NFL Week 11 Best Bets, Parlays & Predictions

Week 11 of the NFL season features some of the best matchups so far this season. The week begins, however, with Thursday Night Football on Prime Video with the New York Jets at the New England Patriots.

Sunday morning has the last international game of the season with Washington playing Miami in Spain on NFL Network. The early window on Sunday features the Bucs at the Bills on CBS, while the late window has two huge games with the Seahawks visiting the Rams on FOX and the Chiefs at the Broncos on CBS.

The Sunday Night Football game on NBC is one of the best of the season with the Lions at the Eagles. Week 11 concludes on Monday night with the Cowboys at the Raiders on ABC and ESPN. The Colts and Saints are on bye this week.

NFL Week 11 Best Bets

I am coming off a slight winning week, going 3-2-1 against the NFL betting pointspread with the predictions, as the Raiders, Saints and Patriots came through, while the Cardinals and Commanders did not. The Falcons plus the six points against the Colts was a tough-luck push.

As a reminder, when it comes to NFL best bets each week you should know that I go against the grain with almost all of my picks. If the public does well, then I will probably struggle, but if the public loses, then I will probably have a good week. Let’s look at Week 11 NFL predictions.

Washington Commanders +3 vs. Miami Dolphins
The public doesn’t want anything to do with Washington after last week’s performance against Detroit. The Dolphins played well last week, but can they be trusted laying points? I’ll go against the public and take Washington plus the points.
Jacksonville Jaguars +3 vs. Los Angeles Chargers
I know that the Chargers looked great last week and the Jaguars blew a big lead to Houston and lost, but is this an overreaction? The public is all over the Chargers in this game, so I will go against the public and take the Jaguars plus the points.
Seattle Seahawks +3 at Los Angeles Rams
The public is now in love with the Rams, but the Seahawks are a really good team and they seem to win every one of their road games. I will go against the public and take Seattle plus the points.
Cleveland Browns +8 vs. Baltimore Ravens
The public doesn’t like the Browns and they are in love with the Ravens now that Lamar is back. I actually agree with the public in this game, but these plays go against the public, even when they are ugly. I’ll take the points with the Browns.

NFL Week 11 Parlays

The parlays are really just a bonus section and if they come through it is just some extra money. Both of last week’s parlays lost but the loss on the Jaguars in their parlay really hurts, as Jacksonville blew a big fourth quarter lead. Let’s look at the NFL Week 11 parlays.

Bears +3 at Vikings and Ravens -9 at Browns – I am not sold on the Vikings, as they just seem inconsistent from week to week. Chicago is playing well for Ben Johnson and they find ways to win. I’ll take the points. I don’t think there is much to like about the Browns and the Ravens are on a mission now that Lamar Jackson is back to win the division. I’ll lay the points.
Broncos +4 vs. Chiefs and Lions +2.5 at Eagles – I’ll take the underdogs in these two high-profile games. The Chiefs are the better team, but this game is in Denver and the Broncos are catching more than a field goal. I expect this game to be tight and the points are worth taking. I also think the points are worth taking with the Lions on Sunday night in what should be a great game.
