NFL Picks - Week 11 Thursday

New Orleans @ Carolina
Last Sunday the Saints were robbed of a chance at overtime when the refs failed to overturn Denver's PAT return even though the runner looked to be out of bounds. New Orleans fans were justifiably outraged, but I know one man who was tickled pink: Arena Football League commissioner Scott Butera. This would never happen in the AFL, because there is no out of bounds. This is your time to strike Scott Butera! The world needs to know about your league's superior sidelines. Butera will probably just sit on his hands though like he has throughout his sham of a tenure as leader of our nation's second most beloved football league. I know what you're thinking, "Not another Butera tangent!" I know, I know, I'm like a broken record here. Speaking of broken records, Drew Brees has done just that multiple times in his career. This week though he's on the road against a desperate team that's been playing better defense of late, so I'll tentatively take Carolina. Man I sound as cowardly as Scott Butera. Sorry! 

Panthers 27-23
