2. Holy shit - did I really pick Dallas on Monday?
Edited on Tue Nov-15-05 09:54 AM by kick-ass-bob
I was so doubly pissed when they won - I hate them AND I thought I picked Philly! :crazy:

Picks for week 11:

Arizona @ St. Louis - jeez, what a dud.
Carolina @ Chicago - Cats keep rolling
Detroit @ Dallas - how do I hate this pick, let me count the ways...
Jacksonville @ Tennessee - TN has beaten Houston and Baltimore, nuff said.
Miami @ Cleveland - this one's kinda tough.
New Orleans @ New England - I would not be picking NE if this was someone else...
Oakland @ Washington - who are these 2 teams?
Philadelphia @ NYGiants - Philly's done.
Pittsburgh @ Baltimore - the better question is: Will the Ravens break 10 pts?
Tampa Bay @ Atlanta - no last second heroics this time, Bucs.
Seattle @ San Francisco - no question.
Buffalo @ San Diego - This one is from remembering Buffalo's last west coast trip. I really WANT to pick them, but...
Indianapolis @ Cincinnati - reserving for a later post. I have to see how I feel about it. (Actually, I am waiting to see if Chad Johnson opens his yap. That'll guarantee an Indy victory.) :7
NYJets @ Denver - from what I saw against Carolina? I don't think so.
Kansas City @ Houston - if Houston had any kind of line - ANY!
Minnesota @ Green Bay - Minn is not getting 2 special teams scores again. (i'm not ruling out a INT return though!)

13. Adding my pick for Indy/Cincy
Indianapolis. The weather probably won't be bad enough for Indy to lose.

21. Wooo! Bears 7-3!
I didn't pick the Bears to win...but :woohoo:

So far (before the Sunday night game is over) - I'm 9-5 and KC is ahead.

Not too bad, considering...

4. I need a good week
9-5 last week did not help me out too much. I need 11 or 12 this week.

St. Louis over Arizon
Carolina over Chicago (This is going to be the a very close game)
Dallas over Detroit
Tennessee over Jacksonville
Cleveland over Miami
New England over New Orleans
Washington over Oakland (Only b/c it is in Washington)
NYGiants over Philadelphia (The Giants better avenge their worst game of the year, I mean 21 points on returns, come on)
Pittsburgh over Baltimore (This will be a massacre, Big Ben returns)
Tampa Bay over Atlanta (I will give Simms one more chance)
Seattle over San Francisco (The new king of the west)
San Diego over Buffalo (The best team not to make the playoffs this year, San Diego)
Indianapolis over Cincinnati (Preview of the AFC Championship?, but in Cinci, Game of the Week)
Denver over NYJets
Kansas City over Houston (Don't write off the Chiefs, they will spoil a few games, though this should be an easy win)
Green Bay over Minnesota (Which Favre is it. I am betting the old man kicks some ass)

5. Mine
St Louis (marginally better team than Az)
Chicago (used to the wind)
Dallas (hunch)
Jacksonville (another hunch)
Miami (are you kidding?)
New England (wish I could pick otherwise)
Washington (pure guess here)
NYGiants (they are very stung from last weeks loss)
Pittsburgh (Can't pick the Ravens until they get an offense)
Atlanta (another stung team with something to prove)
Seattle (Shaun Alexander)
San Diego (LT)
Cincinnati (my upset special for the week)
Denver (Mile High Stadium)
Kansas City (Houston's team sucks)
Minnesota (I hope I am right - they appear to be on a roll and GB defense is not nearly as good as NYG)

7. I picked against my Vikes, and they won!
As opposed to me picking them and them losing, which had happened more prior to that. So in that spirit,

Arizona @ St. Louis
Carolina @ Chicago
Detroit @ Dallas
Jacksonville @ Tennessee
Miami @ Cleveland
New Orleans @ New England
Oakland @ Washington
Philadelphia @ NYGiants
Pittsburgh @ Baltimore - Maddox is starting for PIT, right?
Tampa Bay @ Atlanta
Seattle @ San Francisco
Buffalo @ San Diego
Indianapolis @ Cincinnati
NYJets @ Denver
Kansas City @ Houston
Minnesota @ Green Bay

It pains me greatly to pick the Packers. But if the same team shows up that whomped the Falcons, they undoubtedly WILL beat the Vikes.

8. "Maddox is starting for PIT, right?"
Even if he is - it is Baltimore. Pittsburgh will score at least 17. Baltimore will at MOST score 14. :P

9. Yeah, but this same Baltimore team
put up 19 on them at their house, and only gave up 20, WITH Big Ben playing. Yeah, they'll probably lose this one too but it's conceivable it could be an upset.

Just heard McNabb is out this Sunday, so I'm reversing my pick and taking the Giants over the Eagles.

11. I predict every one of us comes up with the exact same predictions
Almost every one of these game is a mismatch. Time to improve your winning %. Just to keep things interesting, I'll pick the most likely upsets:
Possible upsets
OAK over WAS
PHI over NYG
MIN over GB

But for my actual picks I'll go with the defaults:

Arizona @ St. Louis
Carolina @ Chicago
Detroit @ Dallas
Jacksonville @ Tennessee
Miami @ Cleveland
New Orleans @ New England
Oakland @ Washington
Philadelphia @ NYGiants
Pittsburgh @ Baltimore
Tampa Bay @ Atlanta
Seattle @ San Francisco
Buffalo @ San Diego
Indianapolis @ Cincinnati
NYJets @ Denver
Kansas City @ Houston
Minnesota @ Green Bay

16. Oh hell no
Look, who have they played against who can play? JAX and PIT. Got spanked both times. They're good enough to beat an average team, then get exposed against the better teams.
