Which five NFL teams are facing “must win” situations heading into Week 11 action?

This has been one of the most intriguing NFL seasons that we have seen in quite some time, and there are plenty of playoff spots left to be won yet. There are quite a few teams that must come through with wins in Week 11, and there are a going to be some hard fought games between those teams this week.

Needless to say, this is going to be one of the most exciting weeks in the NFL season and it will be the beginning of the playoff run for some teams. Other teams will look back at Week 11 as the beginning of the end to their season. It’s hard to view one week in particular as the biggest week in the season, but there are multiple teams that are facing  a must win game if they want to make the playoffs.

That being said, this week is the most important by far for quite a few teams so far this season. There are teams that are very much alive in the playoff race, at the top of the playoff race, and very unlikely to get back into the playoff race that could very much use a win this week. Five teams in particular are facing “must win” situations this week.
