A big Week 11 by Jeff Hoak, and an off week by Marc Calnan has tightened things at the top of the leaderboard in the Eastern Maine Sports NFL pick’em contest. Hoak went 11-3 with his predictions, while Chris Lessner went 9-5. Calnan was 5-9. Calnan is still in first place by just one game over Hoak and three over Lessner. Anthony DelMonaco and Cassidy Lessner also had good weeks going 10-4 and 9-5 respectively. This week is a time for tradition as three games as always will be played on Thanksgiving Day. On tap for Turkey Day is Buffalo at Detroit, Dallas hosting the New York Giants, and the New England Patriots visit the Minnesota Vikings in the final contest.
