Good Wednesday to you all, /r/NFL! Turkey Day is coming up and many pundits are already scoping out their playoff picture for teams currently winning in their division. The byes are another four teams this week, so two less games to watch. I had a good Week 10, going 10-4 and bringing me to 101-49 on the season. How did everyone else do? We have a whopping seven division games this week (half the matchups) with five inter-conference and two cross-conference games lined up. Let’s get to it!


Winner Loser Comments
Bengals over Ravens Starting off the week with a good one. Baltimore has two home losses this season, and this short week makes this a true toss-up game between division rivals. Jackson is 7-1 against the Bengals as a starter. Burrow could reverse that trend and give us an “upset”. As with most good division games, this will be a toss-up.
Steelers over Browns So I picked the Browns to win this one and was typing this up literally as news was breaking about Watson’s season-ending surgery. Clearly this changes things. Could rookie QB Thompson-Robinson light it up? Maybe, but probably not.
Lions over Bears The Bears could get Fields back for this matchup, which may give them a better shot in this division game. Chicago is 1-4 on the road this season, averaging over two turnovers per game. The Bears also allow 298.2 YPG on the road. This could be another huge game for Goff. Detroit is 5-1 as a single-digit favorite.
Chargers over Packers Chargers should be able to get the running game against a Packers’ defense that has allowed 200-plus rushing yards three times this season. Green Bay is 1-4 in games decided by three points or less. Love has thrown eight of 10 INTs in the second half, so Green Bay may be in trouble if they can’t get a big lead early in the game.
Dolphins over Raiders Seeing Pierce coach this beleaguered Raiders team to back-to-back wins is a great feel-good story we can all appreciate. But reality is about to hit them with a Dolphins team hosting this matchup. The Raiders average 33 rushing attempts and 149 rushing YPG the last two weeks, but the Dolphins have a decent run defense. Miami pulls away with a two-score lead at home.
Commanders over Giants This is going to be one nasty game. The Giants are a mess, but they did beat Washington in Week 7. Howell has taken a league-high 47 sacks, and that has disrupted the Commanders’ offense. DeVito has taken 11 sacks in two blowout losses. If Howell can stay upright, he should be able to get a win here.
Cowboys over Panthers The Cowboys erupted for 640 total yards against the Giants, and the Panthers had a few extra days after the loss to Chicago. The Panthers average 14.5 PPG at home, which will not be enough against Dallas. I can’t see Young outdueling Dak this week.
Jaguars over Titans Levis completed 52.5% of his passes over two weeks, and the Titans averaged 11 PPG in those losses. That won’t do on the road against the Jags, who are coming off a sucker punch against San Fran. Jacksonville has a chance to shake it off and get itself right with a solid division win this week.
Texans over Cardinals Should be a good matchup of Murray versus Stroud, who is 3-1 at home with a 113.9 passer rating. The Texans might not cover the spread, but Houston keeps the good times rolling.
49ers over Buccaneers San Fran looked different after their bye, with the defense totaling five sacks and 10 QB hits. The pass-rushing combo of Bosa and Young is pretty good. Tampa ranks 31st in the league in rushing offense (78.1). That is going to cost them in this one, even if Baker makes it interesting.
Bills over Jets This one may turn out way more wild than previous thought. After the stunner in Week 1, Buffalo is looking for payback. Allen is 6-4 with nine TDs and 10 INTs in 10 starts against the Jets. New York is 4-2 ATS as an underdog because that defense travels well. Bills in a close one.
Seahawks over Rams Seattle quietly won three of their last four games, and they are 2-2 on the road. Stafford is still dealing with a UCL injury and if he cannot go it might be Wentz against Seattle. Geno is coming off his best game of the season against Washington and I think he’ll continue the trend.
Vikings over Broncos My gut is saying upset, but I don’t think Denver is there yet. Dobbs does not turn the ball over and Denver still has the worst defense in the league, struggling most against the run. Chandler and Hockenson may be too much for the Broncos to contain, but then again we didn’t think Denver could beat K.C. and Buffalo either.
Chiefs over Eagles Recap of last year’s Super Bowl and possibly a preview of this year’s. Tough pick for this one. Hurts has struggled with INTs on the road, where he has a passer rating of 87.8. Mahomes keeps the Chiefs rolling at home with Kelce. This one will come down to the wire again.

Byes: Falcons, Colts, Patriots, Saints


Those are my predictions, let’s hear yours. Keep it civil and fun. Best of luck!

    Shit I’m late but.

    Predicted the ravens would win. Got that.

    Browns 20>steelers 9. I think another dominant performance from the browns defense.

    Dolphins 33>raiders 27

    I think the phins barely etch out a win with ramsey making 1 or 2 key stops.

    Lions 33>bears 10

    I think the lions dominate a bears team and by the fourth quarter or late in the third we are seeing backups.

    Jags 23>titans 13

    I think the jags rebound after a poor weak. Titans defense contains them but the offense struggles.

    Chargers 34>packers 10 Chargers dominate a poor packers team.

    Texans 30>cardinals 23 Texans are on a hot streak but the tough game cards make it semi close.

    Cowboys 40>panthers 6

    I hope bryce young isn’t dead by the end.

    Commies 20>giants 9 A beaten down giants team with nothing to play for loses to a commies team fighting for a playoff spot.

    49ers 33>bucs 9

    Bucs get clobbered by a healthy niners team. Bucs can’t run at all and young+bosa keeps getting pressure.

    Jets 23>bills 17 Another close game between poor injured teams. Jets defense and run game gets them a win.

    Seahawks 30>rams 13

    Another struggle from rams offense. Seahawks should’ve figured out the rams “donald save us please” defense by now.

    Broncos 23>vikings 20

    A close battle between surprisingly competitive teams.

    Eagles 30>chiefs 20

    I think the eagles get revenge for the sb. Kelce play action may cause some trouble but eagles run defense should give chiefs trouble.

    11-3 last week, bringing me to 87-63 on the season so far.
    On to week 11.
    Predicted winners in BOLD.
    Here.
    We.
    GO!

    Thursday
    CIN @ BAL - Thursday night games are usually a shit-show, however considering the teams playing this week, we have the potential for a great game. Having said that, I’m sure I just jinxed it. Sorry in advance.

    Sunday
    DAL @ CAR - I mean… c’mon. I’d be more than happy to be proven wrong, Panthers.

    PIT @ CLE - Seems like these are always tough matchups. However, a lot seems to have changed with the Browns since week two.

    CHI @ DET - Bears will put up a fight, but the Lions are just having one of those years, man.

    LAC @ GB - Both of these teams kinda look like a hot mess right now, so the Pack at home, I guess?

    AZ @ HOU - So, I guess Kyler Murray is back? Like most, I’m sure, I did not see the Cards winning against the Falcons last week. Houston seems to be on a tear after just handing a beating down to the Bengals in week 10.

    TEN @ JAX - Alright, Titans. I’m giving you one more chance…

    LV @ MIA - Dolphins are coming off their bye, and the Raiders are pretty banged up.

    NYG @ WA - The last time I was this confident in a Commanders win, they got their asses handed to them by the Bears. I don’t think it’ll happen twice, but it is in the back of my mind.

    TB @ SF - Alright, Bucs. You have one job. I picked the Niners to win this, but I’m rootin’ for you.

    NYJ @ BUF - If this were the Sunday Night game, I might pick differently, because nationally televised games seem to be when the weird shit goes down.

    SEA @ LAR - The Rams are always a tough opponent for the Seahawks. We could have a 17-0 season and still lose to the Rams twice. It’s weird, but McVay will find a way. I am confident though that this time will be different. Because I’m a delusional homer.

    MIN @ DEN - I’m all aboard for the Dobbs Hype Train. Choo choo, mutherfuckers.

    Monday
    PHI @ KC - Both teams comin’ off their byes, so I’m sure both will forget how to football, and what should be a good game will be a surprising disaster.

    BYES: ATL, IND, NE & NO

    That Vikings broncos game smells like a trap.

    It seems every year some backup qb comes in and plays a couple really good games. Everyone gets up in arms about “qb controversies” and then in the third or fourth game, they prove why they’re a backup qb.

    The question is, will that happen this week or next week for Dobbs?
