The Shenoa Report
November 16, 2011
Regular Season Week 11
Week 10 was a hard week to watch. Of the 16 games that were played, only 6 of the home teams came out on top. I honestly don’t feel like being funny or witty, it was a rough football weekend for me. So I’ll just get right to the recaps.
Oakland @ San Diego 24-17
I’d like to say that I’m surprised that Oakland won and the Chargers blew it but I’m not. The Chargers have lost 4 straight now. They say that the Chargers come alive in November. Maybe they forgot to change their calendars and they are still looking at October?
Jacksonville @ Indianapolis 17-3
So I wore my #18 Manning jersey out Sunday to watch the games and one of the waiters said to me “Good for you still being a Colts fan” I replied “I’m a glutton for punishment” I was able to watch the whole game and wish I hadn’t. I really have nothing else to say about the Colts, though I did catch the Stanford game Saturday night and Andrew Luck didn’t impress me much… Now I know I just watched the last quarter of that game but it didn’t make me very excited to be way in the lead for the “suck for luck” contest.
New Orleans @ Atlanta 26-23 OT
This was the only game this week that went into overtime. And the reason why the Saints won… John Kasay is clutch.
Pittsburgh @ Cincinnati 24-17
The Ginger’s picks are what put the Steelers on top in the end. Boo
St. Louis @ Cleveland 13-12
Seriously Browns?! This was another home game for the Browns where they couldn’t score a touchdown. One of my Cleveland friend’s fb status’ said “Weird weather in Cleveland... ‘This just reported: After reports of the tornado watch the community is encouraged to take cover at the Cleveland Browns stadium where there is no possibility of a touchdown.’"
TRUE STORY
Buffalo @ Dallas 7-44
I’m pretty sure I’m done “billieving” The loss wouldn’t have been so bad but it was Dallas.. Come-on man! Tough loss boys. And what’s the deal with giving a football to a Cowboy’s cheerleader. Not classy man…. She didn’t even know what to do with it.
Denver @ Kansas City 17-10
Say what you want about Tim Tebow, but the Broncos record is now 3-1 with him under center. On the other hand KC is spiraling downward again.
Washington @ Miami 9-20
Most of Washington’s players are injured and I’m thinking that the Colts might win won before the Redskins win another. Just sayin.
Arizona @ Philadelphia 21-17
Vick ended the game with no touchdowns, two interceptions, and some broken ribs. It wasn’t a good game for the Eagles and I can’t say I’m at all sad about it. I was actually quite happy with Arizona and their win on Sunday. This was one of the few games that I actually enjoyed the outcome. Maybe the Eagles will be “the dream team” next season… they’ll have all of post season through next preseason to dream about such things.
Houston @ Tampa Bay 37-9
This is probably one of the only games that I wasn’t super surprised with the outcome. Houston is still rolling and has the AFC South all locked up.
Tennessee @ Carolina 30-3
This game surprised me. I thought this would be an easy win but the Titans brought their A-game to Charlotte. They were able to sack Cam 5 times and completely shut down the passing game. This was actually the first time I thought Cam played like a rookie. Poor Panthers.
Baltimore @ Seattle 17-22
This game was almost as shocking as when Seattle beat New Orleans in the playoffs last year. No one saw that coming and I’m pretty sure no one saw Seattle beating the Ravens this game. But it happened. On any given day…
New York Giants @ San Francisco 20-27
This was a good, close game but a tough loss for the GMEN and all of their fans. Not gonna lie, expletives were flying out of my mouth. Manning’s interceptions killed us along with some bad play calls at the end. This loss stung but our hopes are not crushed. We’ll bounce back … the Giants always do.
Detroit @ Chicago 13-37
This was another shocker for me. Detroit looked like… well the Detroit of the not so distant past, and Chicago played like DA BEARS. Cutler had no TD’s or interceptions but Stafford had four interceptions and only one touchdown. If I was a punter and I saw Devin Hester on the other end of the field I would probably kick it out of bounds.
New England @ New York Jets 37-16
This doesn’t surprise me. Nothing to report. Just a bad weekend for New York. So I think I’ll just re-live the Pats last game against the Giants.
Minnesota @ Green Bay 7-45
Well Rodgers threw four TDs and Ponder had one interception. There was no need to watch the game. Green Bay seems to be unstoppable.
I only picked 6 Wins out of 16 games in week 10… like I said it was a tough week.
WEEK 11
New York Jets (5-4) @ Denver (4-5) [Thursday 8:20pm NFL]
I’m going to pick the Jets for the win but I wouldn’t be surprised if Denver pulled it out. With Tebow under center anything is possible.
Cincinnati (6-3) @ Baltimore (6-3) [Sunday 1pm CBS]
Against better judgment I’m going to have to go with Baltimore at home.
Jacksonville (3-6) @ Cleveland (3-6) [Sunday 1pm CBS]
I’d like to pick the Browns at home but Jacksonville looked pretty good last week against Indi… then again they were playing Indi… on the other hand its been awhile since the Browns have even scored a touchdown at home. Can I pick a tie? Nah I’m going to pick the Jags.
Carolina (2-7) @ Detroit (6-3) [Sunday 1pm FOX]
Hope both teams bounce back but I’m picking the Lions for the win.
Tampa Bay (4-5) @ Green Bay (9-0) [Sunday 1pm FOX]
I pick Green Bay.
Buffalo (5-4) @ Miami (2-7) [Sunday 1pm CBS]
I’d like to see Buffalo win this one. I may be picking the Bills for the win one last time.
Oakland (5-4) @ Minnesota (2-7) [Sunday 1pm CBS]
I’m taking the Raiders. They’ve had a long week to rest and the Vikings are coming off a short week.
Dallas (5-4) @ Washington (3-6) [Sunday 1pm FOX]
I would LOVE to see the Redskins win this. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT and I hope they do. But my picks sucked last week so I’m going to pick Dallas but hope Washington pulls off a huge win for the Giants!
Arizona (3-6) @ San Francisco (8-1) [Sunday 4:05pm FOX]
I like the 49ers in this game
Seattle (3-6) @ St. Louis (2-7) [Sunday 4:05pm FOX]
It’s hard to say, both teams are really bad but both are coming off of wins this past week. I’m going to have to go with Seattle for the win.
Tennessee (5-4) @ Atlanta (5-4) [Sunday 4:15pm CBS]
I’m taking Atlanta at home
San Diego (4-5) @ Chicago (6-3) [Sunday 4:15pm CBS]
I’m going with Da Bears
Philadelphia (3-6) @ New York Giants (6-3) [Sunday 8:20pm NBC]
I’ve got to take the Giants, though I must tell you that when I heard that some of my boys were at a nightclub and there were gunshots my heart stopped for a moment…
Don’t worry they weren’t as dumb as Burress and weren’t involved.
Kansas City (4-5) @ New England (6-3) [MNF 8:30pm ESPN]
I’m picking the Pats for the win and no I don’t like it.
The Saints, Steelers, Texans, and Colts have their bye this week. Thank God the Colts can’t lose this week!
GO GMEN!!!!!
thanks for the edit Mom!
