Comprehensive game-by-game breakdowns, injury reports, betting markets, and expert predictions for all 15 fixtures spanning Thursday through Monday Night Football
Executive Summary
After ten weeks of proper chaos, the 2025 NFL season has settled into something resembling coherence. Kind of. We've got the Indianapolis Colts sitting pretty at 8-2 atop the AFC, Drake Maye transforming the Patriots into genuine contenders with an 8-2 record of their own, and somehow the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams are co-leading the NFC West at 7-2.
Week 11 (November 14-18) delivers fifteen fixtures spanning Thursday through Monday, featuring divisional grudge matches, playoff positioning battles, and a Madrid special before dawn. The upstarts are proving real, the pretenders are getting exposed, and the betting markets are all over the shop—which is precisely where we want them.
League Context & Current Standings
AFC Standings Breakdown
The conference pecking order tells a fascinating story of expectation versus reality. Indianapolis leads the pack at 8-2 (.800), propelled by Jonathan Taylor's historic campaign—the running back has already amassed 1,139 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns through ten games. The Colts' 32.1 points per game leads the entire league, whilst their defense allows just 20.6 points per contest.
New England's resurgence under Drake Maye continues to confound pre-season projections. At 8-2, the Patriots have won seven consecutive matches, with Maye posting a 113.9 passer rating whilst completing 71.7% of passes for 2,555 yards, 19 touchdowns against just five interceptions. The Denver Broncos (8-2) round out the top trio, though their recent performances—grinding out 13-11, 18-15, and 10-7 victories—suggest they're riding borrowed time.
Division leaders include Pittsburgh (5-4) atop the AFC North despite recent struggles, whilst the wild card race features the Chargers (7-3), Bills (6-3), and Jaguars (5-4) battling for playoff positioning. Kansas City, improbably, sits outside the playoff picture at 5-4 despite Patrick Mahomes, whilst the Chiefs' four losses match their entire 2023 regular season total.
NFC Standings Breakdown
Philadelphia (6-2) holds the conference's best record on tiebreakers over Seattle (7-2) and the Rams (7-2), with all three separated by conference record. The Eagles' recent acquisitions of Jaire Alexander, Jaelan Phillips, and Michael Carter signal a proper title push.
Detroit (6-3) leads the NFC North after Green Bay's Monday night defeat, posting the league's second-highest scoring offense at 31.4 points per game. The Lions' 283 points for through nine matches represents elite offensive firepower, though their defense remains a concern at 22.2 points allowed per contest.
Tampa Bay (6-3) controls the NFC South despite recent inconsistency, Carolina (5-5) sits at .500 after Dave Canales orchestrated the second team since 1970 to achieve a winning record whilst being underdogs in every match, and the NFC East features Philadelphia well clear of Dallas (3-5-1).
Season Trends & Statistical Overview
| Category | Leaders | Stats |
|---|---|---|
| Points Per Game | Indianapolis | 32.1 PPG |
| Detroit | 31.4 PPG | |
| Seattle | 30.6 PPG | |

The league's evolved into a tale of two conferences: the AFC features parity chaos with eight teams between 8-2 and 4-5, whilst the NFC has clearer delineation between contenders and also-rans.
Top Performer Race & Player Analysis
Quarterback MVP Watch
Drake Maye (New England, +250/3.50)
The second-year sensation leads the MVP race after an unprecedented start. Through ten games, Maye's posted a 12.31% completion percentage over expected and 0.289 EPA per play—historic numbers. He's the fourth QB under 24 to record 200+ passing yards with a 100+ passer rating in eight consecutive games, joining Peyton Manning (2004), Tom Brady (2007), and Aaron Rodgers (2011, 2020)—all MVP winners.
His deep ball prowess is absurd: 10-of-13 for 312 yards and three touchdowns on passes 20+ air yards with zero interceptions. The schedule softens considerably with upcoming opponents holding a combined 13-27 record.
Patrick Mahomes (Kansas City, +500/6.00)
Despite the Chiefs' 5-4 record, Mahomes remains firmly in the conversation at +500. The three-time MVP has thrown for 2,349 yards and 17 touchdowns with five interceptions, though the lack of explosive playmaking compared to previous campaigns has been noticeable.
Matthew Stafford (Los Angeles Rams, +750/8.50)
The 37-year-old has entered rarefied air, becoming the first quarterback in NFL history to throw four touchdowns with zero interceptions in three consecutive games. His 20:0 TD-to-INT ratio over the past six matches is ludicrous, leading the league with 25 touchdown passes.
Josh Allen (Buffalo, +850/9.50)
After leading the MVP race for weeks, consecutive losses have knocked Allen down the odds board. Still, 15 touchdowns and five interceptions with dual-threat capabilities (311 rushing yards, seven rushing TDs) keep him relevant.
Jared Goff (Detroit, +1000/11.00)
Efficiency incarnate—74% completion rate, 2,235 yards, 22 touchdowns, and just two interceptions through nine matches. The Lions' offensive explosion makes Goff a legitimate contender if Detroit secures the one-seed.
Rushing & Receiving Leaders
Jonathan Taylor (Indianapolis)
The MVP conversation must include Taylor after his historic run. His 1,139 yards lead the league by nearly 300 yards, whilst his 15 rushing touchdowns already match elite single-season totals. Taylor's 244-yard, three-touchdown performance against Atlanta in Week 10 marked the 19th-most rushing yards in NFL history and the longest touchdown (83 yards) in an international game. He's the first player with 15+ rushing touchdowns and 6.0+ yards per carry through ten games in league history.
Receiving Leaders: The wide receiver landscape features Keenan Allen (956 receptions, franchise leader), whilst emerging stars like Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Ja'Marr Chase, and Amon-Ra St. Brown dominate weekly targets.
Rushing Yards Leaders: After Taylor, James Cook (920) and Rico Dowdle (788) follow, with De'Von Achane (780) surging after his 174-yard, two-touchdown Week 10 masterclass.
Game-by-Game Comprehensive Previews
Thursday, November 14
New York Jets (2-7) @ New England Patriots (8-2)
Kickoff: 01:15 GMT, Gillette Stadium, Foxborough, MATeam News & Injuries
Patriots: Fifteen players on the injury report heading into the short week, though most participated limitedly. Austin Hooper (concussion) is the only non-participant and likely out. Key contributors Christian Barmore (back), Terrell Jennings (knee), TreVeyon Henderson (knee), Marcus Jones (elbow), and Jaylinn Hawkins (shoulder) all limited. Positive developments: Rhamondre Stevenson (toe) and Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) returned to limited participation after missing Week 10.
Jets: Garrett Wilson (knee) will miss at least 3-4 weeks after re-injuring the same knee that sidelined him previously—a massive blow to an offense that managed just 169 total yards and 42 net passing yards in Week 10. Will McDonald IV (quad) and Harrison Phillips (foot) both DNP, whilst the defense transitions post-Sauce Gardner and Quinnen Williams trades.
Tactical Analysis
New England's success stems from Drake Maye's ability to extend plays and connect on explosive passes. The Patriots rank third in total yards per game (379.8) despite minimal running game contribution (Stevenson leads with just 157 yards). Mike Vrabel's defense has been stout, allowing 19.2 points per contest whilst generating consistent pressure.
The Jets' offense is dire—Justin Fields completed 6-of-11 for 54 yards with one touchdown and one pick in Week 10. Without Wilson, the receiving corps features rookie Arian Smith, Tyler Johnson, Isaiah Williams, John Metchie III, and newly-acquired Adonai Mitchell. Aaron Glenn refuses to name his starting quarterback, adding further chaos to preparation.
Recent Form:
- Patriots: W-W-W-W-W-W-W (8-2 overall, 7-game winning streak)
- Jets: W-W-L-L-L-L-L (2-7 overall, won two of last three)
Key Matchups
- Drake Maye vs. Jets secondary (post-Gardner): Maye should feast on a depleted defensive backfield
- Patriots pass rush vs. Fields' mobility: New England's front seven must contain Fields' scrambling
- Patriots run defense vs. Breece Hall: Hall managed 125 scrimmage yards in Week 10
Betting Analysis
The spread has inflated from early looks at -10.5 to -11.5, reflecting Wilson's absence and the Patriots' form. The short week favours New England, who have less roster turnover and superior depth. The Jets' offense ranks 32nd in most metrics and faces a Patriots defense allowing just 192 points through ten games.
The total opened at 44.5 before dropping to 43.5. Weather forecasts call for clear conditions with 39°F temperatures and light winds. Both offenses have struggled to score consistently, though the Patriots' efficiency versus the Jets' ineptitude suggests a low-scoring affair.
Value Markets
- Drake Maye Over 1.5 Passing TDs (-120/1.83): Hit in eight of ten games
- Patriots Team Total Over 26.5 (-110/1.91): Averaged 26.5 PPG this season
- Under 43.5 Total Points (-110/1.91): Jets scored 10+ points just four times in nine games
Sunday, November 16 (Early - 09:30 GMT)
Washington Commanders (3-7) @ Miami Dolphins (3-7)
Kickoff: 09:30 GMT, Santiago Bernabéu, Madrid, SpainTeam News & Injuries
Commanders: Jayden Daniels remains sidelined with a dislocated elbow suffered in Week 9, leaving Marcus Mariota under centre. Without their franchise quarterback, Washington's offense has cratered—losing five consecutive matches whilst failing to generate pressure or establish offensive rhythm.
Dolphins: Fresh off a stunning 30-13 upset of Buffalo, Miami gets Tua Tagovailoa back in form. De'Von Achane has emerged as a legitimate bell-cow back with 174 rushing yards and two touchdowns in Week 10.
Tactical Analysis
The Commanders' defense is appalling—they didn't register a single sack or quarterback hit against Detroit in Week 10, allowing Jared Goff to operate in a clean pocket all afternoon. Washington ranks near the bottom in points allowed (28.0 per game) and opponent yards per play.
Miami's offense finally clicked in Week 10, with Achane's explosiveness complementing Tua's passing game. The Dolphins' defense has shown improvement, particularly against the run, whilst their pass rush benefits from Zach Sieler and Bradley Chubb's return.
Recent Form:
- Commanders: L-L-L-L-L (3-7, five-game losing streak)
- Dolphins: W-L-W-L-L (3-7, alternating results)
Key Matchups
- Mariota vs. Dolphins' blitz packages: Washington's veteran backup must handle pressure
- Achane vs. Commanders' run defense: Washington allows 134.4 rushing yards per game
- Dolphins secondary vs. Terry McLaurin: Washington's sole playmaker needs targets
Betting Analysis
The Dolphins opened as -2.5 favorites, reflecting their Week 10 upset and the Commanders' tailspin. Without Daniels, Washington lacks offensive identity—Marcus Mariota is a competent game manager but won't stretch defenses vertically.
Madrid's neutral site status theoretically negates home advantage, though the Dolphins traveled earlier in the week for additional preparation. The total of 47.5 feels high given Washington's offensive limitations, though Miami's explosiveness could push scoring.
Value Markets
- De'Von Achane Over 84.5 Rushing Yards (-110/1.91): Averaged 86.7 yards over last three
- Dolphins Team Total Over 23.5 (-110/1.91): Scored 30 against better Bills defense
- Tua Tagovailoa Over 1.5 Passing TDs (-125/1.80): Averaging 2.1 TDs per game at home
Sunday, November 16 (Early Afternoon - 18:00 GMT)
Carolina Panthers (5-5) @ Atlanta Falcons (3-6)
Kickoff: 18:00 GMT, Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Atlanta, GATeam News & Injuries
Panthers: Bryce Young has stabilized after early-season struggles, completing 61.7% of passes for 1,514 yards with 11 touchdowns and seven interceptions. The Panthers' defense ranks middle-of-pack but excels at limiting explosive plays.
Falcons: Atlanta's four-game losing streak has derailed playoff hopes. The defense allowed Jonathan Taylor's 244-yard explosion in Week 10, whilst the offense ranks 28th in scoring at 18.7 points per game.
Tactical Analysis
Carolina thrives as underdogs—Dave Canales has orchestrated wins through ball control, limiting possessions, and opportunistic defense. The Panthers dominated this matchup in Week 3, shutting out Atlanta 30-0.
Atlanta's offense lacks rhythm under Kirk Cousins, who's struggled with decision-making and turnovers. The Falcons' run defense is porous (146.4 rushing yards allowed per game), whilst their pass rush generates minimal pressure.
Recent Form:
- Panthers: L-L-W-W-W-W-L (5-5, lost last week)
- Falcons: L-L-L-L-W-L-L (3-6, four-game losing streak)
Key Matchups
- Bryce Young vs. Falcons' zone defense: Atlanta plays zone at high rates
- Panthers' run game vs. Falcons' front seven: Carolina averages 147.3 rushing yards
- Atlanta's passing attack vs. Panthers' secondary: Cousins needs bounce-back game
Betting Analysis
Atlanta's home favorite status contradicts recent form—the Falcons have been dreadful, whilst Carolina excels as underdogs (6-4 ATS, 5-3 as ATS underdog). The Panthers' defensive blueprint worked perfectly in Week 3, and Atlanta hasn't improved since.
The total of 42.5 reflects both teams' offensive limitations. Carolina ranks 28th in scoring (17.7 PPG), Atlanta 27th (18.7 PPG). The Under cashed easily in their first meeting.
Value Markets
- Panthers +3.5 (-110/1.91): Dominant recent history
- Under 42.5 Total Points (-110/1.91): Both offenses struggle
- Bryce Young Under 214.5 Passing Yards (-110/1.91): Game script favours rushing
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (6-3) @ Buffalo Bills (6-3)
Kickoff: 18:00 GMT, Highmark Stadium, Orchard Park, NYTeam News & Injuries
Buccaneers: Multiple offensive injuries plague Tampa—Bucky Irving (foot/shoulder) and Chris Godwin remain questionable, whilst the offensive line ran thin during Week 10's loss to New England. Baker Mayfield threw for 220 yards despite missing weapons.
Bills: Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) left Week 10's loss to Miami early and is questionable. Josh Allen needs to rebound after consecutive defeats, with the offense managing just 13 points in the Miami debacle.
Tactical Analysis
Buffalo's offense ranks fifth in total yards but struggled in Week 10 against Miami's exotic blitz packages. Allen averages 237.7 passing yards with 15 touchdowns and five interceptions, adding 311 rushing yards and seven rushing TDs. The Bills' defense allows 21.9 points per game but got torched by De'Von Achane.
Tampa's offense can score in bunches when healthy—they put up 220 points through nine games despite injuries. Baker Mayfield's gunslinger mentality creates explosive plays and turnovers in equal measure. The defense struggled against Drake Maye, surrendering 10.5 yards per carry to TreVeyon Henderson.
Recent Form:
- Buccaneers: W-W-W-W-W-W-L (6-3, lost last week)
- Bills: W-W-W-W-W-W-L (6-3, lost last week)
Key Matchups
- Josh Allen vs. Tampa's secondary: Bills QB must exploit deep shots
- Bucs' pass rush vs. Bills' o-line: Buffalo allows 21.9 sacks
- Tampa's run game vs. Bills' front seven: Irving's health determines approach
Betting Analysis
The spread opened at -6.5 before dropping to -5.5 as Tampa's injuries surfaced. Buffalo rebounds well after losses (12-9-2 ATS since 2020). The Bills need this game for playoff positioning, particularly with tough December matchups looming.
The total dropped from 50.5 to 49.5, reflecting injury concerns. However, both offenses possess explosiveness when healthy. Weather forecasts call for mid-50s temperatures, mostly cloudy with no rain—ideal scoring conditions.
Value Markets
- Bills -5.5 (-110/1.91): Strong home favorite after loss
- Over 49.5 Total Points (-110/1.91): Both teams average 24+ PPG
- Josh Allen Over 26.5 Rushing Yards (-120/1.83): Rushed 30+ yards in five games
Cincinnati Bengals (3-6) @ Pittsburgh Steelers (5-4)
Kickoff: 18:00 GMT, Acrisure Stadium, Pittsburgh, PATeam News & Injuries
Bengals: Joe Flacco continues replacing the injured Joe Burrow, though Cincinnati's defense remains the league's worst—allowing 33.3 points per game and 426.6 total yards. Ja'Marr Chase leads receivers with dominant target share.
Steelers: Aaron Rodgers and Pittsburgh's offense got embarrassed by the Chargers in Week 10, managing just 17 points. The defense remains stout, ranking 12th in points allowed at 24.4 per game.
Tactical Analysis
Cincinnati beat Pittsburgh 34-27 in Week 7 behind Flacco's 342-yard, three-touchdown performance. Ja'Marr Chase destroyed the Steelers' secondary with 16 receptions for 161 yards and a touchdown. The Bengals' strategy revolves around letting Flacco air it out whilst accepting defensive limitations.
Pittsburgh's defense must improve after allowing explosive plays to the Chargers. The Steelers' offense has been inconsistent—dominant some weeks, invisible others. Home field advantage historically favours Pittsburgh in divisional matchups.
Recent Form:
- Bengals: L-W-L-W-L-L-W-L-L (3-6, lost last week)
- Steelers: L-L-W-W-W-W-W-L-L (5-4, lost last two)
Key Matchups
- Flacco vs. Pittsburgh's blitzes: Bengals QB thrives against pressure
- Ja'Marr Chase vs. Steelers' cornerbacks: Chase dominated last meeting
- Steelers' run game vs. Bengals' front: Cincinnati allows 166.4 rush yards per game
Betting Analysis
Pittsburgh's home favorite status contradicts recent results—Cincinnati won convincingly in Week 7, and the Bengals have covered five straight against the Steelers. The Bengals are 17-5 ATS in Sunday road games recently.
The total of 50.5 reflects both teams' offensive firepower. Cincinnati averages 24.0 PPG despite defensive woes, whilst Pittsburgh scores 23.6 PPG. The Over seems inevitable given Cincinnati's defensive incompetence.
Value Markets
- Bengals +5.5 (-110/1.91): Dominant recent history, strong offense
- Over 50.5 Total Points (-110/1.91): Bengals allow 33.3 PPG
- Ja'Marr Chase Over 94.5 Receiving Yards (-110/1.91): Torched Pittsburgh for 161 last time
Key Betting Markets & Analysis
Primary Markets
Spread Analysis: Week 11 features nine games with spreads of 3.5 or fewer points, creating coinflip scenarios where marginal edges determine outcomes. The Patriots (-11.5), Ravens (-8.5), and Packers (-8.5) lay the heaviest lumber, whilst the Lions-Eagles and Rams-Seahawks represent pure toss-ups.
Moneyline Value: Underdogs worth considering include the Bears (+140/2.40 at Minnesota), Panthers (+165/2.65 at Atlanta), and Lions (+102/2.02 at Philadelphia)—all feature recent form advantages contradicting market perception.
Totals Trends: The league average total sits around 45-47 points, with outliers including Texans-Titans (38.5), Ravens-Browns (41.5), and Lions-Eagles (49.5). Weather impacts the Cleveland game significantly, whilst both primetime Sunday matchups feature elite offenses.

Players to Watch
Star Performers
Drake Maye (QB, New England)
The MVP favourite faces the Jets' depleted secondary in a dream matchup. Maye's 71.7% completion rate, 113.9 passer rating, and eight consecutive games with 200+ passing yards and 100+ rating make him must-watch television.
Jonathan Taylor (RB, Indianapolis)
Already the league's leading rusher with 1,139 yards and 15 touchdowns, Taylor's historic pace suggests a 2,000-yard season is possible. His 244-yard explosion against Atlanta showcased elite vision, power, and acceleration.
Matthew Stafford (QB, Los Angeles Rams)
At 37, Stafford's playing the best football of his career—25 touchdowns without an interception over the past six games represents unprecedented efficiency. The Seahawks matchup determines NFC West supremacy.
Ja'Marr Chase (WR, Cincinnati)
Chase torched Pittsburgh for 264 yards and three touchdowns earlier this season. His matchup against the Steelers' vulnerable secondary suggests another explosive performance.
Josh Allen (QB, Buffalo)
After consecutive losses, Allen needs a bounce-back performance against Tampa Bay. His dual-threat capabilities (15 passing TDs, seven rushing TDs) make him dangerous in any game state.
Breakthrough Candidates
- TreVeyon Henderson (RB, New England): The rookie exploded for two long touchdowns against Tampa Bay, showcasing elite burst and vision. With Rhamondre Stevenson banged up, Henderson could see increased touches.
- Bo Nix (QB, Denver): Despite recent struggles, Nix's game-managing approach has Denver at 8-2. His performance against Mahomes and the Chiefs' defence will determine if he's legitimate or fraudulent.
- Caleb Williams (QB, Chicago): The rookie has been brilliant recently—220 passing yards plus 63 rushing yards and two total touchdowns against the Giants. His dual-threat skill set creates matchup nightmares.
- Bryce Young (QB, Carolina): After early-season benching, Young has stabilized Carolina's offense. His performance against the Falcons could cement his starting role moving forward.
Injury Concerns
Key Injuries to Monitor:
- Garrett Wilson (WR, New York Jets): Out 3-4 weeks with knee sprain—massive blow to Jets' offense
- Jayden Daniels (QB, Washington): Dislocated elbow keeps franchise QB sidelined indefinitely
- Brock Purdy (QB, San Francisco): Toe injury forces Mac Jones into starting role
- C.J. Stroud (QB, Houston): Concussion keeps status uncertain for Titans game
- Bucky Irving (RB, Tampa Bay): Foot/shoulder injuries leave availability questionable
- Chris Godwin (WR, Tampa Bay): Remains questionable after missing Week 10

Upset Watch
Potential Shock Results
1. Bears over Vikings: Chicago's form suggests they're legitimately better than their 6-3 record indicates. Minnesota's home losses and McCarthy's turnover issues create vulnerability.
2. Panthers over Falcons: Carolina already embarrassed Atlanta 30-0 this season. Dave Canales' ability to win as underdog suggests another stunner is possible.
3. Broncos over Chiefs: Denver's 8-2 record demands respect despite ugly wins. Home advantage and Chiefs' road struggles (1-2 ATS) create upset potential.
4. Lions over Eagles: Detroit's offense is unstoppable when clicking. Philadelphia's defensive vulnerabilities (120 rushing yards allowed per game) play directly into Detroit's strengths.

Final Thoughts
Week 11 presents everything you want in NFL football—playoff positioning battles, divisional grudge matches, MVP races crystallizing, and enough chaos to make your head spin. The Patriots' resurgence under Drake Maye has been the season's most captivating storyline, Indianapolis' Jonathan Taylor is rewriting record books in real-time, and the NFC West features two 7-2 teams battling for supremacy.
Meanwhile, the Chiefs find themselves in unfamiliar territory outside playoff positioning, the Commanders' season has imploded without Jayden Daniels, and somehow the Bears might be legitimate contenders.
The betting markets are offering value everywhere if you know where to look. Fade the public on overvalued favourites like the Vikings and Falcons, back superior form with the Bears and Panthers, and trust elite defenses in weather-impacted games like Ravens-Browns. The primetime Sunday matchups (Lions-Eagles, Rams-Seahawks) deliver pure entertainment with playoff implications, whilst the Thursday night Patriots massacre of the Jets offers a palate cleanser before Sunday's chaos begins.
Remember: NFL football is gloriously unpredictable—the league where the Jets beat nobody and somehow the Panthers are 5-5 despite being underdogs every single match. Trust your research, respect the variance, and enjoy the madness that is Week 11.
Good luck with your Week 11 wagers!
