Week 11 Review (2-1) OVERALL: 21-10-2

Buffalo Bills @ Los Angeles Chargers (-4)

Los Angeles Chargers 54 Buffalo Bills 24

This game was laughable from the jump. The fact that the Bills thought it was smart to go with Nate Peterman against this monster pass rush is mindboggling. Peterman threw not one, not two, not three, not four, but five interceptions in the first half alone. He had six total completions.

After the game, head coach Sean McDermott claimed he did not regret his decision to start Peterman, which is a wild statement. McDermott should have been fired at halftime for essentially ruining the Bills chances of making the playoffs. Luckily, McDermott had enough brain cells left and named Tyrod Taylor the starter for this week’s contest against the Chiefs.

After an 0-4 start, the Chargers are on a roll. Not only did they slaughter the Bills, but they also manhandled the Cowboys on Thanksgiving. Philip Rivers gobbled up the Cowboys defense, and Jason Garrett probably should have grabbed Tony Romo from the booth and thrown him in behind center.

Philadelphia Eagles (-3.5) @ Dallas Cowboys

Philadelphia Eagles 37 Dallas Cowboys 9

Like stated before, the Cowboys are a total disaster. Without Sean Lee and Ezekiel Elliott, this team has no chance. Since Zeke was suspended three weeks ago, Dallas is 0-3, and has been outscored 92-22.

The Eagles just keep on rolling and look like the best team in the NFC. It would be hard to say they are better than New England, because if the Super Bowl was tomorrow, the Patriots would most likely be favored, mainly because of that quarterback they have.

Still, Philly is now first in the league in scoring, third in total yards and fourth in first downs. Their defense has been phenomenal, allowing the fewest rushing yards in the league, and causing the third most turnovers. Carson Wentz looks like the favorite for MVP, but there is still plenty of football left to play.

Atlanta Falcons @ Seattle Seahawks (-3)

Atlanta Falcons 34 Seattle Seahawks 31

There is usually no need to blame a coach for a loss, but Pete Carroll, come on man! That fake field goal attempt was an epic disaster. The Seahawks defense sure missed Richard Sherman and Earl Thomas, as their poor play on key downs ended Seattle’s 11-game win streak on Monday night.

Atlanta converted 64 percent of their third down attempts, including eight of their first 10. Per usual, Russell Wilson played his heart out, with three total touchdowns and 86 yards on the ground. However, a costly fumble led to an Adrian Clayborn scoop and score, which gave the Falcons a 21-7 lead. With both teams sitting at 6-4, it will be interesting to see if both of these teams earn spots in the postseason.

Week 12 Picks

Seattle Seahawks (-5.5) @ San Francisco 49ers

PICK: SEAHAWKS TO COVER

Although the Seahawks let us down a week ago, they are still a good football team. Sitting at 6-4, a loss against the 49ers would be inexcusable. Since 2012, Seattle is 16-6 in November, while the 49ers are 1-7 in their last eight November games. After picking up their first win of the season, the Niners are sticking with C.J. Beathard, which is a positive for Seattle. In his four games, Beathard has a completion percentage of 54.3 and has thrown five interceptions.

Seattle comes into this one with the 10th best scoring offense, while San Francisco allows the third most points per game. The 49ers defense is allowing close to 380 yards per game, which is 27th in the league, and not a good sign going up against Seattle’s offense, who is among the top-10 in terms of yards per contest.

Even though they are depleted from injuries, Seattle still held reigning MVP Matt Ryan to under 200 yards passing. In his one game against a team with a winning record, Beathard threw for only 167 yards and completed 47.2 percent of his passes with a pair of interceptions.

Seattle’s defense comes into this one ranking top-10 in both passing yards and rushing yards allowed per game. They are fourth in opposing completion percentage, and are the sixth best team in terms of opposing red zone drives ending in a touchdown.

The 49ers score the least amount of touchdowns per game, and after this L to Seattle, look for Jimmy G to hop in.

Chicago Bears @ Philadelphia Eagles (-13)

PICK: EAGLES TO COVER

The Eagles have been playing elite all year, especially at home. They have yet to lose at Lincoln Financial Field and have outscored their opponents by 22 points in their last four home games. Chicago has only covered once this season when playing on the road.

All the numbers point to the Eagles dominating this one. They are the highest scoring team, going up against the 27th ranked offense. The Eagles are also second in the league in opposing third down percentage, and are impossible to run on. The Bears rely heavily on the run and will be in big trouble if Trubisky is forced to throw the ball.

Tennessee Titans (-3.5) @ Indianapolis Colts

PICK: TITANS TO COVER

The Titans go into the matchup following a brutal loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, 40-17. The offense was totally outmatched, and Tennessee’s lethal backfield was held to just 52 yards rushing. The good news is, the Colts let up 111.3 rushing yards per game. When the Titans rush for at least 100 yards, they are a perfect 4-0.

Jacoby Brissett will start, despite having a possible concussion. Brissett has led the Colts offense to 27th in yards per game, and dead last in percentage of red zone opportunities ending in a touchdown. When these teams met in Week Six, the Titans had 473 yards of total offense, and won 36-22.
