NFL Week 10 Picks: Last Call Score Preditions for Every Game on Schedule

If this season has taught us anything it's that no prediction is safe in the 2011 NFL season. So many crazy upsets have happened and so many teams have played poorly or surprised and played well that it has been almost impossible to nail down accurate projections.

Still, I've got to try. Here are my picks for Week 10's outstanding slate of games.

New Orleans Saints (6-3) at Atlanta Falcons (5-3)

The Falcons have improved their play but Drew Brees and the NFL's second-ranked passing attack will be too much for Atlanta to keep up with.

New Orleans 35, Atlanta 27

Pittsburgh Steelers (6-3) at Cincinnati Bengals (6-2)

Rookie quarterback Andy Dalton has been a very good game manager for the Bengals, but against the Steelers' vaunted defense, Cincinnati will need him to make plays. He's not ready to do that yet.

Pittsburgh 27, Cincinnati 21

St. Louis Rams (1-7) at Cleveland Browns (3-5)

In what should be a horrible game I give the Browns an edge simply because they are the home team. Who really knows what to expect in this one?

Cleveland 17, St. Louis 10

Buffalo Bills (5-3) at Dallas Cowboys (4-4)

The Bills have come back down to Earth after a fast start, but the Cowboys are far too inconsistent to be relied upon. I think Ryan Fitzpatrick guides Buffalo to a road win.

Buffalo 28, Dallas 24

Jacksonville Jaguars (2-6) at Indianapolis Colts (0-9)

This might be the worst quarterback matchup in NFL history as Blaine Gabbert (62.0 quarterback rating) and Curtis Painter (70.5 rating) go head-to-head. Jacksonville gets the edge because of Maurice Jones-Drew. 

Jacksonville 21, Indianapolis 10

Denver Broncos (3-5) at Kansas City Chiefs (4-4)

Tim Tebow will run around like a madman like he always does, but I expect Tamba Hali to smack him a few times as well. Kansas City is more consistent than Denver. That gets the Chiefs the win.

Kansas City 24, Denver 14

Washington Redskins (3-5) at Miami Dolphins (1-7)

Behold the great awakening of Reggie Bush. The former No. 2 overall pick is averaging 4.9 yards per carry this year and has 262 yards from scrimmage in Miami's last two games. When he is clicking the Dolphins don't look horrible. I think his roll continues this Sunday.

Miami 28, Washington 17

Arizona Cardinals (2-6) at Philadelphia Eagles (3-5)

The Eagles should have beaten the Bears on Monday night, but instead lost 30-24. Against the Cardinals they simply can't lose, right? Arizona is terrible and the Eagles simply have too much talent to stay awful forever.

Philadelphia 34, Arizona 14

Houston Texans (6-3) at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4-4)

With All-Pro receiver Andre Johnson not yet back in the lineup, expect the Texans' offense to continue clicking behind running back Arian Foster. Houston will get a solid road win.

Houston 28, Tampa Bay 10

Tennessee Titans (4-4) at Carolina Panthers (2-6)

Cam Newton will rally his team for a late win over a Titans team that is falling rapidly.

Carolina 24, Tennessee 20

Baltimore Ravens (6-2) at Seattle Seahawks (2-6)

There is no way the Seahawks will be able to move the ball on the Ravens, right? 

Baltimore 34, Seattle 7

Detroit Lions (6-2) at Chicago Bears (5-3)

The Bears received a gift of a win by the Eagles on Monday night in Week 9. The Lions won't be in such a giving mood. Coming off a bye the Lions are poised to roll.

Detroit 37, Chicago 31

New York Giants (6-2) at San Francisco 49ers (7-1)

In what will turn out to be a bruising slug-fest, the 49ers' toughness wins out at home.

San Francisco 17, New York (Giants) 14

New England Patriots (5-3) at New York Jets (5-3)

The Patriots have faltered after a very fast start, but there is nothing Tom Brady and company love more than shutting Rex Ryan up. They'll get the best of the Jets' bombastic coach on Sunday night.

New England 35, New York (Jets) 21

Minnesota Vikings (2-6) at Green Bay Packers (8-0)

Aaron Rodgers is on one of the most incredible rolls for a quarterback in NFL history. There's no reason to think he'll slow down any time soon. The Packers will roll at home on Monday Night Football.

Green Bay 42, Minnesota 14
