NFL Selects 2018, Week 11: Rams Winner and Steelers Winners

Last week was tough. It was as if all games were kicks, and most of them were. However, some of these safe teams found themselves on the wrong side of the eruption. We unanimously had incorrect choices on FIVE games. Five. It's not unusual to see everyone upset this game, no matter what Sunday, but five o'clock is really something special.

But enough talk about last week. I am convinced that this week's choices will not make you feel bad.

Toilet bowl this week

We have another toilet bowl at the schedule this week. The Raiders are at the Cardinals, in a battle for the project position. The Cardinals get most of the choices from our panel, and that makes sense. Arizona actually seems to want to play sometimes, and Josh Rosen and Larry Fitzgerald finally seem to have found a connection. Fitz captured 14 of 22 targets for 152 yards and one touchdown in the last two games.

The Raiders have scored nine points in their last two games, in total. So, yes, the Cardinals look like the pick here. Again, we said the same thing about the Jets against the Bills last week.

Choice of chiefs and rams

Here is the game we really want to see. I know these are simple choices, but I must point out that the over / under is 62 points. I would feel pretty safe betting on this game.

The Chiefs have won 6-0 against the Rams over the years, but that includes all the ugly teams from the days of Rams Jeff Fisher and previous years.

This one is a home game now for the Rams. Well, technically, it was a home game for the Rams when it was to be held in Mexico City, but the pitch at Estadio Azteca was already hard enough to fail to compete with a league that left Dan Snyder liven up the matches. year after year in his Maryland mud hole.

Five of our experts and the computer choose the Rams to win this one. Two of them and the room take away the chiefs.

The Rams have certainly lost receiver Cooper Kupp, but they are still quite offensive with Brandin Cooks, Todd Gurley and Robert Woods. I would be more worried about the Chiefs' offense against L.A. Again, you could say exactly the same thing about the Kansas City defense here.

Best of the rest

There is only one choice for the Jaguars to beat the Steelers. This game could be one where most of us are wrong. The Jags might realize that beating the Steelers this week would not be in their interest.

We have a lot of people waiting for a rebound from the Ravens. Honestly, they could be better without Joe Flacco. The Bengals appealed to Hue Jackson to be the assistant to the regional director, so it's a kind of addition subtraction.

This Bears-Vikings game should be a humdinger. I think Minnesota will win that win, but it's a real win, especially as a home game for Chicago.

The rules

OK, let's go to the choices. Our guest this week is Joe McAtee, head of the site of the one and only Turf Show Times, home of the Los Angeles Rams at SB Nation.

The choices of the computer come to us via OddsShark. The play is a quarter of 2007 that turns every Tuesday morning to the home team. Panelists are allowed to make changes for up to two of their choices by Friday to take into account injuries, etc.
