WEEK 11 GAMES
1PMs
- Arizona @ Atlanta: not huge implications but with Atlanta appearing to be running away with it, I see it best they win to keep Arizona out of the WC race.
- Cleveland @ Dallas: pretty obvious
- Green Bay @ Detroit: we could find ourselves battling GB for a WC
- Philly @ Washington: kind of a wash but am picking Philly being we just beat them
- Tampa Bay @ Carolina: TB is ahead of us for a WC slot
4PMs
- Jets @ Rams: not big implication but better to keep Panthers down and out
- Saints @ Oakland: Saints are currently ahead of us in the WC race

Agree with everything except wanted Detroit over GB. I want GB to win. There are two many NFC teams at 4-5 right now and with a Detroit loss couple with a Cowboy win we can separate ourselves from that mess. With a Detroit win we are fighting with not only them but Green Bay. Green Bay is either going to win their division or get the wild card anyway so getting Detroit out of the way will be better for us.
