Week #11
Sunday
 St. Louis Rams at  Carolina Panthers (-7.5)
The Panthers woke up in the second half of the Monday night game. They’ll be awake for this whole game.
Panthers over Rams 23-20
 Cincinnati Bengals at  New Orleans Saints (-4.5)
The Bengals will start their playoff run against the Saints this Sunday.
Bengals over Saints 33-30
 Washington Redskins at  Tampa Bay Buccaneers (-3.5)
The Bucs will confuse the young Campbell, but it was still a good idea to finally start him and give him some much needed experience. It’s about time Joe Gibbs.
Buccaneers over Redskins 20-17
 New England Patriots at  Green Bay Packers (+6.5)
Favre’s not doing badly this year and he’s gonna be even better after upsetting the downtrodden Pats, losers of 2 straight and soon to be 3 straight.
Packers over Patriots 23-17
 Indianapolis Colts at  Dallas Cowboys (+1.5)
In a big game for Romo, he’ll choke. He’s young and inexperienced. It’s normal to have down games when so many eyes will be on this one.
Colts over Cowboys 31-21
 Tennessee Titans at  Philadelphia Eagles (-12.5)
The Eagles are very good, just a few close calls separates them from a great record.
Eagles over Titans 28-17
 Buffalo Bills at  Houston Texans (-2.5)
The Texans are looking real good as of late, whereas the Bills are still making too many mistakes and letting everyone and their mother run on them with ease. Takeo Spikes, where are you?
Texans over Bills 21-20
 Oakland Raiders at  Kansas City Chiefs (-9.5)
The Chiefs have playoff aspirations. The Raiders have nothing.
Chiefs over Raiders 23-3
 Pittsburgh Steelers at  Cleveland Browns (+4.5)
Some delusional Steelers fans think there’s a glimmer of hope now. After this game though, that glimmer will be dead for good.
Browns over Steelers 24-23
 Minnesota Vikings at  Miami Dolphins (-3.5)
The Dolphins can only pull off so many surprises before the emotional ride takes its toll.
Vikings over Dolphins 28-24
 Atlanta Falcons at  Baltimore Ravens (-4.5)
The Falcons are an up and down team and it’s time for an up week.
Falcons over Ravens 27-23
 Chicago Bears at  New York Jets (+7.5)
The Bears keep it up on their East coast swing.
Bears over Jets 30-13
 Seattle Seahawks at  San Francisco 49ers (+6.5)
With or without Alexander or Hasselbeck the Seahawks have shown they can beat teams. Especially bad teams like the 49ers. Frank Gore will keep it close though.
Seahawks over 49ers 30-28
 Detroit Lions at  Arizona Cardinals (-2.5)
It doesn’t seem the Cardinals will ever beat anyone again this season.
Lions over Cardinals 26-24
 San Diego Chargers at  Denver Broncos (-3.5)
Time for a good Broncos game and a good Plummer to do something.
Broncos over Chargers 24-21
Monday
 New York Giants at  Jacksonville Jaguars (-2.5)
The Jaguars aren’t that good, but they are much better than the over-hyped Giants.
Jaguars over Giants 20-17
