Week 12 TNF: Steelers vs Browns
Plus: Paul vs Tyson, Fantasy Football Rankings, & Sunday Night Football
Thursday Night Football features an NFC East divisional clash between the Washington Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles in Week 11.
The Commanders (7-3) are coming off a heartbreaking loss to the Steelers, while the Eagles (7-2) just blew out the Cowboys.
The Eagles are currently on a five-game winning streak, led by significant improvements from their defense.
Just take a look at what this group has done since their Week 5 bye:
Weeks 1-4: 28th in Pass EPA, 20th in Rush EPA
Weeks 6-10: 1st in Pass EPA, 3rd in Rush EPA
We just saw the Steelers elite defense limit Jayden Daniels to only 5.9 yards per attempt through the air along with five rushing yards.
There's a chance that the Eagles defense will be able to limit Daniels as well.
Add in home-field advantage, and you can see why Philly has the edge in this spot.
TNF Score Prediction: Eagles 27, Commanders 20

Paul vs Tyson
Fantasy Football Rankings
Sunday Night Football
🥊 Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson
Popular content creator turned boxer Jake Paul and the legendary Mike Tyson will finally go at it at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas on Friday, Nov. 15, at 8 p.m. ET. This was supposed to take place in July but was rescheduled due to an ulcer flare-up for Tyson.
What's unique about the Paul vs Tyson fight is that it will be live-streamed on Netflix instead of your usual pay-per-view format. They will also use 14-ounce gloves instead of the standard 10-ounce that we usually see in heavyweight bouts.
It's going to be interesting to see how the 58-year-old Tyson will fare in his first sanctioned fight in 19 years. Paul, now 27 years old, has a 10-1 record, winning both of his fights this year.
With that in mind, let's dive into my Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson best bets and predictions. Click the link below to find out more.
🏈 Fantasy Football Rankings
Last year, Frank Ammirante's fantasy football rankings finished sixth in the FantasyPros Accuracy contest. He's currently 57th overall this season, so be sure to use these ranks to help set your lineups.
Here’s a preview of our Week 11 fantasy football rankings:
Justin Herbert is averaging 21.1 fantasy points per game in his last three, ranking as QB8 during that stretch. This includes two games with 275+ passing yards and two with 30+ rushing yards.
Audric Estime has taken over the Broncos' backfield, out-touching Javonte Williams 14-to-3 against the Chiefs last week. This is a much less daunting matchup vs the Falcons, who rank 20th in Rush EPA.
Calvin Ridley has been terrific since DeAndre Hopkins got traded, averaging 16.8 fantasy points per game (WR5) in three matchups. This is a good spot vs the Vikings, who rank 30th in fantasy PPG vs wideouts.
T.J. Hockenson came alive against the Jaguars last week, catching 8-of-9 targets for 72 yards. We could see Hockenson continue to act as Sam Darnold's safety valve against an underrated Titans defense.
🏈 Sunday Night Football
Two AFC wild-card contenders will meet in the Week 11 edition of Sunday Night Football when the Cincinnati Bengals (4-6) visit SoFi Stadium to take on the Los Angeles Chargers (6-3).
Joe Burrow and the Bengals desperately need a victory following their 35-34 loss in Baltimore on Thursday Night Football. Meanwhile, Justin Herbert and the Chargers have reeled off three straight wins and four of five since their Week 5 bye.
Here’s a sneak peek of our Week 11 SNF best bets:
SNF Pick Against the Spread: Bengals +1.5 (-108) @ Chargers
Jim Harbaugh has made an immediate impact in LA, but this feels like a good time to sell high on the Chargers.
Usually, I wouldn’t bother taking the points when less than two are offered. However, Cincinnati has lost two games by one-point margins this season, so I can’t rule out another heart-wrenching Bengals defeat.
Back Joe Burrow and Co. to cover the spread.
