NFL: 2008 Week 11 Predictions


Week 10 Record: 12-2
Overall Record: 83-61


Houston Texans (3-6) @ Indianapolis Colts (5-4)


Pick: Colts

Both these teams are shaky week in and week out.

Outcome: Colts 33 Texans 27 - Colts no huddle offense too much for Texans

New York Jets (6-3) @ New England Patriots (6-3)


Pick: Jets

The Pats are not first place material anymore. Get over it Bostonian elitists.

Outcome: Jets 34 Patriots 31 - Jets overtime win tilts balance in AFC East

Denver Broncos (5-4) @ Atlanta Falcons (6-3)


Pick: Falcons

Matt Ryan and Michael Turner will rip up the Broncos defense.

Outcome: Broncos 24 Falcons 20 - Another close victory puts Broncos on solid ground

Oakland Raiders (2-7) @ Miami Dolphins (5-4)


Pick: Miami

Shots Heard feels sorry for anybody that has to watch the Raiders as part of their designated regional coverage. Note to the networks: Please take Southern California off the list.

Outcome: Dolphins 17 Raiders 15 - Dolphins keep pace in AFC East; stay game out of first


Baltimore Ravens (6-3) @ New York Giants (8-1)


Pick: Giants

One of the worst match-ups of potential playoff teams that we have seen this year.

Outcome: Giants 30 Ravens 10 - Ravens not so tough after all

Detroit Lions (0-9) @ Carolina Panthers (8-2)

Pick: Panthers

We are already looking forward to watching the winless Lions and potentially undefeated Titans playing on Thanksgiving.

Outcome: Panthers 31 Lions 22 - Lions jump out to 10 point lead and then lose again.

Philadelphia Eagles (5-4) @ Cincinnati Bengals (1-8)


Pick: Eagles

Shots Heard would take an Eagle over a Bengal (Cat) in real life too. Who knew that a Bengal was a cat? We looked it up.

Outcome: Eagles 13 Bengals 13 - For McNabb ignorance is not bliss.


Chicago Bears (4-5) @ Green Bay Packers (5-4)

Pick: Packers

Nobody without a decent quarterback is winning at Lambeau.

Outcome: Packers 37 Bears 3 - Packers dominate Bears in big division match-up.

New Orleans Saints (4-5) @ Kansas City Chiefs (1-8)

Pick: Chiefs

This is actually the logical pick. The Chiefs have lost their last three games to potenital playoffs teams (Jets, Bucs, Chargers) by a total of eight points. Meanwhile, the Saints come in winless on the road.

Outcome: Saints 30 Chiefs 20 - Pierre Thomas steps up for Saints.

Minnesota Vikings (5-4) @ Tampa Bay Bucs (6-3)


Pick: Bucs

Vikings fans could really use this to keep the pressure on Aaron Rogers and the Packers. But the Vikings are a bad road team and the Bucs are undefeated at home.

Outcome: Bucs 19 Vikings 13 - Garcia outplays Peterson.

St Louis Rams (2-7) @ San Francisco 49ers (2-7)

Pick: Rams

Shots Heard predicts that the winner of this game will keep their interim coach beyond this season.

49ers 35 Rams 16 - Niners snap six game losing streak with help from lowly Rams.

Arizona Cardinals (6-3) @ Seattle Seahawks (2-7)


Pick: Cardinals

Kurt Warner for MVP? We'll see.

Outcome: Cardinals 26 Seahawks 20 - Cardinals continue to beat up division foes
.

Tennessee Titans (9-0) @ Jacksonville Jaguars (4-5)


Pick: Titans

The Jags have been downgraded to 'sell.'

Outcome: Titans 24 Jags 14 - Ten games, ten wins for Titans.


San Diego Chargers (4-5) @ Pittsburgh Steelers (6-3)


Pick: Steelers

Another week on the razor's edge for the Chargers.

Outcome: Steelers 11 Chargers 10 - First 11-10 score in NFL history.

Dallas Cowboys (5-4) @ Washington Redskins (6-3)


Pick: Redskins

Anybody else tired of hearing about how the Cowboys cannot win a game? Please Redskins, stick a fork in them so that we can move on.

Outcome: Cowboys 14 Redskins 10 - Cowboys win lackluster affair.

Cleveland Browns (3-6) @ Buffalo Bills (5-4)


Pick: Bills

The Bills will may beat another weak team and pretend to be a playoff eligible team for another week.

Outcome: Browns 29 Bills 27 - Bills no longer beating up the bad teams either.
