Well, that was brutal.
Week 10’s slate of upsets handed For The Win’s expert pickers our worst week of prognostications yet. Only Robert Zeglinski was able to tread water with a non-losing record thanks to surprising victories from the Minnesota Vikings, Indianapolis Colts and Washington Commanders.
Week 11 brings the promise of more discombobulation. Can Jeff Saturday ride what’s sure to be a hero’s welcome back home in Indiana to a win over the Philadelphia Eagles as a full touchdown underdog? Will the Detroit Lions trip up another mobile quarterback by dashing Daniel Jones’ hopes of an 8-2 start?
This weekend’s games aren’t all stat line mismatches, however. The New York Jets and New England Patriots meet to see who will stay afloat in the ulta-competitive AFC East. The Dallas Cowboys and Minnesota Vikings will joust in a game that could decide the NFC’s top seed. The Los Angeles Chargers will try to avoid fading into oblivion when they host the Kansas City Chiefs.

The asterisk next to the Rams is to denote this pick is dependent on Matthew Stafford making the start in Week 11. And even then, I don’t feel great about it.
