Today's Sports 11/2/2014

Week 9 of the NFL with the top teams in the NFC and AFC playing each other, day 2 of the MLS Conference Semifinals and a Manchester derby in the Premier League.

English Premier League
Manchester United at Manchester City - 7:30 AM Central - NBCSN
Going in to the 10th game of the season City is sitting third in the table with 17 points while United is sitting either in the table with 13 points.

NFL
For all my NFL Week 9 Picks

New York Jets at Kansas City Chiefs - Noon Central - CBS
Coming in to this game the Jets are 1-7 while Kansas City has just moved above .500 on the season at 4-3. The Jets have turned the ball over an amazing 18 times already this season and are starting back-up quarterback Michael Vick in this game. I always worry about a team that is playing bad going on the road against a team that should beat them easily because they have nothing to lose. Kansas City has everything to lose in this game because a loss here would almost end their chances at getting back in to the playoff hunt. It is going to be a beautiful fall day in Kansas City and the city is still energized from the Royals playoff run so the fans will be in to this game. The Chiefs are just playing too good with Charles on offense and Houston on defense. The Chiefs will also break the streak this week and a wide receive will catch a touchdown pass.  Kansas City will put this game away early and cruise to a 31-13 victory
