As a side-note for those of you in Fantasy Leagues, remember that this is the last week for making trades in most leagues. Good luck to all… Here now are this week’s Five Best Bets.
*Home team in CAPS
BROWNS -3 over the Texans- For Cleveland and their fans, this week is one of historic proportions as it is the first time a Browns team has been in first place in the AFC North this late in the season in 20 years! With quarterback Ryan Mallett making his first NFL start for the Texans, we’re surprised the spread is as small as it is especially with a banged up Arian Foster and Jadeveon Clowney.
Falcons (pick) over the PANTHERS- Normally the Falcons aren’t a good bet when on the road but besides beating the Buccaneers by 10 last Sunday, Atlanta is just a better team than Carolina who is coming off of a 24 point loss to the Eagles on Monday night. Although the Panthers do not play in a dome the trip will be a short one for the Falcons, the weather should not be a factor and the Panthers have a short week.
SAINTS -7 over the Bengals- What in the world has happened to Andy Dalton? If you saw his inept performance last Thursday night you saw him not only missing his receivers but missing them badly. Saints lost a tough one to the 49ers last week and should return to their typical winning ways at home this week against a Bengals team that appears to be on life-support right now.

PACKERS -6 over the Eagles- This game has all the makings of a good old fashion shootout in Green Bay with both clubs having high potent offenses. Aaron Rodgers is 26-1 in his last 27 at home as a starter when he plays more than a half. Throw out Philadelphia’s 27-13 win at Lambeau last year as Rodgers was injured. The “Sanchise” will face a team quite different from the lame Panthers that he saw in Week 10.
Raiders +10 over the CHARGERS- We’re picking the Raiders here for two reasons; they kept it close and covered the spread when they played the Patriots and the Seahawks and this is a 5-4 Chargers team that got crushed by the Dolphins 37-0 in their last game in Week 9.
Last week: 3-2

My five best bets concerning week eleven in the NFL
1) Don’t watch any of the games
2) Spend time with friends
3) Make love to your partner ___ actually , this should be top of the list ! LOL ,LOL , LOL !!!
4) Have a six pack handy with a deck of cards and some friends to play poker
5) Ask your partner if they’re ready for a do-over concerning #3
That’s my list and I’m sticking with it , because far too many of the games this season , have been absolute crap .
Burning Jay Cutler jerseys in Chicago ? Finally , their fans are coming to their senses which is more than can be said for Bears’ GM Phil Emery , who inked Cutler to a seven-year $127 million deal .

Seeing as how your #2 and #4 are essentially redundant, I would choose #3-4 & 5. As for your #1, there are bad games every week and season in the NFL and in all other sports as well. I’d rather have football games to watch than tennis match from Austrailia or a golf tournament from Pebble Beach…

It’s been a crazy season in the NFL and the results have been largely inconsequential . What has surprised me somewhat has been the level of coaching and how poor it has been .
I’ll take results of a boxing match or MMA over a PGA Tour result or men’s tennis tennis at present .
You can never downplay lovemaking at all even when allegedly angry or depressed .
Best potential contest of week eleven has to be the game between the Indianapolis Colts and New England Patriots . Two great quarterbacks in Tom Brady and Andrew Luck looking to add to their already great legacies as players in this league .

Yes that should be a great game..I’m giving the edge to N.E. but only because they have one thing that the Colts don’t… Bill Belichick!

A season defining game for both teams in this particular contest .
Jay Cutlers says he’s not worried about Bears’ fans burning his jersey . I guess he wouldn’t be , because it beats them actually getting hold of him and actually burning his dumb @ss . Cutler’s stats this season have been horrendous .
