5. New York Jets (4-5) at Buffalo Bills (5-5)
Sunday, 4:25 p.m. ET on CBS
The Bills enter Week 11 in a bit of a freefall. After Monday’s disastrous loss to the Denver Broncos, Buffalo has lost two games in a row, three of four, and four of six.
Originally the favorites to win the AFC East, Buffalo is currently the 10th seed in the AFC playoffs and would fall into third place in the AFC East with a loss to the Jets on Sunday.
Back in Week 1, the Jets were able to band together after losing Aaron Rodgers in the opening minutes of the game and beat the Bills, 22-16. A big part of that was the Jets’ defense forcing four turnovers – including three interceptions by Josh Allen. Allen’s turnover woes haven’t decreased since, and the Jets’ defense seems to have his number. There’s a decent chance the Bills are an under-.500 football team by the time Sunday night rolls around.
4. Denver Broncos (4-5) at Minnesota Vikings (6-4)
Sunday, 8:20 p.m. ET on NBC
Coming off of that upset win in Buffalo, the Broncos are on the verge of getting back to .500 and re-entering the AFC Wild Card race. The biggest key to their turnaround has been their defense, which after allowing 70 points to the Dolphins early in the year has allowed 16.8 points per game over the last four games. They’ve also forced 11 turnovers in that span, as the Broncos have won three in a row.
This week they’ll test the improbable quarterback story that is Josh Dobbs, who is 2-0 since getting traded by the Cardinals to the Vikings at the trade deadline. Last week, following his first full week of preparation, he completed 23-of-34 passes for 268 yards and a touchdown in a 27-19 win over the Saints. That was the Vikings’ fifth win in a row.
Who comes out on top when two of the best stories in the NFL right now face off? That Broncos defense could very well end up being the deciding factor in this one.

3. Pittsburgh Steelers (6-3) at Cleveland Browns (6-3)
Sunday, 1:00 p.m. ET on CBS
In the first of two AFC North matchups this week, the Steelers play the Browns for the second time this year. The Steelers won the first matchup, a 26-22 game back in Week 2.
This week the Browns won’t have Deshaun Watson, who is out for the season with a shoulder injury. Still, a big part of the Browns’ identity this year has been overcoming injuries.
The AFC North is the tightest division in football with all four teams over .500, so this game is crucial. Will the Browns be able to overcome the Steelers’ 11th-ranked defense with a backup quarterback? If they don’t it will be Pittsburgh keeping pace with the winner of our next game.
2. Cincinnati Bengals (5-4) at Baltimore Ravens (7-2)
Thursday, 8:15 p.m. ET on Prime Video
Week 11 starts with two teams coming off of losses entering a must-win game. The Bengals looked to have been turning things around after a rough start, winning four games in a row before losing a 30-27 thriller to the Houston Texans last week. On the other side the Ravens had their own four-game winning streak snapped, losing at home to the Cleveland Browns.
When these teams met back in Week 2 it was a close game, with the Ravens coming out on top 27-24 in Cincinnati. However, Joe Burrow is now healthy and the Bengals seem to have things figured out much more now than they did then. This win would be massive for Cincinnati’s playoff hopes, look for them to have a strong showing with their backs against the wall.

1. Philadelphia Eagles (8-1) at Kansas City Chiefs (7-2)
Monday, 8:15 p.m. ET on ABC, ESPN, and ESPN 2
This game is a Super Bowl LVII rematch – but could it be a Super Bowl LVIII preview as well. There’s a strong case to be made that the Eagles and Chiefs are once again the two best teams in football.
Both of these teams come in off of their bye week, meaning each coaching staff has had extra time to prepare. Even though the Chiefs offense has struggled at times this year, this should still be a high-scoring game.
Generally in these championship revenge games, the team that lost the title responds. Even though they’re on the road, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see the Eagles go into Arrowhead and win this game.
Regional restrictions may apply.
