Regular Season Week 12


Happy Thanksgiving!!!! This is the first time in years that I am not traveling for my favorite holiday. I figure I’ve been out of state for the past two weekends so it was time to stay put for at least one weekend. Last weekend I flew down to NC and surprised my Charlotte friends. It was an amazing weekend but another weekend that I didn’t watch a good deal of football (I would have loved to see the Panthers beat up on the Redskins at home though!) We’re heading into week 12 and we still have 2 undefeated teams, New England, and Carolina.  I went 7-7 on my picks, the Giants didn’t lose AND I won in both fantasy leagues, week 11 was decent.


Let’s recap week eleven.

Titans @ Jaguars 13-19
How funny the AFC South is. They are just about as bad as the NFC East. This was a must win for both teams but the Jags got it and it’s safe to say that the Titans season is over. Sorry Tennessee fans.


Raiders @ Lions 13-18
The Lions have won 2 in a row now (that’s not a typo) but I think it’s a lot too late for this season.  But don’t give up hope, because hope gets you through the tough times. Before this becomes a hallmark card I’ll just stop and go to the next game…

Colts @ Falcons 24-21
The old guys won the game for the Colts, no I’m not talking about Brett Favre, he’s still retired, I’m talking about Adam Vinatieri, the 42-year-old kicker and Matt Hasselbeck 40-year-old backup QB. These guys are clutch. As far as I’m concerned keep Luck on the sideline where he can’t turn the ball over. (I’ll say the same thing for Peyton until he’s healthy) As for the Falcons, I knew the beginning of their winning season was a fluke.

Rams @ Ravens 13-16
The Ravens FINALLY get a win but lost QB Joe Flacco and RB Justin Forsett for the rest of the season due to season ending injuries. Sorry Ravens fans, there is always next year.  

Buccaneers @ Eagles 45-17
BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for doing the Giants a solid! Really, thank you. Thank you.

Broncos @ Bears 17-15
I’m glad the Broncos got the win, and I agree that Peyton shouldn’t play if injured, but all of this talk that Peyton is done and his career is over is just nonsense. So just stop.  Peyton is not done and he’s not going to be like Brett Favre; he just needs to get healthy again.

Jets @ Texans 17-24
The Texans have won 2 in a row and the Jets are playing like the Jets of yesteryear. I’d like to say I’m surprised, but I’m not. I did get to watch the end of this game as I was sitting in the Newark airport, but it seamed like every time I looked up Fitzpatrick threw an interception and that was frustrating being that I had started him this week in one of my fantasy teams.

Redskins @ Panthers 16-44
Cam threw a career high 5 TDs against the Redskins and it was glorious getting off the plane and checking the score and seeing the rout happening back in Charlotte. Good job Carolina, the Giants thank you, you made their bye week even better.

Cowboys  @ Dolphins 24-14
Romo is back and the Cowboys won a game, and people are freaking out everywhere saying they are the best team in the NFC East...  as Chris Berman says “C’MON MAN!”

Chiefs @ Chargers 33-3
Well, the Chargers have lost six straight now. It’s safe to say that their season is over. Better luck next year. As for the Chiefs, they’ve won 4 straight and have a wild card chance of making the playoffs.   

Packers @ Vikings 30-13
Ditka took off the Packers vest and lookit! The Packers won! Coincidence? I think not. Go-Pack-Go. Way to bounce back!

49ers @ Seahawks 13-29
Even after putting Kaepernick on IR and starting Blaine Gabbert the 49ers still couldn’t get a win in Seattle. They even had help with Marshawn Lynch out for the Seahawks, but still couldn’t get it done. Not that I was shocked or anything.

Bengals @ Cardinals 31-34
I got home after a fun filled, sleep deprived weekend, and couldn’t even stay up for the pregame show for this game. Needless to say I didn’t watch this game but I was glad to have predicted the winner. Bengals drop 2 in a row. Rut-row.  


Bills @ Patriots 13-20
This game was SO entertaining to watch.  I must say, if I had to pick a Tom Brady face to watch it would be his face during this game. The man was pouty McPouterson for the majority of the game.  If only the Bills could have come out with the win. Oh well Rex, you at least got the win in the Meadowlands against the Jets. As for the Pats, their first loss is coming. Just wait for it. It’s going to be… Legendary.

WEEK 12

Thursday November 26th   

Eagles (4-6) @ Lions (3-7) [12:30pm FOX]
I know that it’s rare that the Lions win, especially on thanksgiving, but I’m picking them for the win and might even sport my Detroit Lions hat for added fun.

Panthers (10-0) @ Cowboys (3-7) [4:30pm CBS]
I shit you not, the Cowboys are favored to win this game (I wish this was a sick joke)… I’ll be rooting for and picking the Panthers to win this game. #keeppounding
I’ll do a wardrobe change and sport my Panthers t-shirt for this game.

Bears (4-6) @ Packers (7-3) [8:30pm NBC]
Keeping up with wardrobe changes maybe difficult, but I could find my Bears sweatshirt… nah, by that time I hope to be in a turkey/beer/hookah coma and just enjoy a good football game. I’m picking the Packers to win.


Sunday November 29th

Rams (4-6) @ Bengals (8-2) [1:00pm FOX]
I’m picking the Bengals I don’t think they’ll drop three in a row.

Raiders (4-6) @ Titans (2-8) [1pm CBS]
I’m picking the Raiders to win even though their starting QB looks about 17 years old.

NY Giants (5-5) @ Redskins (4-5)  [1pm FOX]
Dear Giants, you have two choices. You can win or you can WIN. These are your only choices. I’m picking the Giants to win.

Vikings (7-3) @ Falcons (6-4) [1pm FOX]
 I’m picking the Vikings to win.

Bills (5-5) @ Chiefs (5-5) [1pm CBS]
The Bills could win this game and should win this game. I’ll take the Bills for the win.

Saints (4-6) @ Texans (5-5) [1pm FOX]
I’m taking the Texans, who suddenly have decided they can play football.

Buccaneers (5-5) @ Colts (5-5) [1pm FOX]
I’m picking the old guys.  Winston is the youngest QB in the league and Hasselbeck is the oldest.

Dolphins (4-6) @ Jets (5-5) [1pm CBS]
 I’m taking the Jets.

Chargers (2-8) @ Jaguars (4-6) [1pm CBS]
I’m picking the Jags…

Cardinals (8-2) @ 49ers (3-7) [4:05pm FOX]
 I’m going with Arizona

Steelers (6-4) @ Seahawks (5-5) [4:25pm CBS]
I’m taking the Seahawks even though they probably won’t win.

Patriots (10-0)  @ Broncos (8-2)[8:30pm NBC]
 Even though Peyton is out and they are playing the Pats, and I always pick the Pats to win, I’m picking the Broncos… GET. IT DONE.

Monday, November 30th 

Ravens (3-7) @ Browns (2-8) [8:30pm ESPN]
Johnny Football has been benched after partying again during the bye week. I’m not gonna lie, if I was making as much money as Manziel, I could put the beer down for the season. SMH.  I don’ t think this kid is ever going to learn. I’m still picking the Browns to win, which is saying something. Sorry Ravens fans.




GO GMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
