NFL 2011 Week 4 Round-Up

Week 4 saw a major shake-up in the race, as The Wife's 7-9 picks dropped her to third place.


Lions at Cowboys
-------------------
The Wife: Cowboys
Me: Lions
Steve: Lions
WINNER: Lions (looking forward to seeing them play next Monday night)

Panthers at Bears
-----------------
The Wife: Panthers
Me: Panthers
Steve: Bears
WINNER: Bears (Cam Newton makes games fun, even when his team loses)

Bills at Bengals
-----------------
The Wife: Bills
Me: Bills
Steve: Bills
WINNER: Bengals ("though this could be one of those games where there's a huge let-down from the big win a week before" I said . . . but didn't listen to myself)

Titans at Browns
---------------
The Wife: Browns
Me: Titans
Steve: Titans
WINNER: Titans (I know the Browns are/should be better than last year, but they just seem so moribund on offense; a good play or drive here or there, but few actual points on the board)

Vikings at Chiefs
---------------
The Wife: Chiefs
Me: Chiefs
Steve: Vikings
WINNER: Chiefs

Redskins at Rams
---------------
The Wife: Rams
Me: Rams
Steve: Redskins
WINNER: Redskins (disappointing season for Rams fans excited with how they looked last year; I think a much tougher schedule has done them in)

Saints at Jaguars
----------------
The Wife: Saints
Me: Saints
Steve: Saints
WINNER: Saints (quietly positioning themselves for another playoff run)

Steelers at Texans
--------------
The Wife: Steelers
Me: Texans
Steve: Texans
WINNER: Texans (makes me think the Ravens are the team to beat in the AFC North)

49ers at Eagles
--------------
The Wife: Eagles
Me: Eagles
Steve: Eagles
WINNER: 49ers

Giants at Cardinals
--------------
The Wife: Cardinals
Me: Giants

The Wife: Falcons
Me: Falcons
Steve: Falcons

Patriots at Raiders
------------------
The Wife: Patriots
Me: Raiders
Steve: Patriots
WINNER: Patriots (I've gotta stop picking my "upset special")

Broncos at Packers
------------------
The Wife: Packers
Me: Packers
Steve: Packers
WINNER: Packers

Jets at Ravens

----------------
The Wife: Bucs
Me: Bucs
Steve: Colts
WINNER:
Bucs
