Too many upsets last week. Thanks to Aqua for the stats update. I am having a lot fun doing this. In the words of the immortal Bill Belichick............"Onto week 10"
CIN @ BAL.........CIN for the upset
PITT @ CLE.........NCAA div. III matchup ....CLE for the win. By 3
CHI @ DET ...........7-1 Detroit in the Motor City ......DET baby by 21
LAC @ GB.........GB in Lambeau, another 3 pointer
LV @ MIA..........Raiders are pumped but MIA at home for the win by 14.
NYG @ WAS.........Snore .......WAS , by 3
DAL @ CAR..........This is gonna be ugly. DAL by atleast 40
TEN @ JAX........JAX to rebound this week. Nothing big , by 7
ARI @ HOU ......No way Arizona wins 2 in a row.....HOU by 10
TB @ SF ............TB and Baker magic by 3
NYJ @ BUF ........NYJ might actually pull this off
SEA @ LAR ......LAR by 7
SNF :::MIN @ DEN....No way Denver wins 2 in a row...SKOL : MIN
MNF :: PHI @ KC.......could be a preview of SB but I hate Mahomes: PHI
10-4 last week, not sure how it happened but I'll take it!!! I'll be home this weekend so I should catch the majority of the games. I'll be at home though since Formula 1 is racing this weekend & I want to be out of the traffic generated. Thank goodness the Falcons aren't playing since they win when I don't pick them and lose when I do. My Broncos are showing signs of life FINALLY. Granted they have been close wins these past 2 games but I'll take it!
Week #11
Bengals @ Ravens
Steelers @ Browns
Bears @ Lions Chargers @ Packers
Raiders @ Dolphins
Giants @ Commanders Cowboys @ Panthers
Titans @ Jaguars Cardinals @ Texans
Buccaneers @ 49ers
Jets @ Bills Seahawks @ Rams
Vikings @ Broncos-SNF I know Vikings are on an upswing but I can't pick against my team right now & I need some hope lol!
Eagles @ Chiefs-MNF I'll miss this game, working Monday night!
I Double Checked the schedule so that I do not choose a third team. My day got easier, so I can do this now, although that means we are working Monday through Wednesday next week (not seeing any one on Thursday Friday or the weekend) SO That is going to cram a lot of cases into three days....
Bengals @ NEVERMORE, BALTIMORE RAVEN CROWS (Already Picked) The Crows continue to burn my picks while the AFC North is the strongest division. If the teams do not cannibalize each other with multiple division games to go, then as it sits now, 4 teams from the division would make the playoffs.
Steelers @ BROWNIES Here is another one I am taking the edible Brownies at home but of course rooting for the Steelers. I think the Brownies Defense is the key. No DeShaun Watson, no comment on how it happened either. And I checked and YES the BROWNIES are in Fact hosting this game.
Bears @ DETROIT ROCK CITY LIONS Da bears get their regular QB back which is likely not a good thing in the grand scheme of things. The Rock City Lions are starting to gel as a team and should continue into a home day advantage on both Thanksgiving and the first round of playoffs.
Homeless Skid Row Chargers @ ACME PACKERS Something tells me that the Packers will just get lucky here against the homeless Chargers, who I loathe.
Raiders @ MY FINZ A classic old school matchup, look for high scoring, lots of TDs and a win for my FINZ !
New York Football Giants @ REDSKINS I just could not watch this if it were on TV...
COWBOYS @ Panthers Blow out of the week, would not be surprised if Dak put 50 against a bad Panthers defense. IF the NFL is truly rigged, and some believe that it is, then the Cowboys will put up 70 so that the league can use that as a marketing tool for when they play My Finz on Christmas Eve.
Titans @ JAGUARS Remember the Titans are getting so bad that the coach will be on the pink slip list in January, and Trevor Lawrence finally has a system that works for him.
PESKY RED BIRDS @ Texicans Kyler Murray visits the Lovie Smith show for a video game demo prior to the crummy game of the week. Little Kyler Murray, who, due to a knee surgery, is now only 4'9" tall, led his team to a victory in last week's birds attack. This week thankfully, we have no bird violence on the slate this week.
Buccaneers @ MANIAC's 49ERS. People here in the Tampa area have been misled by the local media to think that the Pirates are somehow better than they are and that Baker Mayfield is somehow All-Pro material. Well, if he is so good, then why are there no commercials starring Baker Mayfield? Hmmmm? The good and right thing to do, on the Sunday before Thanksgiving, would be for the 49ers to get 500 yards on offense just to bring the Gulf Coast of Florida back to reality, which is that Todd Bowles and this team are NOT any good.
La Guardia Grounded Jets @ BILL's BUFFALOES When they made the schedule, they probably thought Aaron Rogers and Josh Allen tied for first place would be a great game. BUT now, the Buffaloes are so frustrated that they fired the Offensive coach, while Aaron Rogers is now the QB coach for the Jets. Not sure who to pick here, coin flip says Buffaloes.
SEAHAWKS @ Rams Pete Carrol wants home field advantage, and to get that, he must win out against teams like the Rams and the Pesky Red Birds as well as against the 49ers next time. SO this is a big road game against a banged up Ram herd.
Vikings @ BRONCOS GREY CUP Action kicks off prior to this game, as the ALOUTTES look to be the magic team over Jason and the Argonauts.... Sine that is a 6 PM start, I will not be able to watch this game. BUT I really think that the Broncos are finally starting to figure out which way to move the ball, and the Vikings, being unable to mount a siege in the altitude and thin air of Denver, will fall by a few points.
-----------A SUPER BOWL REMATCH------------------
Eagles @ CHIEFS First time this season that a Super Bowl rematch with both teams being in first seed if the playoffs ended today. While not a classic rematch like say the Packers and Raiders, I look forward to seeing what Peyton and Elo come up with for their show. Watching those tow has made Monday Night Football good again.
Byes: Colts, Falcons, NEW EVIL PATRIOTS, Saints Jokes about how many turkeys Mike McCarthy will eat next Thursday and How Bill O'Bozo has ruined the Patriots offense.
My Old Lady has this cool recipe and it is so easy.
First, he has me go out in the back in about April and plant sweet potatoes in our potato box. Then I have my youngest son go out and dig them up two weeks before Thanksgiving. We let them cure for 10 days, getting the skins and flavors just right.
And she peels Slices and chops a few of them and puts them in an open baking dish, then into the oven with 2 tbs brown Sugar and 2 TSP cinnamon for 30 to 45 minutes at 400 degrees until soft. She then adds butter, mashes them up, covers them with MARSHMELLOWS and puts them back in for about 1-2 minutes under the Broil. The MArshmellows melt but do not scorch and then onto the Thanksgiving Buffet.
Do we want to start the week 12 topic a little earlier than normal?
Many folks are going to be on vacation or otherwise running around next week.. Thanksgiving seems to be a time when a lot of people forget to get their picks in.
While there would certainly be no requirement to put your picks in early.. Maybe having the topic available for those who know they're going to be out or running around so that they can make their picks before Tuesday?
