After another defeat of Packers in the face of Titans always so serious, place now for the rest of the NFL. This week, head to NFC. Minnesota may have just emerged as the winner of the match of the year once morest the Billsbut the men of Kevin O’Connell will have to be on deck once more. They receive a team of Dallas who wants to make up for his defeat once morest the Packers. Vikings–Cowboys is THE match not to be missed this week.
Spotlight also on a pass-rusher duel, theAFC Ouesta mad runner and Sean McVay. Here is precisely the program for week 11.
The match not to be missed
Kick-off Sunday at 10:25 p.m.
Minnesota Vikings (8-1) – Dallas Cowboys (6-3)
Since the defeat of Eagles last Monday, Minnesota is now the team to beat. Whoever has the longest winning streak in NFL currently (7). A feeling reinforced by his victory over the Bills last week in the form of a message sent to the league: we will have to be strong to bring down these Vikings-the. That’s good, it’s the ambition of Dallas. The Cowboys move to Minneapolis with the idea of repositioning themselves in this race for the playoffs by NFC. Their defeat once morest Packers the past week has hurt them. As in the face of Bears the previous weekend, they took in more than 200 yards on the ground.
A sector that will need to be strongly strengthened in the face of Dalvin Cook. The running back comes out of a great performance once morest the Billsincluding a touchdown of 81 yards. But it will also take (and especially) beware of the air. The distance duel between Justin Jefferson et CeeDee Lamb promises to be explosive!
Le duel: Von Miller vs. Myles Garrett
Kick-off Sunday at 7:00 p.m.
Buffalo Bills (6-3) – Cleveland Browns (3-6)
By Miller et Myles Garrett are much more related than it seems. First statistically. They are indeed the only two players to have accumulated 7 or more sacks in each of the past 6 seasons. Symbol of performance and longevity. But this is not the only common point between them. They both come from Texas A&M for example. Moreover, the day when By Miller broke the sack record for Broncoshe had exchanged his shirt with… Myles Garrett.
This season, they are still at the top of the basket. By Miller has already 10 sackswhile Myles Garrett is at 8. Sunday, they will have an opportunity to increase this total. The Bills welcome Cleveland at Detroit because of weather forecast to be complicated on the side of Buffalo.
At the state: 13
Kick-off Sunday at 7:00 p.m.
New England Patriots (5-4) – New York Jets (6-3)
Here is the number of consecutive victories of New England on New York. It’s simple, the Jets have not beaten their rivals since extra time in week 16 of the 2015 season. 8 ans without victory, at the rate of two confrontations per year. Suffice to say an eternity in NFL. Rarely the term ” black beast “ will be so apropos. Take for example this season. The Jets started their revival with in particular victories once morest the Bills or to Dolphins, proving that they are strong contenders for the title in this division. A match once morest Patriots, who flirt with 50% of victory since the beginning of the year, should only be a piece of cake. In any case, that’s what we said to ourselves when the men of Robert Saleh welcomed New England as they stayed on 4 consecutive wins.
Except that as for many seasons, New York failed to measure up. Zach Wilson was below everything with in particular 3 interceptions and the New Yorker relentlessly stumbled upon this defense of Patriots (22-17). This Sunday, they once more have the opportunity to put an end to this series. A victory in the Massachusetts would definitively confirm the change of era for the Jets. Robert Saleh and are his men capable of it? Answer Sunday.
Player: Saquon Barkley
Kick-off Sunday at 7:00 p.m.
New York Giants (7-2) – Detroit Lions (3-6)
With already seven wins in nine games, the Giants off to a thunderous start to the season. An explosion which is a combination of factors. For example, we never cease to weave praises to Brian Daboll. We also congratulate this defense which is more and more solid. But if New York is where it is today, it is above all thanks to a man: Saquon Barkley. The running back is back to its best. Before this week 11he is the runner who amassed the most yards (931). For example, he martyred the defense of Texans last week with no less than 152 units won.
And it would not be surprising if he repeated this Sunday. In front of him, he will have one of the worst squads in this sector (161 yards allowed per game on the ground, 31st in NFL). The opportunity to further confirm his return among the best runners in the league. And allow the Giants to keep winning.
Coach: Sean McVay
Kick-off Sunday at 7:00 p.m.
New Orleans Saints (3-7) – Los Angeles Rams (3-6)
A state of emergency is declared at The Angels. For the first time since arriving in California, Sean McVay displays a balance sheet under 50%. Mostly the Rams start the weekend with 2.5 wins behind on the leader of the NFC Ouest : Seattle. the playoffs are getting further and further away for the defending champion. The technician must absolutely find the solution. And quick. This Sunday, the Californian team moves to Louisiana to face up to Saints which are not much better.
On one side or the other, the position of quarterback will be a question mark as this meeting approaches. For The Angels, Matthew Stafford, absent last week, has resumed training and might be able to hold his place. For New Orleansthe performance ofAndy Dalton have not convinced and it might be that Denis Allen choose to trust once more Jameis Winston.
AFC West
Kick-off Sunday at 10:05 p.m.
Denver Broncos (3-6) – Las Vegas Raiders (2-7)
Kick-off in the night from Sunday to Monday 02:20
Los Angeles Chargers (5-4) – Kansas City Chiefs (7-2)
When the four teams of a division compete within the same weekend, it is necessarily a small event. At the start of the season, this AFC Ouest was billed as the league’s top division. A few weeks later, reality caught up with some of these teams. Whether Kansas City has regained its cruising speed, others are in great difficulty. This is the case of Denver et Las Vegas. Between them, these franchises display only 5 cumulative successes. Sunday, Broncos et Raiders meet for the fear match. Woe to the loser at the end of this game.
Side Chargers, it’s a bit better. We sometimes tend to forget it, but The Angels shows a positive record and is still in the playoff race. But expectations were so high for this team that this uneven start to the season is somewhat disappointing. The state of health of Justin Herbert always raises questions. During this Sunday Night Footballit will however require the best version of the launcher to endanger the Chiefs. In this disappointing division, Patrick Mahomes and his teammates manage to be consistent. With 7 winsthey are once once more consolidating their rank as conference leaders.
The (other) division duels
Kick-off Sunday at 10:25 p.m.
Pittsburgh Steelers (3-6) – Cincinnati Bengals (5-4)
Kick-off in the night from Monday to Tuesday at 02:30
Arizona Cardinals (4-6) – San Francisco 49ers (5-4)
L’AFC Ouest will not be the only division to offer us duels. In the second part of the evening, the unfortunate losers of the last Super Bowl move to Pittsburgh. Like their explosion last year, the Bengals want to take advantage of this second part of the season to find a dynamic and be able to defend their title of champion of theAFC. This week of rest might have done them good to prepare for this match once morest the Steelers. And even if the men of Mike Tomlin are sometimes in difficulty this season, we still remember that they had put a real cold snap on Cincinnati few months ago. A victory 23-20 to the general surprise once morest the Bengals from week 1 which had brought down Joe Burrow and his on earth.
Finally, we will have to wait for the last match of the weekend to see the final division duel. This time, heading for the NFC with a confrontationWest. Even if geographically, it will rather be necessary to turn towards the south, because the NFL has decided to relocate this meeting to Mexico. Cardinals et 49ers will therefore play in the Mexican capital for a Monday Night Football which promises to be explosive. A small nod to history too since these two franchises had played the first regular season game out of UNITED STATES. It was in 2005 and it was already Aztec Stadium of Mexico. Arizona took it away 31-14 and the 49ers now have the opportunity to take revenge.
The rest
Kick-off Sunday at 7:00 p.m.
Atlanta Falcons (4-6) – Chicago Bears (3-7)
Kick-off Sunday at 7:00 p.m.
Baltimore Ravens (6-3) – Carolina Panthers (3-7)
Kick-off Sunday at 7:00 p.m.
Houston Texans (1-7-1) – Washington Commanders (5-5)
Kick-off Sunday at 7:00 p.m.
Indianapolis Colts (4-5-1) – Philadelphia Eagles (8-1)
In the rest of the matches of the week, Atlanta et Chicago risk engaging in a duel clinging to the ground. Both franchises have the most rush attempts since the start of the season (360 for Bears and 328 for Falcons) and should not change philosophy this Sunday. Another ground-facing team, Baltimore is back from his week off. The Ravens welcome Carolina for a largely affordable return to competition.
At the same time, the Commanders want to confirm their great victory once morest the Eagles with a move to Houston. On paper, the adversity is much less. Washington goes from one of the best teams in the league, to one of the weakest. However, beware of overconfidence. The Eagles precisely want them to return to the path of victory. Direction theIndianapolis for this with a meeting once morest the Colts. Jeff Saturday is currently undefeated and Jalen Hurts and his teammates want to bring him down.
