The NFL season moves into its 11th week and there’s still plenty to play for as 2020 winds down for each of the league’s 32 teams. Divisions and playoff spots are still up for grabs as nothing has been set in stone just yet. Most teams are chasing the Pittsburgh Steelers for the best team in the league superlative. The Steelers are undefeated and could move to 10-0 with a victory on Sunday. Teams in the middle of the pack, such as the Detroit Lions and New England Patriots, need a win to stay afloat in their respective wild card races. The New York Jets are among the teams who are hoping that a poor season doesn’t go any further. New York is facing starting 0-10 for the first time in its history. The Las Vegas Raiders and Cleveland Browns are among teams dealing with multiple players on the reserve/COVID-19 list. It will be interesting to see whether those players get cleared to play before Sunday’s round of games. The Buffalo Bills, Chicago Bears, New York Giants, and San Francisco 49ers have bye weeks. Here’s what’s on tap this week. ** The Seahawks and the Cardinals are featured in the most anticipated Thursday night football of the season. Both teams are 6-3 and whoever wins will take the division lead for the moment. Russell Wilson is hoping for a bounce-back game while Kyler Murray is hoping to build on the momentum from last week’s wild victory. ** The Ravens and Titans meet for the 21st time in history. Both teams are in similar spots as the Seahawks and Cardinals, except this matchup has more wild card implications in case both teams falter down the stretch. A win for either team could be the difference-maker in going in or out of the playoffs.
