We’re in Week 11 of the NFL Season, and it’s the last week with an International game. Only two teams are on a bye this week, leaving 13 games on the Sunday slate. Below are the five I’m most excited to see.
Early Games:
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (6-3) at Buffalo Bills (6-3)
About: Both teams have playoff aspirations. Both are coming off tough losses in Week 10. That gives both teams some pressure to win, especially as they seek to improve their standing in the conference. So, which team gets it done? That’s the challenge that will be facing audiences for this huge matchup in the early window.
Los Angeles Chargers (7-3) at Jacksonville Jaguars (5-4)
About: This is two second-place teams in their division hoping to remain in the playoff picture. The Chargers, despite injuries, just keep winning. They’re chasing the Broncos and trying to stay ahead of the Chiefs. The Jaguars, meanwhile, have a tenuous grasp on the playoff picture. They need wins, so the Jaguars need to stand tall and get a victory against another good team. Will this be the week?
Late Games:
Seattle Seahawks (7-2) at Los Angeles Rams (7-2)
About: The NFC West is a horse race, with three teams vying for the top spot. Coming into Week 11, the Seahawks have a narrow tiebreaker over the Rams. The winner of this game will have sole possession of first place and a leg up in a tight division. There are massive stakes for this divisional battle.
Kansas City Chiefs (5-4) at Denver Broncos (8-2)
About: If the playoffs started today, the Chiefs would be out. The Broncos, meanwhile, lead the AFC West and are on track for a top seed in the AFC. But to be the best, you have to beat the best. That means getting a win over the Chiefs. The Chiefs come to Denver to face a fierce defense and an offense that has been on the struggle bus. Who will win out? This should be one of the best games of the week.
Sunday Night Football:
Detroit Lions (6-3) at Philadelphia Eagles (7-2)
About: This is a big one in the NFC. The Lions are leading in the NFC North, but it’s a three-horse race. The Eagles are leading the NFC East and chasing the top seed in the NFC. Both teams have been inconsistent in 2025. Who can pull it together and play a complete game to get the victory?
