After registering two great weeks in weeks seven and eight, I have had two abysmal weeks in weeks 9 and 10. My combined record for weeks seven and eight was 23-5. My combined record for weeks 9 and 10 was 14-13. Needless to say, I could use another really good week. With the NFL getting even tougher as the playoff picture gets clearer, things aren’t going to get easier. I’m still searching for a perfect week, but I’m not sure it’s possible with the unpredictability and volatility of the NFL. Here are my picks for week 11:
