2011-12 Picks - NFL - Week 12

Football + Food + Family + Friends is pretty much exactly how I like my Thanksgiving.

Three potentially fantastic games on Thursday and some meaningful games on Sunday and Monday night. 

The playoffs are fast approaching and teams like the Bears, Giants, Broncos and Chargers are jostling for playoff positions. Who's going to take control of their playoff destiny?



Game of the Week - Thursday, November 24
SF @ BAL

Harbaugh versus Harbaugh. Frank Gore versus Ray Rice. Patrick Willis versus Ray Lewis. Flacco versus Alex Smith? As it turns out, the most important match-up in this Turkey day game is going to be how two semi-unproven QB's handle two very stellar defenses. I think the winner of that match-up wins the game. I'm going with Flacco and the Ravens.

Thu, Nov 24
GB @ DET | Green Bay - I would've picked the Lions if it were week 3.
MIA @ DAL | Dallas - Pressure from Jerry Jones or not--Romo was already planning to come up big.

Sun, Nov 27
MIN @ ATL | Atlanta - No AP. Falcons roll.
HOU @ JAC | Houston - Ugh. Matt Leinart. Just ugh...Maybe he'll prove everyone wrong.
TB @ TEN | Tampa Bay - Chris Johnson makes me laugh.
ARI @ STL | St. Louis - I wish Larry Fitzgerald was on a team that they showed on National TV.
CLE @ CIN | Cincinatti - The Bengals probably shouldn't make the playoffs...But they'll win this game.
BUF @ NYJ | New York - J-E-T-S. But only because it's the Bills.
CAR @ IND | Carolina - I started off thinking, "The Colts have to win sometime, right"?--Turns out, they don't.
WAS @ SEA | Seattle - Is there anything even worth talking about here?
CHI @ OAK | Chicago - No Cutler? No Problem. I'm curious as to what Hanie hashtags will arise on Twitter.
NE @ PHI | New England - The Brady Bunch is picking up steam. Right on time.
DEN @ SD | Denver - What will Tebow do next?
PIT @ KC | Pittsburgh - It doesn't matter if Kyle Orton plays. Steelers win.

Mon, Nov 28
NYG @ NO | New Orleans - Breesus strikes again.

Thanks for reading guys.
