This NFL season has been about as unpredictable as one as I can remember. Some weeks we’ve nailed, others weeks not so much. Either way, staying true to your process is the best bet for long-term success. With that in mind here are my picks for Confidence Pool, Survivor and Against the Spread and all of your Week 11 Office Pool Picks.
Here are my picks for this week ahead in the various polls:
CONFIDENCE POOL
14 Chiefs at NYG
13 Jaguars at CLE
12 Saints vs. WAS
11 Steelers vs. TEN
10 Vikings vs. LAR
09 Eagles at DAL
08 Seahawks vs. ATL
07 Patriots at OAK
06 Broncos vs. CIN
05 Chargers vs. BUF
04 Packers vs. BAL
03 Texans vs. ARI
02 Lions at CHI
01 Bucs at MIA
SURVIVOR PICK
Each week I’ll offer up my “playing it safe” and my “out on the limb” pick for your elimination pool:
Playing it safe – Chiefs
I do my best to stay away from taking road teams in Survivor, but this late in the season you sometimes have to do things you’re not as comfortable with. The Giants are to me the worst team in the league right now and one that appears to have quit on their coach. Those are always situations I look to exploit. Coming off a bye, I am loading up on Kansas City this week.
Out on a limb – Jaguars
As stated above I shy away from road teams when possible, so it’s always scary for me to take one. The Jaguars should handle the Browns, but I’ve got a feeling the Browns are going to win a game or two still down the stretch. I’m going Jacksonville if I need to though and crossing my fingers.
AGAINST THE SPREAD (26-22-2 on season)
Pick of the Week
Seahawks -3
Other Plays to Consider
Chiefs -10
