Green Bay Packers
Coming off a tightly contested road loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 10, the Green Bay Packers played host to the Los Angeles Chargers as a three-point underdog in Week 11. Despite the Chargers being the more talented team on paper, the Packers were able to play the role of spoiler and pick up the win. The Chargers can never seem to get out of their own way, having multiple opportunities to win this football game. Ultimately, you have to give Green Bay credit for doing enough to win this football game.
Cleveland Browns
After Deshaun Watson's season ended in Week 10 against the Baltimore Ravens, it was difficult to say how the Cleveland Browns would react against another AFC North foe in Week 11. Dorian Thompson-Robinson got the start for the Browns against Pittsburgh, and although he didn't do much damage, he was able to lead the team on a game-winning drive in the fourth quarter. The Browns' offense is a work in progress, but their defense remains Super Bowl-caliber.
Denver Broncos
After starting the regular season 1-5, the Denver Broncos looked more like a punchline than a contender in the AFC. They've since strung together four straight wins and are now at least present in the AFC playoff picture. Russell Wilson looks much more like the quarterback he did in his prime with the Seattle Seahawks, and the defense has looked night-and-day from the one that allowed a 70-burger to the Miami Dolphins.
Los Angeles Rams
There were a lot of points on Sunday afternoon in Week 11 where it looked like it just wasn't the Los Angeles Rams day. Although they bent on many occasions, their defense never broke, allowing them to stay in the game. The Rams outscored the Seattle Seahawks 10-0 in the fourth quarter and ultimately took the contest 17-16. The win allowed the Rams to sweep the season series over the Seahawks. Although it'll be difficult to get back in the NFC playoff picture, the Rams pulled off a nice victory in Week 11.
Jacksonville Jaguars
It would be an understatement to say it was a disappointing Week 10 for the Jacksonville Jaguars against the San Francisco 49ers. On the docket in Week 11 for the Jaguars was an AFC South divisional rival in the Tennessee Titans. Although the Jaguars were a touchdown-sized favorite, divisional games are often hard to predict in the NFL. The Jaguars didn't leave any room for interpretation on Sunday, though, dominating the Titans from start to finish. The Jaguars victory improved them to 7-3, which has them one game up on the surprising Houston Texans for the division lead.
