Jacksonville Jaguars vs. San Francisco 49ers

After remaining undefeated for the 5 games of the season, Brock Purdy seemed to lose his mojo after losing 3 consecutive games. They are currently 5-3 and are up against a 6-2 Jaguars. Both teams are currently at the top of their respective divisions. After playing two international games in London, the Jaguars are coming off five back-to-back wins.

Dallas Cowboys vs. New York Giants

Another divisional rivalry will play out on November 12, 4:25 p.m. ET as the Giants take on the Cowboys at AT&T Stadium.

Seattle Seahawks vs. Washington Commanders

At Lumen Field, the 5-3 Seahawks will take on the 4-5 Commanders. The Commanders have played the Seahawks only 22 times, with Washington winning 13 of those games. Will history repeat itself as Seattle seeks to decrease the margin between the two teams or will the Commanders emerge victorious?

Indianapolis Colts vs. New England Patriots

In the second game to be played in Germany, the 2-7 Patriots will take on the 4-5 Colts. It will be a crucial moment for Patriots HC and GM, Bill Belichick, as he tries to prove to the world that he can still make his team win without Tom Brady.

Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Green Bay Packers

The 3-5 Packers team will take on the 5-3 Steelers. The Steelers are one of the two teams with the most Super Bowl wins at 6.

Cincinnati Bengals vs. Houston Texans

The 4-4 Texans will take on the 5-3 Bengals at Paycor Stadium. Joe Burrow is working his mid-season magic as he has led his team through four back-to-back wins.

The Detroit Lions have a winning score of 6-2 and are at the top of their NFC North division, while the Chargers have a mediocre score of 4-4. The matchup will play out at SoFi Stadium, on November 12, at 4:05 p.m. ET. The Lions are coming out of their bye-week, well rested and ready to take on the Los Angeles team. Will Jared Goff and Co manage to convert the Chargers’ 0.500 record into a losing record?

Arizona Cardinals vs. Atlanta Falcons

The University of Phoenix Stadium will be the stage for the game between the 4-5 Falcons and the Cardinals. The Cardinals, after 9 games, have just won one game and lost eight. It’s about as bad as it can get for the team. If they lose this game the score will be 1-9. They will have to win all of their next games to come out of this season with a 0.500 record. That seems difficult, and it looks like they’re on the path to a losing season, with the only solace being an early-round pick in the NFL Draft 2024. The game starts at 2:05 p.m. ET on November 12.
