NFL Picks: Week 11

Dolphins over the Bills
Got this one wrong. I thought Miami had a little more offensive punch than what they've shown the past couple of weeks.

Falcons over the Cardinals
It's hard to see an inconsistent Arizona team being able to beat one of the best teams in the league at their own place.

Cowboys over the Browns
If Dallas loses this one Jerry Jones may actually hire fire himself  as general manager. Then he would hire Jerry Jones as the new G.M. because Jerry knows best.

Packers over the Lions
Could be a pretty good game. I know Calvin Johnson is not the TD machine he was last year but he still catches a lot of balls and Detroit is plenty dangerous.

Bengals over the Chiefs
I'm running out adjectives to describe A.J. Green. I'd watch the Bengals just to see him catch balls. Dalton's not bad but if Green had a top 5 QB, his numbers would be ridiculous.

Redskins over the Eagles.
Count me as one who doesn't believe in the rookie QB for the Eagles.

Bucs over the Panthers
After losing 3 of their first 4 games, Tampa has won 4 of their last 5. Their offense looks good and the rookie Doug Martin has been a big part of that. On the other hand, Cam Newton continues to underwhelm us.

Texans over the Jags
Perhaps the best team in the league against perhaps the worst team in the league. Although K.C. may have bone to pick with Jacksonville about that.

Rams over the Jets
Danny Amendola is back and Bradford couldn't be happier. Could the Rams actually be dangerous again?Might be too much to ask for. It would be nice to see them beat the Jets though. The weekly comedy show that has become NY Jet football is priceless.

Saints over the Raiders
This might be a bit of a stretch. The Raiders will be at home and the Saints still have no defense. But I would love to see the Saints continue to make people nervous.

Broncos over the Chargers
The Chargers used to give Payton Manning fits when he was with the Colts. He better hope that bit of history doesn't follow him to Denver.

Patriots over the Colts
The Luck story has been fun but Indy is visiting Tom Brady's house and that means another victory for the Pats.

Ravens over the Steelers
Leftwich at QB means the Steelers aren't favored at home.

Bears over the 49ers
I'm giving the Niners the edge in this one as well due to a backup QB. Jason Campbell is ok but in what looks to be a tight defensive battle, San Fran should have the edge.
