Happy Thanksgiving everybody. We have an early version of picks this week as a result of vacation, and I hope it will will let you take a look at us and have a much-needed distraction when you’re searching your cellphone and desperately trying to find a reprieve from your loved ones.
I really feel like a damaged file at this level, however picks have been off the rails once more in Week 11. This season has been not possible to foretell in so some ways, and that gave us one of the crucial unbelievable tales in skilled picks this yr. Ricky O’Donnell hasn’t had the very best season general — he’s been in final place 3 times this yr, and suffered loads of anti-Bears tweets within the course of. However, in Week 11 he rose from the ashes like a phoenix to dominate with an influence beforehand unseen.
Ricky principally channelled his beloved Justin Fields, that’s my working idea, and put in a 12-2 picks file to not solely win the week, however flip in the very best single-week file of anybody this yr. It wasn’t remotely shut both, with second place being 8-6. That means he will get to author tweets for Mark Schofield and yours actually, as we tied for final — and I’ll add these in when Ricky is finished touring for the vacations and has settled on how he needs to humiliate us.
Here are the panel’s picks for Week 11. I hope you may have a beautiful, joyful, and joyous Thanksgiving with those you’re keen on — and we’ll see you subsequent week.
