The New England Patriots will look for redemption as they host the 10 point underdog New York Jets at 4:15 PM ET at Gillette Stadium in an AFC East showdown.
NFL Betting Odds:
New York Jets +10
New England Patriots -10
O/U 45
The Patriots have heard more about the controversial 4th and 2 call by Bill Belichick from last week’s loss 35-34 against the Colts than from about any of their Superbowl wins.
The Washington Redskins and Dallas Cowboys rivalry typically produces tight, close contests. That might not be the case this Sunday for a number of reasons.
The Redskins defense has been decent this year and the addition of high-priced defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth has had a ripple effect. Last year, the Redskins had just 24 sacks but as they head to Week 11, they already have 24 sacks on the year and are on pace for 45, which is their highest total since 1991.

Chiefs Get the Angry Steelers at Arrowhead
The Bengals-Steelers game didn’t exactly go as I’d thought it would, but I think a lot of that has to do with underestimating the Bengals rather than overestimating the Steelers. This is still a very complete football team, and even without Troy Polamalu, the fact remains that Big Ben has to come out firing to restore the football betting faith of his handicapping investors. That’s why a game on the road against KC might be a cure-all for whatever ails the Steelers right now.
The 10 point underdog Seattle Seahawks travel to Minneapolis to face the Vikings at 1:00 at Metrodome in NFC matchup.
NFL Football Betting Odds:
Seattle Seahawks +10
Minnesota Vikings -10
O/U 46
The Vikings are basically coming of two bye weeks as they easily beat the Detroit Lions 27-10 last weekend; meanwhile the Seahawks put up a hard fight against the Cardinals over three quarters but ended up losing 31-20.
The undefeated Indianapolis Colts visit the 2 point home underdog Baltimore Ravens at 1:00 PM ET at M&T Bank Stadium in a game of squads that achieved prime-time victories last week.
NFL Betting Odds:
Indianapolis Colts -2
Baltimore Ravens +2
0/U 44
The Colts remain undefeated following a big win over the Patriots 35-34 after out-scoring New England 21-10 in the last quarter; the Ravens beat the Browns 16-0 on Monday Night Football.
The San Francisco 49ers head north to take on the six point favorite Green Bay Packers at 1:00 PM ET at Lambeau Field in what is a battle of rejuvenated teams after recording much needed victories last week.
NFL Betting Odds
San Francisco 49ers +6
Green Bay Packers -6
O/U 42
Both are coming off big defensive performances as the Packers took care of the Cowboys last week with a 17-7 upset; the 49ers intercepted Bears QB Jay Cutler 5 times in the victory 10-6 over Chicago.
There’s one guy on the Saints roster that has given Tampa Bay fits throughout the years, and that’s Reggie Bush. No matter how poorly his season is going, Reggie always finds a way to score on the Bucs and steal games for the Saints. But guess who’s on the injury report after missing two practices this week? That’s right – Reggie Bush. Does his absence leave the Bucs a slight opening?

As last week’s NFL betting effort showed, we’ve hit a funny patch in the season – one in which we must expect the unexpected, as teams tend to get caught with their pants down looking past weak opponents. One such example is included in our Week 11 parlay.
Be honest. You didn’t see this coming, did you? Nobody figured the Giants to slide into the tank like this – four straight losses, after five straight wins to open the season, slip sliding to the point where today the East Rutherfords are just another team that will have to find a way to win some late-season games to remain relevant in the playoff picture.
“If you spend your life walking along the edge of a cliff,” said the teacher to the student, “one day you will surely fall over.”
So you have to wonder a bit about the Colts, who have pretty much locked up the AFC South but danced away from defeat for three straight weeks and now find themselves undefeated (9-0) heading into late November.
The Cincinnati Bengals signed running back Larry Johnson on Tuesday. But even with Cedric Benson hurt, Johnson is 3rd on the depth chart behind Bernard Scott and Brian Leonard so he likely isn’t going to get much work with his new team, but provides some veteran insurance if injuries hit at the running back spot.
Jay Cutler has hit rock bottom. There’s only one way to go after throwing five interceptions in a 10-6 loss to the San Francisco 49ers last Thursday – and that direction is up. At least that’s what the Chicago Bears are hoping when they host the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday Night Football.
Week 11 features some great games as the teams begin battling for a push to the playoffs. There are several division races and wins and losses become crucial. The Cowboys and Redskins will renew their NFC East rivalry this week as well as an AFC battle between the New York Jets and the New England Patriots. My pick for game of the week is the Indianapolis Colts at the Baltimore Ravens.
Lot’s of football this week with no byes.
If you like to bet numbers than last week you should have went with nine and six. Nine underdogs covered the spread with six teams; Jacksonville, Carolina, Kansas City, Green Bay, Cincinnati, and Washington winning outright. There were nine home teams that won straight up and nine home teams that won ATS. Nine games went over the total bet, while six games stayed under.
Here is a rundown of all this week’s games and the current lines as supplied by MySportsbook.com.
If you are in need of a HOT fantasy football player these Top Hot players for the week should help you out if they’re in your lineup. They may also be free agents on your waiver wire.
If you need to dump a lame duck on your team, these NOTS should be them. Throw em in the trash if you can afford to not have them on your bench. Fantasy Football always favors the prepared mind.
