NFL Week 11 Predictions and Picks

NY Jets @ New England (-4) : First place in the AFC East rides on the outcome of Thursday night Jets / Patriots showdown, a game in which quarterback Brett Favre and Matt Cassel will take center stage. While Favre's status as "Pistolero" is legendary, Cassel is known as a quarterback more conservative, and if there is a strike against The Pats offense is that it has no capacity for big plays with Cassel.

"I take pride in taking risks," says Favre. "No one shot me I do not think I can do, or phone call. I am so free with my pass to me with the Packer game plans. Cassel is strictly by the book. His idea of "risk" is changing the snap count 'one' to 'two'. Lately, however, Cassel has shown some Tom Brady-like qualities. Randy Moss is looking for more, and he is dating a hand model, who I believe goes by the name 'Lefty'. "

While Cassel to Moss that the connection has not produced nearly the same number as did Brady to Moss connection, Moss has not complained at all, and he remained the professional accompli.

"I'm not sure what it means," says Moss, "but regardless of how comfortable I get with Matt, do not plan to 'consummate' anything with him. Oh, you mean the other consummated. I pulled. It is not often that I call the "consummate professional." You know it's a very sad state for wide receivers when I am the poster boy for good behavior. While other quarterbacks and receivers are criticizing coaches, or do cocaine in public, or praise ill-conceived planning by our president-elect, or the compilation with his coach, I'm going about my business. I am living proof that the most humiliating experience in football is a flight from Oakland. "

The Jets signed former cornerback Ty Law, not for their "take" but to "choose" your brain to Patriot trends. It is proof Eric Mangini that will go to any lengths to get a jump on his former boss, Bill Belichick, who will also go to any length, especially of 8 mm, a competitive advantage. If you like the collection of information semi-ethical methods, this is the game for you - "The Ice" Mangini against "The Voyeur Fantastic "Belichick.

Favre throws for two short touchdowns, and the Jets win, 24-21. After the game, Belichick coldly Mangini commended the breast lump dullest in the history of the NFL.

Denver @ Atlanta (-4 ½): The Broncos scored 21 fourth quarter points to beat The Browns 34-30 last Thursday, maintained his dominance of trembling Broncos game on the Chargers in the AFC West. Quarterback Jay Cutler and Denver's offense has shown be a highly dangerous, especially against horrible defenses, or while benefiting from egregious officiating error monumental. The Broncos probably will not see or when traveling Atlanta and the Georgia Dome, where the Falcons are 4-0.

"We will not take lightly," says Mike Smith. "Cutler's arm can not strongest in the history of recorded time, but certainly has the strongest arm on his body. And receiver Brandon Marshall is a powerful, capable of pulling off the catch of this air and presidential tributes from his pants. Say what you will about the shortcomings of the AFC West, but one thing is certain about this division - to be a team wild card advancing to the second round of the playoffs to winning West Coast division. "

Matt Ryan threw for 248 yards and two touchdowns last week against the Saints, and this Sunday, the Falcons will face a defense that has less to offer from the Saints.

"You must be referring to the 'resistance'," says Ryan. "What is softer? Brandon Marshall or the Bronco defense? With apologies to Joey Porter, who'd have to say the Bronco defense, a unit that considers a touchdown opponent a "stop." Technically, I believe that is true. As for Cutler, our defensive scheme is to show what some eyes saw in Cleveland, as 'coverage'. "

With a bye week, the Broncos have had time to make adjustments on the defensive. That means defensive coordinator Bob Slowik has rejected the "Cover Who?" defense in favor of a more specific defensive tactics. Fortunately for the Falcons, the new Denver defense Color is like a Rubik's Cube - easily solved. Atlanta wins, 31-21.

Minnesota @ Tampa Bay (-4): in Vikeså must travel if they are to claim the division crown.The Vikeså share the lead in the NFC North after a narrow 28-27 victory over Green Bay, made possible by a large day of Adrian Peterson and a dominant defensive effort that kept the Packers to 184 total yards. This formula of a strong running attack and solid defense is wh

"When this team stays focused," says Brad Childress, "which are dangerous. Staying focused in Tampa will be difficult, especially with a huge distraction as a ship, of all things, in the end zone. Pirate ship has always been there, or that the Bucs put it there in an attempt to revive a dire situation of this team has tried to leave behind? For the love of God, no one says "permission to come aboard."

"In light of Kevin and Pat Williams tests drug problems, I would expect nothing less than seeing a Whizzinator "on the other end zone. No, the 'Whizzinator' is not a cyborg murderer sent to earth to destroy any man who dares to try to pass a drug test. I'm talking about the device that allows you to walk to a drug test and easily whip a clean urine sample. "

The Bucs are 6-3, second in the NFC South, and 4-0 at home. A win over the Vikings depends on Tampa red zone efficiency. Too often this year, the Bucs have settled for field goals when the offense stalled inside the opponent 20-yard line.

"Our red zone offense has left me 'Kicking and Screaming,'" says Jon Gruden. "As for the University of Tennessee coaching job in-chief? I'm not interested. I am a highly paid professional coach. Why the hell would I do "volunteer"?

What is the plan for the Bucs? Load up the box, take Adrian Peterson out of the game, and the strength of Gus Frerotte to throw in man coverage. This is how the Tampa defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin that chiseled into a stone tablet. It is a narrow, but the Bucs win, 19-16.

NY Giants @ Baltimore (-6 ½): The 8-1 Giants are clearly the class of the NFC, while the emerging Ravens are tied with the Steelers first in the AFC North. Sunday's game in the Meadowlands will be a rematch Super Bowl XXXV, won by the Ravens 34-7.

"Although much has changed in Baltimore since," says John Harbaugh, "one thing has remained constant, and that's the presence of Ray Lewis in the center of defense. It's no fun looking through and seeing Lewis penetrating gaze staring back at you. Whether a Parchesi board, a panel of glass, or the line of scrimmage separating you and Ray, it's scary to know that your attention is all about you. It will be a test of wills when Eli Manning and Ray face. Manning is a master of hiding what you're thinking. That is usually because, regardless of the situation, he always looks confused. "

"I know the Ravens will come after me like a bunch of mad dogs," said Manning. "I hate to steal a line from the great Lawrence Taylor, but I do not know, I'm sure he has won his share of the lines in his day. We'll be ready to play, and I'm sure Plaxico Burress, at least, be in uniform. Ready to play? Maybe. Heck, one could only call a short pass to Plaxico pattern so Lewis can flatten it and make fun Plax Coughlin can coach. "

Baltimore's defense will keep them in the game, but in the fourth quarter, when the issues of big game experience, Manning Joe Flacco will not be the plays. Giants win, 19-10.

Oakland @ Miami (-11): Ricky Williams rushed for 105 yards, including a 51-yard touchdown, Miami's victory in last week's 21-19 Seahawks Williams' first 100-yard game since the 2005 season. With the victory, the 'Fins held a game AFC East leader behind the Jets and Patriots.

"Nothing will rejuvenate his career as a direct take some snaps from the center," says Williams. "It's like I discovered when I started a garden fluorescent lit" in my attic - everything is better without intermediaries. It's like my career has been resurrected or who have given me a breath of word of mouth of a new life. A few years ago, I think it would have called a "shotgun", which is exactly what they take pictures of the center today. Therefore, it seems that everything has come full circle. "

In Oakland, 'offensive ineptitude is the word, in spite of' Grease ' is the word in the hair of Al Davis. Last week, the Raiders managed only two field goals by Sebastian Janikowski in the 17-6 loss to the Panthers. Oakland has gone nine quarters a row without scoring a touchdown offensive.

"I guess you could say we can not score without Janikowski, Tom Cable said. "What bothers because I found that if you need Janikowski to 'score', then you're in trouble, most likely with the police in relation to slip certain substances into the drinks of unsuspecting co-eds. Maybe we should try that some opposing defenses. "

With a 2-7 record and comes from a dismal performance, the flight from Oakland to Miami will be long and arduous, especially because the plane charter lacks amenities like leather upholstery, personalized bedrooms, and an assistant named Renfield, amenities' hearse chartered Al Davis. Miami wins, 22-9.

New Orleans @ Kansas City (+4 ½):

"Do I have to say it again?" Says Edwards. "You play to win the game. I felt it was our only chance to win the game. There was no way our defense could stop his offensive fatigued. Do you think that an explanation cliché'd not a two-point conversion, when an extra point routine otherwise would have forced overtime? Well, it is. Who can say that has not received the ball and scored first, without our defense having to set foot on the field? I considered that, but I thought that our captains were too darn tired themselves to make the right decision in the coin toss. "

The Saints always play to win the game, which inevitably means having to score more than 30 points because the defense New Orleans was delivered at least that.

"Yes, we have defense issues," says Sean Payton. "But it is true that crimes clearly opposed can throw balls necklaces in our defense and expects an easier route to the end zone. However, it is true that Jeremy Shockey can pull a string of beads and go to "lose its top."

If the Saints were in another division, which could be reached best, but are in the South, home of the better defenses. I think it would be great in the "Wild West" division, because every game is a shootout. " New Orleans wins, 30-24.

Detroit @ Carolina (-14): Sure, the Panthers are 7-2 and leaders the NFC South, but is there any positive when their quarterback, Jake Delhomme, suffered through a 7-of-27, 72 yards, four-interception day in Carolina's 17-6 victory on Oakland?

"You want positive?" , John Fox says "I'll give you one. I'm sure it was the quarterback performance Panthers worst in history. Chris Weinke, you're off the hook. However, quarterback Jake rating was 12.3. That's positive. And I'm sure that the classification 12.3 Jake soon be established as the football equivalent of baseball's Mendoza Line '. "

The Lions lost to the Jaguars 38-14 Last week, falling to 0-9, as the new quarterback Daunte Culpepper was benched in the second quarter.

"Despite the result," says Rod Marinelli "We have made progress. We have shown that even without input from Matt Millen, the organization can still make bad decisions. Is not that exactly what a team desperately needs a spark? The addition of a stranger who has only playing time away from Drew Stanton, who can be their quarterback of the future? I would say however, had some great stories Culpepper Randy Moss, and his ship sex stories really lifted our spirits. "

As if fate Detroit needed more bad, soon to cross the roads more than fifty black cats. But in the tradition of Lion wise decisions will be implemented under ladder and breaking a mirror before them.

With a loss, the Lions could be facing the formal removal of the playoffs. With a victory, will suck. Carolina wins, 26-17.

Philadelphia @ Cincinnati (+9 ½): With its 36-31 loss to Giants last week, the Eagles could also grant the division crown to the Giants and delve into what it means to be a long battle for one of two wildcard positions. Philadelphia is 0-3 in the division and tied with the Cowboys in the last but with a record of 5-4.

"Do not dwell on the negative," says Donovan McNabb. "That does not leave much more than talk, but it is not good news - Wide receiver Hank Baskett announced her engagement to former Playboy Playmate and Girl Next Door Kendra Wilkinson, Hugh Hefner before stable. I can not wait to see her - fully clothed. Hefner even want to give away at the wedding. Hank wants to "take back before the wedding. If you're a fan of The Girls Next Door, then you are probably aware that Wilkinson was the girl with the annoying laugh, and also the author of the "Bolsa-ing Hef '."

Baskett and Wilkinson certainly seal their nuptials with a kiss, and Chad Johnson and Marvin Lewis have buried the persistent animosity with what has become almost a weekly kiss your account. The Bengals are fresh off his first win of the season, a 21-19 victory over Jacksonville in week 9, and enjoyed a break last week.

"We still have a long way to go," says Marvin Lewis. "A win is nothing to be satisfied. I myself am interested in seeing what comes first, our second win and Chad Johnson get to second base. You know, nothing Chad, but a hair. It's like when all these plans of touchdown celebrations and then does not even have. Foreplay is everything and no action. "

Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Johnson is sure to put the pressure on Cincinnati quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick. If Fitzpatrick can read these blitzes, then must find a lot of one-on-one duels with Johnson, TJ Houshmandzadeh, and Chris Henry. If not, he, like the Bengals, will drive. Eagles win, 28-20.

Chicago @ Green Bay (-4): The Bears and Packers lost last week, with Chicago fell to the undefeated Titans and Green Bay, dropping a heartbreaking 28-27 loss in Minnesota. The Teddy Bears Tennessee running game, but I could not stop Kerry Collins, while the Packers intercepted Gus Frerotte three times, but he hit on the ground by 192 yards from Adrian Peterson.

"Why challenge game-winning touchdown run by Adrian Peterson?" Says Mike McCarthy. "The same reason an idiot Wheel of Fortune contestant to buy a vowel when faced with the puzzle" Dumb_ss. I would like buy a A ',' Pat. I'm one of those known to go a little too far sometimes, whether obvious challenge a call, or by saying three times NFL MVP is not needed anymore. "

In Chicago, the "wheel" in question in the wheel of fortune Bears is the quarterback's right leg Kyle Orton field. Orton suffered a high ankle sprain against the Lions two weeks and declared that there is a chance to play this Sunday in Green Bay.

"Never I was much of a fan wheel, "says Lovie Smith," Although it was cool when former San Diego kicker Rolf Benirschke stay. I was more in line with Jeopardy, because you never had to know the answers, only questions. My quarterback situation is very similar to Jeopardy - Orton usually answers, and Rex Grossman, usually have questions like "There was security there?! Or" What do you mean middle linebacker knew where he was going to throw them to look at the eyes? '"

"'Kyle Orton. Who is my starting quarterback?

It's a game huge in the North, but not all, when three teams are separated by a game? Aaron Rodgers is for last week's game with two touchdown passes, and finally concludes that "security" is a misleading term for what happens when you are tackled in end zone for his opponent. Green Bay wins, 26-19.

Houston @ Indianapolis (-9): In a 41-13 blowout loss to the Ravens last week, quarterback Sage Rosenfels threw four interceptions, and the Texans lost their second straight game after falling 3-6 in the AFC South last.

"The vague and loosely defined common interpretation of the term in the state of Texas, "says Gary Kubiak," Sage is known as a "weapon of mass destruction." He is responsible for more selections of Yao Ming. "

The Colts went to Pittsburgh and emerged with a 5-4 record and renewed vitality that many expected them outmuscled advance by the Steeler defense. Peyton Manning threw for three touchdowns, and the Indy defense intercepted Ben Roethlisberger three times.

"2 Manning, Steelers 0, "Manning said." And these two points did not come from a supplement too out of the end zone. I realize that Big Ben was playing hurt, but not You can put these types of interceptions and expect to win, place or show, or keep your job. It was a satisfying victory, because in truth, I'm a little envious Ben's status as the highest paid player in the NFL. And, obviously, has a great insurance package that would make a Canadian jealous. Fortunately, I can supplement my meager income to support the loads of luxury consumer products. "

Colts win, 30-24.

St. Louis @ San Francisco (-3): After two wins 0-4 after a promising start, the Rams have lost three in a row and are again in turmoil. Jim Haslett sent to the bench quarterback Marc Bulger in the 47-3 loss last week to the Jets, but recently announced it would start Bulger against the 49ers on Sunday.

"If there's one quality I look at a quarterback," Haslett said, "is" decision ". At least I think so. Maybe. Let me think about it. Yes, 'decision'. That's the word. I think the whole organization might benefit by being more decisive. The word 'interim' is fully used much here. We have 'interim' coach, 'interim' quarterbacks, and the provisional fans. " But we left drop the provisions "of the title of Steven Jackson, right now, he's just a" thinking "without provisions" to it. "

0-2 Despite its new head coach Mike Singletary, the 49ers are playing with a new passion, and very close to breaking the Cardinals last Monday, losing 29-24. Singletary brings to his work the hard-nosed discipline of a middle linebacker and an enthusiastic relationship with his players. It has been proved that if necessary, to make a point, he lowered pants any time and place to do it.

"Well, employees at the Wal-Mart produce section would disagree with that statement," says Singletary. "But there's only one way I know how to check a melon for ripeness, and that's with their pants down. Call my unorthodox methods, I call 'Unortho-Dockers. "

San Francisco wins, 31-17. Then, Singletary addresses the media The Pants Off, Dance Off Fuse TV studios. On Monday, Mike Ditka welcomes 49ers win the abandonment by his pants on the set of the Monday night primetime.

Arizona @ Seattle (+3): With a record of 6-3, the Cardinals have opened a comfortable lead of four games on its three counterparts NFC West. In last week's 29-24 victory over the 49ers, Kurt Warner passed for three touchdowns as Arizona's high-powered aerial attack was once again unstoppable.

"Many people ask me, 'Kurt, why do you even bother to call the guys running plays?'" Says Warner. "They expect to respond with a certain symbolic response, such as' keeping the defense honest "or" to maintain the offensive balance. " Finally, I say to Larry Fitzgerald, Anquan Boldin and Steve Breaston to stop asking me that question all the time. So, I give them the honest answer: the reason we call play is for me to leave them audible. After all, we are "The Greatest Show on Turf retractable. '"

Arizona wins, 24-22.

Tennessee @ Jacksonville (+3): With their running game shut down by the Bears last week, the Titans were forced to take the air, and Kerry Collins responded with 289 yards passing and two touchdowns. One of the criticisms of Collins Tennessee's offense was that relied too heavily on short passes to tight ends and corridors. The Titans remained perfect, and will take their 9-0 record to face the Jacksonville Jaguars unpredictable.

"Kerry does not have a" consumption "problem" Jeff Fisher says, "nor has a" dinking problem. "

When the Jaguars have their running game started, they can beat anybody, or at least the Lions 0-8. Against the undefeated Titans, Jacksonville yards on the ground find it difficult to achieve.

"It's been a frustrating year," Jack Del Rio said. "This team is great one week and horrible the next, and horrible the next, then the next decent, then how bad it is. This team is like "Heaven and Hell." I do not know if I'm 'Jack Del Rio' or 'Ronnie James Dio. Besides that, I have to deal with an issue of insubordination by linebacker Mike Peterson, who is allegedly one of the leaders of this team. Guess what, Mike. It's my way or the highway. Be careful, or you'll my kicks on Route 86. '"

"Now, to turn this team around, I'll do something that has never been done by a trainer of the NFL. I will quote Eric Cartman of South Park and ask my players, "Respect my author-ity!"

If the Jaguars the team to end Titans undefeated streak? To answer that, ask yourself these hard questions - is a victory over the Lions as impressive? And it is a basket of 1972 Dolphins fruit really motivational? I can not find the team, coach Jeff Fisher be disappointed, and Tennessee's defense stands out in the arrest of the same things Jacksonville has to do to win. Tennessee wins, 23-13.

San Diego @ Pittsburgh (-3 ½): Ben Roethlisberger lost his duel with quarterback Peyton Manning last week, including three interceptions of Roethlisberger, essentially allows the Colts to 24-20 win in Pittsburgh.

"Big Ben struck '3 '" says Mike Tomlin. "In England, I think that means it's time for a cup of tea. In Pittsburgh, I think it means that it may be time for a change. Do I have the courage to bench highest-paid player in the league? Heck, I have the guts to go to a two-point conversion when not needed, so this decision should not be a problem. When all is said and done, putting our best quarterback in the field is the only option reasonable. Therefore, Hines Ward will be the starter. "

The Chargers are 4-5 and still in the hunt in the AFC West, chasing the Broncos 5-4. Front the Steelers No. 1-ranked rush defense, the Chargers may have to attack from the air.

"Philip Rivers is certainly capable of doing that," Norv Turner said. "I guess if the 1998 NFL draft had been slightly different, Peyton Manning could very well be the quarterback for the Chargers today. And the Colts would be living with the shame of the drafting of Ryan Leaf. It is unfortunate that the leaves could not do in the NFL. There are many more players analgesic request in the NFL here in the college game. "

Who Tomlin is chosen to start a quarterback? Fortunately, against the Chargers' mediocre defense, Roethlisberger and Byron Leftwich could do the job. At Heinz Field against the Chargers, quarterback be any very appropriate, especially when handing off to Willie Parker 20 times. Steelers won 27-20.

Dallas @ Washington (+1 ½): Tony Romo makes his return to the lineup after missing four weeks Cowboy with a broken pinkie, which the Cowboys lost two of three and the game was nothing short of "missing fingers bad." Now, with Romo back, the pressure to win is enormous, and a loss to the Redskins with Romo can lead the Cowboys to a breakpoint.

"Brad Johnson and Brooks Bolinger did everything possible," says owner Jerry Jones. "For his efforts, to be enshrined in the Cowboys Ring of Horror. "We are hoping and praying that the return of Romo will establish this team as a viable Super Bowl contender. In other words, I am saying is that the only reason this team sucks right now is due to the absence of Romo. If we had an issue at this time, it would be "Wrapped Around Your Finger "by the police. See, you can say "Police" in Dallas, not to mention the name "Pacman Jones. Now, excuse me, while I get my frustrations by putting on a white cotton suit and knocking over a lot of candles. "

The Redskins are 6-3, two games behind the Giants and one game ahead of the Cowboys and Eagles. The 'Skins were dominated by the Steelers in the last game, and coach Jim Zorn realizes another loss could send his team into a tailspin as a Cowboy.

"Have you noticed that nearly every bite" that the computer goes, "said Zorn." Almost each involves the performance of Tony Romo or someone close to him. If a fumbled snap, the bride wore a pink shirt with numbers, or a broken pinkie, Cowboys are all about Romo. And we believe that Terrell Owens is self-centered. "

"And Jerry Jones can speak to the sides of his mouth all you want about how Wade Phillips job is safe. Bull. The only reason Jones Phillips is still around so he can call it a 'Bum' Wade correct then he slyly and say you accidentally called him by his father's name. Just too much drama in Dallas. Even Ewing Oil seems to dominate in comparison. "

That's right. In Washington, you can save the drama for Obama.

Surprisingly, this is a defensive struggle Fur DC 'hold the Cowboys to a field goal until Joe Theismann operates from its own end zone in celebration, giving Dallas a security and the Redskins a 9-5 win. Sorry, that was 1978. In reality, Jason Campbell throws for a score, and guts out Clinton Portis 87 yards and a touchdown in the short field. DeAngelo Hall and Terrell Owens go head to head for the title of "the NFL MPP," Most petulant Player. "

Washington wins, 27-24.

Cleveland @ Buffalo (-4 ½): The Bills have lost three straight division games, clouding its promising 4-1 start to the season. In three weeks, Buffalo has gone from start to finish in the division, Dick Jauron giving cause for concern.

"Oh, I have no doubt that we will recover from this, "Jauron said." My real concern is that I'll never hear the song of the Goo Goo Dolls 'Slide' again without thinking of Johnny Rzeznik is making a sly critique of my coach. If so, I will forgive. How can you be mad at a guy wearing eyeliner? "

For the Browns, more than one player has accused the team of quitting in last Thursday's loss to the Broncos. Originally, Jamal Lewis made the accusation, and his claim was seconded by others, including Joshua Cribbs.

"The last thing this team needs is to separate into warring factions," says Romeo Crenel. "You have the Jets and the Sharks ... no, I mean the Bloods and Crips ... no, is the SOC and the greasers. Again, I'm wrong. In fact, we have" the accused quitting "on one side and" those who accused others of quitting "on the other side. Not good. Something like that can only end in tragedy. Ask my ex-girlfriend, Juliet. "

Therefore, the team is ready and / or capable of change? If you guessed "the team from the city on the shores of Lake Erie, "then you are correct. I say that fewer quit the Bills, and most importantly, the defense more. Or should I say, some of the defense. Bills win, 29-21.
