Four and out: Surprises from the NFL in Week 11
By Dani Bostick
There were plenty of surprises in Week 11 of the NFL’s regular season
Another week, another slew of NFL surprises. The Carolina Panthers are still undefeated, but it isn’t exactly shocking that they were able to beat the inconsistent Washington Redskins. The Jacksonville Jaguars beat the Tennessee Titans in a game whose main surprise was the shocking ugliness of the Color Rush uniforms. (There are more serious problems in the world right now, but someone needs to stop Color Rush. It is horrible.)
The Kansas City Chiefs continued their winning streak by beating the struggling San Diego Chargers and thus extending their winning streak to four games. The Seattle Seahawks had no problem dispatching the horribly inept San Francisco 49ers, while the Green Bay Packers beat the Minnesota Vikings. Their victory was not shocking, but perhaps their margin of victory (30-13) was.
The Cleveland Browns didn’t lose in Week 12. That would be a huge surprise for the 2-8 team at the bottom of the AFC North, but the only reason they did not was because they had a bye week. The Baltimore Ravens managed to win, but quarterback Joe Flacco suffered a season-ending ACL injury during the game.
Let’s take a look at some surprising stand outs from Week 11.
