opponent Redskins) will win this weekend. The Lions can grab a two game lead in the division, which we know is huge. Lions 34, Jaguars 17

(CBS) Titans (5-5) at Colts (4-5) - I don't think the Titans are a fluke team, and they will prove it against an inept Colts defense. We will see a shootout. Titans 41, Colts 34

(FOX) Bills (4-5) at Bengals (3-5-1) - The Bengals season...is over. They would have to win out to make the playoffs, and even then with the AFC West with three teams with 6 wins or more, they would have to win the division. So the Bengals will not be in the playoffs. Bills, too. Should be a defensive game. Bills 17, Bengals 13

(FOX) Buccaneers (4-5) at Chiefs (7-2) - Again, one of the quiet under the radar teams, the Chiefs, are playing great football. The Bucs, not so bad either. They already have more wins than I thought they would. Won't matter this week, as the Chiefs should control the tempo and scoreboard. Chiefs 24, Bucs 13

(FOX) Bears (2-7) at Giants (6-3) - The Giants, whether you want to think they are lucky or not, have played great and put themselves in position to win the division OR at least grab a wildcard spot. The Bears, well they will be in the market for several positions this offseason. Giants 34, Bears 10

(FOX) Cardinals (4-4-1) at Vikings (5-4) - My, how the mighty have fallen. Both at one point were believed to be contenders, but now both are trying to salvage their seasons. Vikings have lost four in a row. The Cardinals well they fluctuate more than the Dow lately. Cardinals should squeak out a win. Cardinals 24, Vikings 20

(FOX) Dolphins (5-4) at Rams (4-5) - The Rams are finally going to start Goff, but against a team that gets after the QB. Sure Goff may show some flashes of being worthy of the number one pick, but the first game in, well he won't be winning his first game. Dolphins 21, Rams 16

(CBS) Patriots (7-2) at 49ers (1-8) - No time to bounce back from a loss, like against a team that you should absolutely pummel. Patriots 44, 49ers 13

(CBS) Eagles (5-4) at Seahawks (6-2-1) - I will say this, and shut up, Seahawks fans, the Seahawks are poised to lose this game. Why? Nothing like winning a game you really shouldn't have, and then go home and play down to the competition. Yes they've done it before. I think the Eagles steal one in Fish City. Eagles 20, Seahawks 17

(NBC) Packers (4-5) at Washington (5-3-1) - Washington is playing great. Packers are not. They are not good. The defense is bad. The offense sputters. I can see Washington beating them. Washington 34, Packers 28

Monday November 21st 

(ESPN) Texans (6-3) at Raiders (7-2) - Primtime game, time to see if the Raiders live up to what they can accomplish this season, and for seasons to come. Raiders 31, Texans 

Happy NFL Week 11!
