NFL Picks Week 11

Getting ready for UFC 65 and as I have to make TNA picks tomorrow, I thought I'd stay in the picking mood and hit this week's NFL games.

A not so funny story. Last week I was clicking through the boxes on ESPN.com to make my picks and writing them down for the OCC. Well, I forgot to hit submit when I was done so got none right. I hit it this week though.

Last Week: 9/7
Overall: 85/59



Sunday: November 19, 2006 (early games)
Cincinnati 4/5 at New Orleans 6/3, winner: New Orleans
OCC: Cincinnati just keeps sliding backwards this season and the Saints aren't the kind of team you can count on reversing your momentum anymore.


Buffalo 3/6 at Houston 3/6, Winner: Buffalo
OCC: Buffalo is not Jacksonville, who accounts for 67% of Houston's victories this year.

New England 5/4 at Green Bay 4/5, winner: New England
OCC: A game featuring the best QB of this decade Vs. the best QB of the last decade.


Oakland 2/7 at Kansas City 5/4, winner: Kansas City
OCC: Trent Green and Aaron Brooks both return to start for their respective teams this week. Green will lead his team to a win but I bet its close as these games always seem to be.


Atlanta 5/4 at Baltimore 7/2, winner: Baltimore
OCC: The Ravens defense should have fun toying with Michael Vick this week.


Chicago 8/1 at New York Jets 5/4, winner: Chicago
OCC: The Bears are going to make it back-to-back wins against New York teams that play in New Jersey.


Pittsburgh 3/6 at Cleveland 3/6, winner: Pittsburgh
OCC: A battle for last place in the AFC North.


St. Louis 4/5 at Carolina 5/4, winner: Carolina
OCC: The Panthers have to make their move while they have a move left to make.


Tennessee 2/7 at Philadelphia 5/4, winner: Philadelphia
OCC: I expect the Eagles to dominate.


Washington 3/6 at Tampa Bay 2/7, winner: Tampa Bay
OCC: Washington has bitten me on the ass more than any other team this year I'm certain.


Minnesota 4/5 at Miami 3/6, winner: Miami
OCC: Miami starts winning but it may be too little too late.


Sunday: November 19, 2006 (Late Games)
Seattle 6/3 at San Francisco 4/5, winner: Seattle
OCC: Back to reality for the 49ers in this one.


Detroit 2/7 at Arizona 1/8, winner: Detroit
OCC: At least the NFL has confined these 2 teams to playing against each other this way one game is infected and not 2.

Indianapolis 9/0 at Dallas 5/4, winner: Indianapolis
OCC: Everyone is picking Dallas to defeat the unbeaten Colts which is my exact reason for picking the Colts.



Sunday: November 19, 2006 (Sunday Night Football)
San Diego 7/2 at Denver 7/2, winner: San Diego
OCC: This is the game of the week and it also goes head-to-head with TNA Genesis. I think the Chargers are a more well-rounded team but don't count out the home field advantage of Denver.



Monday: November 20, 2006 (Monday Night Football)
New York Giants 6/3 at Jacksonville 5/4, winner: New York Giants
OCC: I have no idea which Jacksonville team will show up.
