    Hola Clutchfans NFL Gurus out there...

    I am in this weekly NFL "3 strikes" contest where we simply have to choose (1) winner in any NFL contest for that particular week. Currently I stand at 10-0 with about 50 others who still have zero strikes out of the 340+ folks who have entries. I think the winner will obviously be undefeated (zero strikes if you will) at maybe 20 weeks of victory's (WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW's is the goal :cool: ...)

    Just looking for the power of Clutchfans BBS to pull this through to victory cause weeks #11-20 will decide the cream of the crop obviously, and ten W's for the first half of the season is just blah unless you get the top prize:)

    Not that I can not look every single week for the biggest spreads according to the betting lines, but now that we are into the second half of the season things are becoming important to really strategize a little bit. Also ->You can not pick the same winner back to back (FYI: I picked Indy for last week, sorry Texans fans :eek: ) , until we get into the playoff rounds.

    What is your top pick for a W for NFL Week #11???

    This is a contest to pick winners and without the Priest, the Chiefs are searching for something that has nothing to do with these things known as the all important W's. Go Texans, hope you losers lose so we can get Bush in 06':)

    Right now I am leaning towards Denver, San Diego & New England as (3) better choices to consider.

    Denver (Home) over the clueless Jets, or Giants (Home) over the McNabbless Eagles.

    And Chiefs (Doesn't matter because we suck that bad) over the laughable TExpansians.

    Thanks everyone who provided feedback on your top Week #11 picks.

    I went with the Broncos this week against the Jets whom I know must be respected & I do not take this team lightly.

    Anyways, enough of that. Hopefully we will see some more of this :cool:

    ...on the QB Brooks Bollinger. YOU MUST BEWARE B-squared :eek:

    The Jets own preview/ reports on this game gives me the most hope:

    I think St Louis at home over Arizona would have been a pretty safe bet too.

    Damn, that's a tough week. Cincy would probably be my pick.

    I agree on Cincinnati. Baltimore's last win seemed like a fluke. (although I didnt watch it) Also, Cincy leads the league in interceptions and that will help when you're facing the definition of non-accuracy in Kyle Boller. Plus Cincy does a good job of putting pressure on the QB which will only make matters worse for Boller. Finally, Cincy's offense should be enough to overcome baltimore's defense, as good as it is.

    I was impressed with what I saw in their battle against the Colts & you know the Bengals are hungry to get a new win streak started up to stay on top the NFC North. (Since their main competition in the division, the Steelers just lost to the Ravens so both teams stayed tied at the top @ 7-3.)

    I'd go with Indy as long as Roethlisberger is out.

    Cincy is the pick for Week #12. Meant to say AFC North earlier. I don't pretend to be a expert like I know the rest of you Gurus are, but obviously Cincy is in the AFC :)
