NFL Picks - Week 12

Could have been called upset week in the NFL, as Denver, Washington, Cleveland, and New Orleans went down in somewhat shocking ways. Philly got torched by Green Bay, and Seattle was also defeated by KC. New England continued to dominate the AFC by taking out the Colts, and Miami beat Buffalo in a game with big wildcard implications. Here are the updated standings in our pick-em contest:

Andrew – 797 Points (96-50)

Greg – 740 Points (94-52)

This week features a few big games, such as Detroit and New England, Arizona and Seattle, and Miami vs. Denver. But there are also some underlying storylines: Lovie Smith returns to Chicago. Cincy at Houston, Cleveland at Atlanta, and Baltimore at New Orleans are big games in the AFC North race (all road games too). And Dallas returns from their bye to take on the Giants, a division rival.

Below are our picks and confidence points for all the games (less this week due to byes). Play along in the comment section if you want:
