Post NFL-Week 11: 5 Teams Whose Stocks Are Up

Tommy DeVito

The New York Giants' season was long over before Sunday, but how about Tommy DeVito? If you had told me on Saturday that DeVito would have thrown three touchdowns, I would’ve thought you were out of your mind. Man, did he look improved. Giants fans probably didn’t want them to win as they’re searching for the best draft position possible but with favorable games over the next weeks against the Patriots and Packers, maybe DeVito and the Giants will keep surprising people.

Denver Broncos

Uh, will the Denver Broncos make the playoffs? After an embarrassing start to the season, the Broncos find themselves on a four-game winning streak and back in the playoff picture. Russell Wilson looks the best he has in years alongside an improving running attack, the defense is stepping up in critical spots as they were predicted to early in the year, and Sean Payton has finally inserted confidence in this team that they can beat anyone. The road doesn’t get much easier for the Broncos with looming games against Cleveland, Houston, and Detroit over their next four games, but the Broncos cannot be counted out now.

Buffalo Bills

It’s hard to buy into the Buffalo Bills long-term, given their ups and downs, but they stepped up when they needed to the most to keep the season alive. Yes, it was against Zach Wilson and the New York Jets, but with their next three games in Philadelphia, in Kansas City, and against Dallas, a loss yesterday would have been the nail in the coffin for the Bills' season. We’ll see if they step up and play to their potential over these next three weeks.

Cleveland Browns

Deshaun Watson’s season-ending injury was a gut punch for a team that already lost Nick Chubb and witnessed lackluster their other quarterback options, but Sunday reminded us that this team has a championship-level defense. They took down the then 6-3 Pittsburgh Steelers as Dorian Thompson-Robinson did what he needed to at the quarterback spot to get the job done. It won’t always be easy, but if Thompson-Robinson is able to stabilize, and the defense balls out weekly, the Browns will be a tough out in the playoffs.
