NFL Week 11 Picks: Detroit Lions vs. Carolina Panthers

The Carolina Panthers showed everyone on Sunday that their defense can hold the fort when the offense is not clicking. QB Jake Delhomme had his worst game as a pro with four picks and was 7-of-27 in pass attempts. Thankfully the defense limited the Raiders to just two field goals in a 17-6 win.

This week Delhomme and the Panthers offense will try to get back on track against the winless Detroit Lions. Carolina enters this one as heavy 14-point favorites.

For Lions backers, there is very little to get excited about this season. At least local product Drew Stanton got to play Sunday against Jacksonville. The little-used QB handed off on his first play, then threw a TD pass on his second play.

It will be interesting to see who the Lions put out to face a Carolina D that is fourth in the league against the pass.
