Let’s start out by talking about what went right last week.

…

…

Now that we’ve gotten through that, let’s talk about the rest.

Holy cow, this football season is bizarre. Green Bay starts 6-0 then loses three straight, including at home to a team that hadn’t won in Lambeau Field since 1991?

Peyton Manning throws four interceptions and basically gives his team no chance to win on the day he breaks the passing yardage record?

The NFL irritates people with color blindness by putting teams in all green and all red uniforms in a nationally-televised Thursday night game? Actually, I kind of got a kick out of the furor the NFL faced on that one – well deserved. The best description I heard of those uniforms was that it looked like Christmas barfed up a football game.

But I digress.

Our week 10 picks were ugly. Very ugly. Only one of us – Tony – got more than half the games correct. John Vomhof Jr. got half of them right. The rest of us tied at five. Putrid.

Here are the standings:

  Week 10 Season
Tony 8-6 96-50
Vomhof 7-7 82-64
Rich 5-9 92-54
Maggio 5-9 89-57
Andy 5-9 88-58

Well, we’ll put this one behind us. Here are our picks for week 11.

Game of the Week: Cincinnati at Arizona – You could almost call this one a tie with the Green Bay/Minnesota game, but Bengals/Cards win by a nose. Why? Cincinnati is coming off its first loss of the season, a dog against Houston on Monday night. They need to rebound to stay ahead in the race for the second bye. Arizona, on the other hand, is following up a huge win that buried Seattle in the division and conference standings. Can the Cardinals stay sharp or will they have a letdown in another big game? There’s a lot of intrigue in this game.

Game of the Weak: St. Louis at Baltimore – Every time the Rams seem on the verge of making a play, they go drop a growler. Last week it was at home against Chicago. They enter this game 4-5 and have benched Nick Foles. Baltimore qualifies as one of the league’s most disappointing teams. The 2-7 Ravens seem to do a lot right until it matters. Can they close out this team and go about salvaging some dignity? Really, who much cares?
