Note: ALL of the week's picks must be in before kickoff of the first game from here on out. Blame NFL Network and their desire for Thursday night games.

Are you serious? I don't mind making picks before kickoff, but there's a good reason to make picks before Sunday's game starts... especially with the injury report hanging around.

The rules better change on that (especially when Thanksgiving is a 3-game Thursday special), because really, it's not hard to keep track. Major things can happen within 2-3 days before the Sunday game, and I'd swear you're only doing this because you're not doing so hot.  :tongue:

It is not like it matters for the MNF game, given that most things are pretty much set the day before, despite the non-playing.

With that said,  :lame:

Quote
Ravens @ Falcons (Thursday)

Falcons - It is a tough call, but the Falcons play better @ home.. despite the good Ravens d.

Quote
Lions @ Bills

Bills - Lions are better with Stafford, but his oft injured state plus they are the dome team on the road, doesn't help.

Quote
Vikings @ Bears (division)

Bears - I don't think Cutler would do well, but I'd think Favre would do much worse.

Quote
Jets @ Browns

Jets - Despite the pick, I hope the Browns win.

Quote
Bengals @ Colts

Colts - The Bungles trend will continue...

Quote
Titans @ Dolphins

Titans - There's something to the strangeness that the fish cannot win @ home...

Quote
Panthers @ Buccaneers (division)

Bucs - It's sad that John Fox will be fired, but this season is not meant to be.

Quote
Texans @ Jaguars (division)

Jags - I don't like this pick, so I've deferred to the home team.... coming off a bye.

Quote
Chiefs @ Broncos (division)

Broncos - One would hope Josh McDaniels keeps his job... but that would fail if his team doesn't win coming out of a bye.

Quote
Cowboys @ Giants (division)

Giants - DISASTER ON FOX (late game of the day)

Quote
Seahawks @ Cardinals (division)

Cards - Although I think the Seahawks will do a little better than their crap game @ home last week, a rookie QB on the road = disaster.

Quote
Rams @ 49'ers (division)

49ers -  Both teams are coming off a bye, and one would hope the 49ers figure something out, but it's also tough to pick a rookie QB on the road too... very tough pick.

Quote
Patriots @ Steelers

Steelers - I'm hoping for the reverse lock, but I'm seriously hoping this game is competitive.... wtf was NBC thinking with the Cowboys....

Quote
Eagles @ Redskins (division, Monday)

Redskins - I don't like this pick, but one would hope a Shanahan run team would be better off a bye.... especially after that fun controversy in Detriot.

It won't, and it's something I meant to mention before the season started. I'll take the blame for that, and yes, this is short notice. I'll take the blame for that, too. Nobody likes being put on the spot. I suppose I should've given this week as a leeway period, and I should've announced this on Sunday, so everyone knew with enough time to adjust. Ahh well. :shadow:

I'd just axe your "non-week" record, but that's not even impressive.

There's no reason why that rule in in play, despite this is not serious or anything we're going to win (other than being able to show Favre's package :P)

How's about a small bet? If I win record-wise this year, we change that rule next year, so that picks for Thursday through Saturday games (I'm not sure if the NFL is doing any more Saturday regular season games like some years ago) can be made separate from the Sunday+Monday picks.

The fact is, there's no benefit in doing the picks earlier other than the TNF+Thanksgiving games early (because of the insane desire of the NFL to be on almost every day). If say for example Brett Favre was going to be pulled from a game because of injury between Thursday and Sunday, I'm willing to bet you would want change your pick. However, with the current rules in place, I guess if you feel like this "is fair", I will find a way to poke at this fail in logic.

I understand your point about "things can happen".  It kind of cuts a little bit of an advantage to how you figure out your picks.

But hey, it's just easier to make all your picks at once and not so much of a mess in the NFL thread, if you ask me.

Jets and Browns had an interesting epic game, where it came down to the very last play ftw. (Jags had a similar game, w/o OT, but I didn't get to see it.)

With that said if some of you were able to make normal picks at the normal time, you wouldn't have picked the Vikings since they failed MISERABLY. Congrats!  :tongue:

Records going into SNF:
Leno: 6-6
Gil: 6-6
Me: 9-3

Only diff left is Leno picking the Eagles over the Redskins.

Blah Seahawks... the Cowboys-Giants game was not competitive... but just the outcome anyone thought was the case.

So, congrats Leno, you had your way.

Week 11 schedule:
Bears @ Dolphins (Thursday)
Bills @ Bengals
Lions @ Cowboys

Cardinals @ Chiefs
Packers @ Vikings (division)
Texans @ Jets
Ravens @ Panthers
Browns @ Jaguars
Raiders @ Steelers
Buccaneers @ 49'ers

Colts @ Patriots
Giants @ Eagles (division)
Broncos @ Chargers (division, Monday)
My picks: Bears, Bengals, Cowboys, Titans, Chiefs, Vikings, Jets, Ravens, Jaguars, Steelers, Buccaneers, Saints, Falcons, Patriots, Giants, Chargers.

That Raiders/Steelers game looks very interesting, and I have no confidence in the Colts/Patriots game.

aye, i forgot the Bears game was today until noticing this topic was bumped.  i'd imagine the turnaround is even more harrowing to the players than it is to me. ;)

I wouldn't worry too much about the Bears. The fish lost both QBs and this is a short week.

Onto the picks!

Quote
Week 11 schedule:

Picking the other games on Thursdays suck balls, full stop.

Quote
Bears @ Dolphins (Thursday)

Bears - Tyler Thigpen is not the answer, and I suspect that'll make the Bears eat the fish alive.

Quote
Bills @ Bengals

Bengals - Only the Bungles can screw this up.

Quote
Lions @ Cowboys

Cowboys - Seeing how the Giants looked uncompetitive, this could be a closer game than it should be.

Quote
Redskins @ Titans

Titans - Redskins coming off a bye week+pwnage+MNF, the Titans will be able to regroup from that terrible loss.... though I doubt Moss would show up.

Quote
Cardinals @ Chiefs

Chiefs - The beatdown of the Chiefs kinda help them out here... the Cards are very much in flux.

Quote
Packers @ Vikings (division)

Packers - Arguably the very last important game of Favre's career.

Quote
Texans @ Jets

Jets - What the hell happened to the Texans? Oh wait.. they are the Texans.

Quote
Ravens @ Panthers

Ravens - It's a slow death for John Fox.

Quote
Browns @ Jaguars

Jags - I don't like this pick any more than picking Mangina to win.

Quote
Raiders @ Steelers

Steelers - Despite the bye week for the Raiders, I expect the Steelers to stop the Raiders heads from exploding...

Quote
Buccaneers @ 49'ers

49ers - This is a tough pick... a west coast trip usually helps the home team more...

Quote
Seahawks @ Saints

Saints - I get the feeling the Seahawks will get some beatdown.

Quote
Falons @ Rams

Falcons - Once Leno notices this spelling mistake, it's probably too late.

Quote
Colts @ Patriots

Pats - I'm only hoping here, but despite Peyton having to work at the bottom end of his receiver charts, I think he'll try to make it close.

Quote
Giants @ Eagles (division)

Eagles - I know the Eagles are coming off a short week because of MNF, this game can be close... but the question is whether the Giants will play a consistent game?

Quote
Broncos @ Chargers (division, Monday)

Chargers - The late-half surge has commenced for the Chargers... and unfortunately this might really come at Josh McDaniel's expense.

A lot of people (iow the hard-nosed analysts) seem to think that the Bears aren't for real because "they really haven't beaten anybody yet." You know what? The schedule is what it is, and you play who is in front of you. 7-3 is 7-3, no matter the conference and division.

Packers - Arguably the very last important game of Favre's career.
If the Packers win, yes. Vikes have to win out or they are done, emphasis on done. :tongue:

This Bears team resembles the one that went against the Colts in the SB. The difference is that you're replacing Grossman with Cutler. The eventual result is that the Bears will be a disappointment. It is very hard to believe in that offense, period.

Records going into SNF:
Leno: 11-3 (and still managed to pick Favre to win)
Gil: 8-6 (according to Leno's lame rules, it wouldn't count, although making the initial pick of the fish game is lol)
Me: 10-4

Major pick differences left include Leno picking the Giants(, and Gil picking the Broncos).

 :edit:
Notable games: Colts @ Pats game was AWESOME, although I felt a heart attack coming on (figuratively speaking) in that last Colts drive.
Vikings season ends on Favre being MIA, which shouldn't have shocked anyone (but it did apparently).
Bucs are a very good dark-horse team that most people don't know about.
Bungles are worst than anyone thought... I mean the Bills beat them.. and TO's press conference was epic.
Titans have issues on QB (let alone the team and Moss)... and manage to let McNabb win... for some reason.
Jets should've lost, but then again these are the epic fail Texans.
