NFL Betting: Week 11 Roundup

Bears 16, Dolphins 0

As poorly as Tyler Thigpen played in the Thursday nighter, I blame Tony Sparano and the Dolphins’ game planning for the loss. Let’s see. You have a third string quarterback, two power running backs and the ability to run an effective Wildcat offense. What do you do? Why, you let Thigpen throw 29 times and run six times while giving Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown six combined carries. Good job.

Steelers 35, Raiders 3

Everybody off the Raiders bandwagon! OK, maybe we shouldn’t panic that much. The Raiders are still an improved team. But this loss should remind us that Oakland has a long way to go. The matchup was bad on paper for the Raiders all along. The Steelers are amazing against the run and the Raiders’ offense is built around running the ball.

The Raiders Aren't Who We Thought They Were!!!???

Jaguars 24, Browns 20

The Browns got their hearts broken again but it seems clear now that they aren’t an easy out for any opponent anymore. Reports of Maurice Jones-Drew’s demise have been greatly exaggerated. The Little Bowling Ball that Could totalled 220 yards on 26 touches.

Redskins 19, Titans 16 (OT)

The Titans’ season is slipping away in a hurry. With Vince Young possibly suffering a season-ending thumb injury, Jeff Fisher may intentionally play Rusty Smith at quarterback the rest of the way. Gulp.

Jets 30, Texans 27

Wow. The Jets pulled it out in the dying moments again. As poised as Mark Sanchez has looked, Santonio Holmes is emerging as the X-factor. We shouldn’t be too surprised; he showed in his Pittsburgh days that he’s ultra-clutch. In other news, the Texans are the new Bungles.

Ravens 37, Panthers 13

Christmas came early for Baltimore as Carolina trotted out a lovely gift by the name of fourth-string quarterback Brian St-Pierre. He served up two lovely pick-sixes.

Packers 31, Vikings 3

As much as Brett Favre’s career has played out like an uplifting, Oscar-winning tale, 2010 looks like a high-budget disaster to rival Battlefield Earth. As his counterpart, Aaron Rodgers, dominated the game with four touchdown passes and a 71.0 completion percentage, Favre completed 44.7 per cent of his passes for 208 yards, no touchdowns and a pick. He’s finished. But does Minnesota have the stones to sit No. 4 and give Tarvaris Jackson his shot?

** NOTE: ** This just in — Brad Childress OUT as the Minnesota Vikings Head Coach. He will be replaced by Lesley Frazier on an interim basis.

Chiefs 31, Cardinals 13

The Chiefs are back on the upswing – and it’s their offense, not their defense, that’s pulling the most weight of late. Dwayne Bowe had his second straight two-TD game and now has more touchdown catches (11) than games played (10) this season.

Cowboys 35, Lions 19

America’s Team looks like it’ll be America’s Spoiler down the stretch. Jon Kitna continues to play sort of competently and the ’Boys defense is showing signs of life. It picked off Shaun Hill once and sacked him three times yesterday.

Bills 49, Bengals 31

What the eff, Buffalo? Another 300-plus yard, four-touchdown game from Ryan Fitzpatrick? Chain Gailey really knows how to make something out of nothing at quarterback. He’s like Rumplestiltskin. Fitzpatrick now has 18 touchdown passes in eight starts. And Steve Johnson looks like he could be Buffalo’s best receiver since Eric Moulds.

Saints 34, Seahawks 19

The Hawks ran into a BUZZSAW down in the BIG Easy. The Saints look angry these days. Case(s) in point: Marques Colston absorbing two hits to make a touchdown catch and the Saints throwing on fourth-and-goal with a 15-point lead and seconds left on the clock. They have their taste for blood again. The Good news for the Seahawks is that every other team in the HORRIBLE NFC West lost as well, and they’re still in first. With a visit from the Chiefs to Qwest Field next Sunday.

Buccaneers 21, 49ers 0

This game told us a lot. By beating a hot team, Tampa erased any remaining doubts about its legitimacy as a vastly improved team. On the flipside, the 49ers’ anemic offensive effort reminded us that they still need to make major changes this offseason. Maybe Troy Smith isn’t the second coming after all.

Falcons 34, Rams 17

The Rams still looked like they belonged for most of this game but Sam Bradford’s shovel-pass interception was unfortunately imprinted on our brains by game’s end. He’s still a rookie. But a damn good one. The Rams ‘ future is bright.

Patriots 31, Colts 28

Maybe I’ll sound like a Peyton Manning apologist in saying this – but I really don’t blame him for the late-game interception that sealed this loss for Indianapolis. As has been the case all season, his receiver (in this case, Pierre Garcon. Who else?) didn’t seem to have any concept of where the ball was on that throw. Though Peyton also seemed to underthrow it. Regardless, Manning’s receivers have failed him far more often this season than in previous years.

Eagles 27, Giants 17

In a sense, this game was just as impressive for Mike Vick as last week’s virtuoso effort. Against the Giants in the Sunday nighter, he overcame some awful drops by his wideouts and managed the game well, proving that he can also win “ugly.” Eli Manning (three interceptions, one fumble lost) will want to forget this one in a hurry.
