NFL Underdog Pick: Week 11
November 17th 2007

Tennessee Titans (+2.5) at Denver Broncos

Even though I had a rough week 10 overall, my underdog pick of the week can not be denied.  The Atlanta Falcons came through on the road in Carolina.  This is the week of trial and error for most teams which makes for some interesting plays. You've got John Beck starting for the first time at Philadelphia and Brodie Croyle matched up against the Colts. Meanwhile, the Raiders have decided to switch back to Culpepper and deny Russell any opportunity and the Falcons may switch back to Leftwich even after Joey Harrington won the last 2 games for them.  

I am a huge fan of watching Reggie Bush against the Houston Texans this week. He is carrying a chip on his shoulder and will show the Texans what they missed out on when they passed him up in the draft.

However, the best underdog play of the week goes to the Titans.  Vince Young shines in the spotlight and if Haynesworth is able to play the Titans will win easily.  The Titans to me play very similar football to the Jaguars and the Jaguars pounded the Broncos with a relentless running attack in week 3. The Broncos are also 1-10 against the spread at home in their last 11 games and are 2-7 against the spread this year overall.
