NFL Week 11

The church of sports fan is upon us and lets hope I can pick some winners this week after all the upsets last week.

For the rest of the season I will be rooting for the San Francisco 49ers because the New England Patriots own the rights to their first round pick in next year's draft. The rich keep getting richer.

Indianapolis and Pittsburgh are now in a dogfight for the second best record in the AFC because the Patriots are clearly not losing anytime soon (especially after drunk '72 Dolphins motivate them).

While in the NFC, Dallas and Green Bay are duking it out for the best record.

Picks:

Tampa Bay Bucs @ Atlanta Falcons - The Bucs are coming off a bye week and looking to keep their first place spot in the NFC South with Carolina and New Orleans not far behind. Joey Harrington sucks. Tampa Bay.

Cleveland Browns @ Baltimore Ravens - Nice divisional matchup between AFC North opponents with Kyle Boller getting the start for the Ravens. Last week he could not throw the ball 3 yards while warming up on the sidelines - did anyone else catch that clip? Anyway, Derek Anderson owns because he is on my fantasy team. Cleveland.

Arizona Cardinals @ Cincinnati Bengals - Amazingly, the Cardinals are still alive in their division, but then again they play in the NFC Worst. The Bengals like jail. Cincinnati.

Carolina Panthers @ Green Bay Packers - Did you know? If Vinny Testaverde starts opposite of Brett Favre, they will combine for the oldest age among two starting QBs in NFL history. Panthers are 9.5 point dogs, but have a good road record. Betting man, take the Panthers to cover. Green Bay.

New Orleans Saints @ Houston Texans - New Orleans laid an egg last week by losing to the winless Rams. The Texans will have Andre Johnson and Matt Schaub back. The Saints will rebound. Betting man, take the Saints as they are 1.5 point dogs. New Orleans.

Kansas City Chiefs @ Indianapolis Colts - "The Colts are done." That is all I have heard. Yes they lost Dwight Freeney, and Marvin Harrison is still out but Dallas Clark will be back to help Peyton Manning avoid 6 INTs this week. Chiefs are without Larry Johnson and will start QB Brodie Croyle (his wife is hot. Indianapolis.

San Diego Chargers @ Jacksonville Jaguars - Phillip Rivers sucks and will not be bailed out by six interceptions by the opposing QB this week. Maurice Jones-Drew is a human cannonball and went to UCLA. Jacksonville.

Oakland Raiders @ Minnesota Vikings - If this game was in Oakland I would pick the Raiders. And they are not starting JaMarcus Russell. Wait, wait. I remember what Daunte Culpepper did to Miami when he faced them. Oakland.

Philadelphia Eagles @ Miami Dolphins - Suck it '72 Dolphins. You should keep your mouths shut if you know what is good for your perfect season. Philadelphia.

New York Giants @ Detroit Lions - This is a tough one. Just when I think Eli has it all together he decides to resort to his old ways. The Lions are perfect at home this season. Detroit.

Pittsburgh Steelers @ New York Jets - No need to explain. Betting man take the Steelers as the 9.5 point favorite. Pittsburgh.

Washington Redskins @ Dallas Cowboys - Cowboys at home is an easy pick, especially against a divisional foe. Betting man they will cover the points as well. Dallas.

St. Louis Rams @ San Francisco 49ers - This week's suck off. Trent Dilfer will get the start over Alex Smith. Rams woke up for a game last week and will be able to score more than the Niners. St. Louis.

Chicago Bears @ Seattle Seahawks - I almost caught myself typing that the Bears will react positively to Rex Grossman getting the start, but then my fingernails began to throw up. Seattle.

New England Patriots @ Buffalo Bills - Betting man take the 16 point-favored Pats. New England.

Tennessee Titans @ Denver Broncos - Vince Young on a Monday night? Expect a decent game out of the kid, dare I say a fantasy football worthy performance. Tennessee.

Week 10 record: 5-9
Overall (started week 3): 63-49
