Gamblers, gather 'round! This week in the NFL, we've got a plethora of matchups that promise to deliver some thrilling action. In my latest straight-up, against-the-spread, and survivor pool picks, I'm focusing on the teams that will emerge victorious, rather than just covering the spread.
First up, we've got the Jets taking on their division rivals, the Patriots (-13). Now, I know what you're thinking - why not go with the favored team? But for my money, I'll take the Jets (+13) as a hedge. It's always good to have an ATS pick correct in your quest to get back to 500 on the season.
Moving right along, we've got the Dolphins facing off against their AFC East rivals, the Commanders (-2.5). The Dolphins have looked decent recently, while the Commanders are in a tailspin. I'm taking the Dolphins here, and I think it's going to be an easy win.
Next up, we've got the Packers (-7) heading into the Big Apple to take on their NFC East rivals, the Giants. Now, I know some of you might be thinking that the Packers are due for a repeat performance after their recent loss, but I'm not buying it. The Giants have Jameis Winston at the helm, and let's just say he can make some magic happen on any given Sunday.
The Bills are looking to take down their AFC West rivals, the Buccaneers (+6), but I think Tampa Bay has this one in the bag. They've been playing close games all season, but I think they'll come out on top here.
The Steelers are facing off against the Bengals (-5.5) at home, and while I know Pittsburgh's defense can be stingy, I think Cincinnati's offense will find a way to get it done. The Steelers have been inconsistent this season, so I'm taking the Bengals here.
In other games, the Texans are looking to take down their AFC South rivals, the Titans (-6.5), but I think Houston has this one in the bag. They've been playing some great football lately, and I think they'll keep it up against Tennessee.
The Bears are facing off against their NFC North rivals, the Vikings (-3), but I'm having a tough time picking here. Both teams have talented rosters, so it's anyone's game. However, if I had to pick, I'd say the Lions take this one home.
In Monday night action, the Cowboys are taking on the Raiders (-3.5) in a matchup that promises to be a real barnburner. And for my money, I'll take the under. Both teams have struggled defensively lately, so I think we'll see a low-scoring affair here.
Finally, we've got a BYE week for the Colts and Saints, which means they're not getting picked up in this week's pool. But don't worry - there are plenty of other teams to choose from. Just remember, these picks are all about finding value and making informed decisions based on team performance and matchups.
So there you have it - my Week 11 NFL picks are out. Will I get it right? Only time will tell!
