NFL Week 12 Picks: 3 Biggest Blowouts That Will Demoralize Losers

At this point in the NFL season, we have a pretty good idea of the bad teams in the league.

You know, those guys who slump their shoulders, grow wrinkles and throw things around in the locker room.

It's also at this point when things start boiling over in locker rooms and sidelines throughout the league and players can't hide their emotions any longer.

In Week 12, we'll see plenty of hair-pulling and hear plenty of agonized screams.

Here are the three biggest blowouts of the week.

3. Indianapolis Colts vs. Carolina Panthers

It's not very often that I say the Panthers will blow anyone out (in fact, I don't know if I've ever said it), but they are facing the Colts in Week 12, a 0-10 team that has completely fallen apart on both sides of the ball with Peyton Manning absent.

The Panthers are averaging a middle-of-the-road 22.5 points this season, but it's their defense that has caused them to lose eight games. The defense is giving up 28.6 points per game this season (second-worst in the NFL).

But fortunately for the Panthers, the Colts don't know how to score a lot of points. Through 10 games, the Colts are averaging just 13.1 points per game, third-fewest in the NFL.

They are also giving up 30 points per game, worst in the league.

2. Minnesota Vikings at Atlanta Falcons

When you have only two difference-makers, defensive end Jared Allen and running back Adrian Peterson, and you lose Peterson for the week due to injury, what do you have?

You have a worse football team than the 2-8 product thus far.

As for the Falcons, they've won four of their last five games since starting 2-3, and their only loss in that stretch was by three points to the New Orleans Saints.

In the Georgia Dome, it's going to be rocking, and it could get ugly.

1. Kansas City Chiefs vs. Pittsburgh Steelers

The Chiefs may have one of the loudest home crowds in the NFL, but that hasn't stopped them from going 2-3 at home this season.

The Chiefs have had problems from Week 1, and the offense, defense and coaching is all to blame.

You throw in the fact that starting quarterback Matt Cassel just went down to injury and backup Tyler Palko threw three interceptions taking over for Cassel, and you have a disaster awaiting against the formidable Steelers defense.
