Most Amazing
The Oregon Ducks upset Stanford on Saturday night in a big way. The Ducks scored first, went for a two-point conversion, and never let the lead go after that. The Ducks won 53-30 mainly thanks to LeMichael James, the Ducks running back ran for 146 yards and had 3 TDs, he also caught one pass for 10 yards.

The Baltimore Ravens had the lead in the AFC north and the entire conference after a season sweep of the Steelers. To keep the lead, all they had to do was beat a team with only two wins on the whole season. The Ravens went away from their normal game plan of establishing the run, and it cost them the game. Ray Rice only carried the ball five times while Joe Flacco threw 52 passes. The Ravens could not come back after being down 10-0 in the first and lost 22-17.

What 2 Watch 4
San Diego Chargers at Chicago Bears
4:15 p.m. Solider Field Chicago, Ill
This is a game both teams need to win if they want to stay alive in their divisions. The AFC West is a mess right not and every win counts in that division. The NFC North should be easily won by Green Bay so Detroit and Chicago will be fighting until the end for playoff spots or rankings.

My NFL Picks Week 11
New York Jets at Denver
My Pick:
This a game the Jets must win. On the other side of the ball Tim Tebow has brought a new perspective to quarterbacks around the league. A guy who is 3-1 as a starter this season has found unconventional ways to win. If the Jets want to stay alive in the AFC East they must win this game because they do not have any easy schedule ahead of them. Denver's defense has not been good but it all depends on the play of Sanchez
Buffalo at Miami
My Pick:
Cincinnati at Baltimore
My Pick:
Baltimore suffered an embarrassing lost to the 206 Seahawks last week to knock them out of first place in the AFC North and the whole conference. Andy Dalton has played great for the Bengals, looks for Dalton to have a good game against the Ravens and find a way to win.
Jacksonville at Cleveland
My Pick:
Dallas at Washington
My Pick:
Carolina at Detroit
My Pick:
Tampa Bay at Green Bay
My Pick:
Oakland at Minnesota
My Pick:
Seattle at St. Louis
My Pick:
Arizona at San Francisco
My Pick:
Tennessee at Atlanta
My Pick:
San Diego at Chicago
My Pick:
The Bears embarrassed the Lions last week in a land slide victory. San Diego, a team normally close to perfect in November and December since 2007 has lost both November games they have played. Look for Chicago's defense to play well against the Chargers and improve to 7-3. This bears team who is in the same division as the undefeated Packers needs to win every game it can to stay alive in the playoffs.
Philadelphia at New York Giants
My Pick:
Kansas City at New England

Each week, Just Another Sports Show picks a great moment and an equally awful one, plus a key matchup that is not to be missed.
Most Amazing
The Giants got the upper hand on the Patriots on a last second scoring drive capped off with a 1-yard touchdown pass to Jake Ballard. The Patriots scored with 1:36 left in the fourth quarter but left just enough time for the Giants to come back. The Giants beat New England to hand them their first home loss in 20 games and also sent them to their first two game loosing streak since 2002.
C'Mon Man!
The Pittsburgh Steelers had a chance to take a commanding lead in the AFC and take control of the AFC North by beating the Ravens at home last Sunday night. A delay of game penalty took the Steelers out of 47 yard field goal range and forced them to punt. The punt landed on the 8 yard line and all the Steelers had to do was stop a 92 yard drive by Baltimore. They could not do that and Baltimore scored a touchdown with a few seconds left to give Baltimore the lead 23-20 and a season sweep of the Steelers.

7 Oregon at 4 Stanford
Stanford Stadium, Stanford, CA 8PM on ABC
This is the first true test for Stanford and these two teams play for first place in the PAC-12 and could lead to a National Championship appearance.

My NFL Picks Week 10
Oakland at San Diego
My Pick: San Diego
The AFC West is a complete mess right now. No team is constant right now and there has been quarterback changes on two out of the four teams. Right now three teams are tied at first place. Both of these teams and Kansas City are at 4-4. None of these teams are constant right now, Kansas City has the advantage because of head-to-head win percentage. San Diego is on a 3-game loosing streak and needs to rebound to keep in the division. Oakland is still looking for Carson Palmer to be the trade they were looking for. In his first two games as a Raider he has 3 touchdowns and 6 interceptions. Look for Philip Rivers to out play Palmer in San Diego.
New Orleans at Atlanta
My Pick: New Orleans
Buffalo at Dallas
My Pick: Buffalo
Pittsburgh at Cincinnati
My Pick: Pittsburgh
St. Louis at Cleveland
My Pick: Cleveland
Denver at Kansas City
My Pick: Denver
Tennessee at Carolina
My Pick: Carolina
Jacksonville at Indianapolis
My Pick Indianapolis
Look for Indianapolis to get there first win of there season. Last week the other winless team in the league, Miami, got their first win. Jacksonville's only two wins came from Tennessee in week 1 and they snuck away with a win on Monday Night Football against Baltimore. Indianapolis lost three games by less than 5 points and play at home against a bad Jacksonville team.
Washington at Miami

New England has not lost two games since December of 2002. Two weeks ago they lost to the Steelers and last week they lost a close one to the Giants. The last time they lost 3 in a row was early in the 2002 season. Look for New England to rebound against the Jets. Both teams and Buffalo are at 5-3 and New England can pull away in the division with a win on Sunday Night Football.
Minnesota at Green Bay

The Baltimore Ravens travel to Heinz Field to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday Night Football for the lead in the division and the AFC
The Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens rivalry is arguably the best in the NFL right now. Year in and year out we see these teams fighting for the division lead and playoff spots. This is a match up where we might see more 15-yard penalties than touchdowns. Last year in Baltimore Haloti Ngata broke Ben Roethlisberger’s nose during a pass attempt. These teams do not play nice.
This year’s second meeting of these teams is going to be a good one. Baltimore embarrassed Pittsburgh in the season opener 35-7. Pittsburgh played sloppy in this game and Baltimore took advantage of it scoring early and often. Pittsburgh’s 7 turnovers set them up to an NFL’s worst -10 turnover ratio. They also sacked Ben four times who had 3 interceptions and 2 fumbles in the loss. Since then the Steeler’s have gone 6-1 and look to avenge this lost after a huge win against New England last week. Pittsburgh Finally fixed there “Patriot-problem.” Pittsburgh was 1-6 against New England before this game. Pittsburgh’s offense scored early and often to jump to a 10-point lead and never looked back. The Steelers fought off a late New England serge to take the top spot in the AFC.Baltimore who started strong this season fell to Tennessee and Jacksonville; the Ravens did not play well on either side of the ball in the Monday Night game two weeks ago. They came back after being down 24-3 to the 2-6 Arizona Cardinals last week. The Steelers look to win its fifth straight game against Baltimore. Ben is 7-1 all time against the Ravens at Heinz Field and they have won six of the last nine meetings including playoffs
The top spot in the AFC and the lead of the AFC North are up for grabs on Sunday Night Football on NBC.
