Jeff Hoak took Week 11 of the Eastern Maine Sports NFL picks contest. Hoak (11-4) pulled within one game of Chris Lessner for the top overall spot. Cassidy Lessner (9-6) edged out Anthony DelMonaco by one game to take over third place by herself. Marc Calnan (8-7) remains over the .500 mark in fifth place. This week of course kicks off with the annual three game Thanksgiving Day gridiron contests. A big Divisional matchup in the AFC North on Sunday has Pittsburgh visiting Cincinnati, while the New England Patriots try to extend the win streak to six in a game that has possible top AFC implications when they host Tennessee. Other marquee games include Tom Brady and Tampa Bay visiting Indianapolis, and the LA Rams making a trip to Lambeau Field to face Aaron Rodgers and Green Bay. Our staff believe that the Eagles, Patriots, and Ravens breeze to wins this week. Here are the results from week 11, the season standings, and the game picks for Week 12-
Chris Lessner (10-5) 103-61-1
Jeff Hoak (11-4) 102-62-1
Cassidy Lessner (9-6) 98-66-1
Anthony DelMonaco (8-7) 97-67-1
Marc Calnan (8-7) 83-81-1
