Unless you can get excited about the Rams and Seahawks renewing their NFC West rivalry in St. Louis, you would be wise to stick with Titans vs. Falcons and Chargers vs. Bears before flipping over to NBC tonight for Eagles vs. Giants.
But don't wait until after the games are over to find out who wins. Check out these three contenders set to protect their home turf on Sunday:
Atlanta Falcons Over Tennessee Titans
The Falcons lost a heart-breaker last week against the Saints. Atlanta made an idiotic, indefensible decision in overtime and it very well could cost them a spot in the 2011 postseason.
In Week 11 they will bounce back with an easy win over the Titans, but their early-season shortcomings will come back to bite them later this year. Still, they are legitimate NFC contenders at 5-4.
Chicago Bears Over San Diego Chargers
The Bears have won four-straight while the Chargers have lost four-straight. Momentum is real and if it leads us to believe anything about Sunday's outcome at Soldier Field, it's that Chicago will win without a problem.
They destroyed the Lions one week ago and their defense is only improving, it's scary. Philip Rivers and the Bolts' offense has fallen off while the San Diego D has been hit or miss. Chicago will protect their home in Week 11 and win their fifth-straight.
New York Giants Over Philadelphia Eagles
Much like the Chargers vs. Bears game late this afternoon, the Eagles vs. Giants matchup features two teams trending in opposite directions. Although Big Blue had a slip up on the road last week in San Francisco, they were in position to tie with seconds remaining.
Philly has lost to subpar competition and lost most of their football games because of inexcusable turnovers and defensive mistakes. Missed tackles and inconsistency will do in Philly on the road tonight. The Giants keep their one-game lead on Dallas in the NFC East while protecting their house in Week 11.
