<\/p>\nWeek 11 brought us more great football, full of must-win games, the last international game of the season, and more unfortunate injuries. Here is this week\u2019s wrap-up, and here is to Week 12!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
San Francisco 49ers<\/a><\/strong> – Brock Purdy returns and throws for three touchdowns in a win against the Cardinals. The Niner defense forced three turnovers to help them move to 7-4 and keep pressure on the Rams and Seahawks in the division race.<\/p>\n Los Angeles Rams<\/a><\/strong> – The defense picks off Sam Darnold four times, and the Rams eek by the Seahawks 21-19 to take the lead in the division.<\/p>\n Seattle Seahawks<\/a><\/strong> – Seattle falls just short of a comeback bid against the Rams. Jason Myers misses a 61-yard field goal to give the Rams the victory in a close game and fall one game back of the division lead.<\/p>\n Arizona Cardinals<\/a><\/strong> – Jacoby Brissett sets an NFL record for completions with 47, but all for naught as they get blown out by San Francisco 41-22 and fall to 3-7.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Denver Broncos<\/a><\/strong> – Bo Nix gets the Broncos in Wil Lutz\u2019s field goal range, and Lutz puts it through to defeat the Chiefs at the end of regulation 22-19. Denver is in the driver\u2019s seat in the division at 9-2 and winners of eight straight games.<\/p>\n Kansas City Chiefs<\/a><\/strong> – It could be time to panic a bit for Kansas City. The Chiefs drop a key division game to the Broncos at the buzzer on the road and fall to 5-5.<\/p>\n Los Angeles Chargers<\/a><\/strong> – The Chargers need a bye week, and they will get one next week to get healthy. However, this week was a demolition at the hands of the Jaguars, leaving the door open for Kansas City or Denver to gain ground on their position in the division.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Atlanta Falcons<\/a><\/strong> – Michael Penix Jr. leaves the game, and Kirk Cousins was unable to carry them to a victory. The defense did Cousins and the offense no favors by giving up 448 passing yards to Bryce Young. Atlanta moves to 3-7.<\/p>\n Carolina Panthers<\/a><\/strong> – The Panthers are legitimately in the playoff hunt AND the division crown race after defeating the Falcons in overtime 30-27. Bryce Young brushes off an in-game injury and throws for nearly 450 yards and three touchdowns, and Carolina is just one game back of Tampa Bay.<\/p>\n Tampa Bay Buccaneers<\/a><\/strong> – Sean Tucker\u2019s three-touchdown day was spoiled by Josh Allen\u2019s six touchdowns. The Bucs fall 44-32, and their division lead narrows as Carolina is slowly creeping up.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Tennessee Titans<\/a><\/strong> – The Titans gave Houston all they could handle today, but they came up a bit short to fall to 1-9.<\/p>\n Houston Texans<\/a><\/strong> – Davis Mills fills in for C.J. Stroud once again and leads the Texans to a narrow 16-13 victory against the Titans. Houston scored all 16 of their points in the second half to avoid the upset and stay in the playoff hunt.<\/p>\n Jacksonville Jaguars<\/a><\/strong> – The Jaguars absolutely demolished the Chargers 35-6, holding them to just 135 total yards. Jacksonville stays in the playoff hunt at 6-4 and a potential division title, all without Travis Hunter and Brian Thomas Jr.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n New York Giants<\/a><\/strong> – Jameis Winston and interim HC Mike Kafka cannot quite get it done against the Packers, losing by a score of 27-20. The Giants are now 2-9 with not much to play for the rest of the season.<\/p>\n Philadelphia Eagles<\/a><\/strong> – The Eagles grind out a win at home against the Lions 16-9. Philadelphia\u2019s defense played stout, shutting down the Lions\u2019 offense as the Eagles moved to 9-2.<\/p>\n Washington Commanders<\/a><\/strong> – Marcus Mariota tosses a pick on the first play of overtime and seals the Commanders’ fate in Madrid. Washington loses to Miami 16-13 and goes to 3-8 on the season.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n New England Patriots<\/a><\/strong> – TreVeyon Henderson scores three touchdowns as his breakout continues. The Jets stood no chance against the Patriots as they improved to 9-2 to stay atop the division.<\/p>\n Miami Dolphins<\/a><\/strong> – The Dolphins pick up a win overseas in Spain in overtime. De\u2019Von Achane\u2019s 165 total yards helps Miami pick up its third win in the last four games.<\/p>\n Buffalo Bills<\/a><\/strong> – Josh Allen plays Superman once again as he scores six total touchdowns and grabs a win against the Buccaneers. Buffalo moves to 7-3, still on the heels of the Patriots atop of the division.<\/p>\n New York Jets<\/a><\/strong> – The Jets had a good start to the game, scoring an opening touchdown, but were stifled for the rest of the game. In Aaron Glenn fashion, \u201ceverything\u201d is continuing to be evaluated as the Jets fall to 2-8.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Chicago Bears<\/a><\/strong> – The Bears stave off a late fourth-quarter rally by Minnesota to rattle off their seventh win in their last eight games. The Bears now sit at 7-3, and they are in control of their destiny at the moment at the top of the division.<\/p>\n Green Bay Packers<\/a><\/strong> – The Packers lose Josh Jacobs in-game to injury, but they skate by Jameis Winston and the Giants 27-20. Jordan Love left the game with injury, but returned later to lead them to victory to keep pace in the division.<\/p>\n Detroit Lions<\/a><\/strong> – Dan Campbell\u2019s gambles on fourth downs did not pay off against the Eagles as they went 0-for-5 on fourth downs, and they lost to the Eagles 16-9. The Lions are now one game back of the Bears for the division lead.<\/p>\n Could the Lions trade one of their key pieces after the 2025 season? See which star player may have a new home<\/a> in 2026.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Minnesota Vikings<\/a><\/strong> – J.J. McCarthy\u2019s struggles continued as he completed just 50% of his passes and threw two interceptions. The Vikings have a decision to make as their season hangs in the balance at 4-6.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Pittsburgh Steelers<\/strong><\/a> – Aaron Rodgers exited the game with a hand injury, but Mason Rudolph stayed ready and helped get the job done in a blowout win over the Bengals, 34-12. The Steelers defense is playing well as we normally expect, and created two turnovers that were both turned into touchdowns on Sunday.<\/p>\n Cincinnati Bengals<\/a><\/strong> – Cincinnati was not able to repeat their performance from a few weeks ago against the Steelers as they fell to 3-7 with Joe Burrow\u2019s return looming large. It will be interesting if Burrow chooses to come back earlier than expected.<\/p>\n Baltimore Ravens<\/a><\/strong> – Lamar throws two picks, but Derrick Henry rushes for 103 yards and two touchdowns in a comeback victory against the Browns. The Ravens pull even to .500 on the season at 5-5.<\/p>\nAFC West<\/h3>\n
