NPC’s Week 11 NFL Picks
By Kim Myers
Think you can pick winners better than the NPC staff?
Here we are at Week 11 in the NFL Regular Season. It’s going by fast isn’t it? Here at Nice Pick Cowher, we are not only a bunch of nerds who follow the Pittsburgh Steelers tirelessly, but we are also a bunch of nerds who follow the NFL tirelessly. Therefore we put our money (or maybe just pride) where our mouths are and make picks on every NFL game each week. We don’t mess around with point spreads or anything like that. Just straight up picks.
This Sunday the Steelers are at home again against the Detroit Lions. If they can contain Reggie Bush and Megatron it shall certainly put a smile back on the faces of Steeler Nation. The schedule is chalked full of divisional game goodness with the Colts and Titans both trying to rebound from their embarrassing losses against each other in the Thursday night game. The Jets are in Buffalo fresh off of their bye week, the Browns will face the Bengals, Atlanta will face the Bucs coming off of their first win, and the Redskins are in Philly, where Philly has been awful so far this season. The biggest divisional matchup of all this week, probably the biggest game on the schedule is the Chiefs at the Broncos to see who the real top dog of the AFC West is.
Last week Jim took the victory of the week and has now tied me for the overall lead. This means war, of course. Our reader participant got a respectable 7 winners last week and still remains unchallenged by the rest of our readers. You guys have a million things to say about what’s wrong with the defense but can’t put up some picks huh? I see how it is.
Feel free to make picks of your own in the comments section, or take the opportunity to heckle and criticize our opinions if that’s your deal. Check back next week to see how I regain the overall lead and reinstate my football picks supremacy over the rest of the staff. Make your picks or root for your favorite NPC staffer! Here we go Steelers!
