FOX Sports activities Betting Analyst

It is a week of divisional bouts and groups attempting to both construct on a streak or snap a skid within the NFL.

Can a win spark a second-half run for the Denver Broncos or Las Vegas Raiders, who meet for the second time this season? Will the Philadelphia Eagles bounce again from their first lack of the season with a win towards the Indianapolis Colts?

Listed below are my greatest bets for Week 11 of the NFL season (odds through FOX Wager).

Herd Hierarchy: Titans make the minimize, Payments drop in Colin's Prime 10 of Week 11

Colin Cowherd reveals his Prime 10 groups heading into Week 11.

Raiders at Broncos (4:05 p.m. ET Sunday, FOX and FOX Sports activities App)

The Las Vegas Raiders are a flaming-hot dumpster hearth proper now, and an air tanker couldn’t drop sufficient water on this franchise to cease the flames.

After an embarrassing loss to the Colts on Sunday, Raiders quarterback Derek Carr held an emotional press convention the place he overtly questioned if all the group was dedicated. Shortly after that press convention, we obtained phrase that Vegas sat three of their defensive gamers for an "in-house matter that wasn’t soccer associated."

Lastly, head coach Josh McDaniels, whose group is 2-7, obtained the dreaded vote of confidence from Raiders proprietor Mark Davis. That’s the surest signal he’s not secure because the group's head coach.  

On the sphere, the Raiders don’t go defend or cease the run. The offense is 0-6 with the ball of their arms to finish the sport. They simply aren’t an excellent group.

Granted, the Broncos aren’t nice both, however they've an elite protection. The Las Vegas offense is nearly league common, so I count on the Broncos protection to close down the Raiders scoring. 

Whereas the Broncos offense is among the worst within the league, they're going through a Raiders protection that’s equally putrid. That is sufficient for me to again Denver below a subject aim right here.

PICK: Broncos (-2.5 at FOX Wager) to win by greater than 2.5 factors

Commanders hand Jalen Hurts, Eagles their first lack of the NFL season in Week 10

The Washington Commanders handed the Philadelphia Eagles their first lack of the season final night time; Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless react.

Eagles at Colts (1 p.m. ET Sunday, CBS)

The Philadelphia Eagles are not undefeated after dropping on Monday Evening Soccer to the Washington Commanders 32-21. It was the primary sport this season the place the Eagles have been outcoached and outmatched bodily on the line of scrimmage. I'll wager on that not occurring once more on Sunday, particularly within the first half.

The Eagles entered the sport Monday Evening 7-1 towards the unfold within the first half of video games with a median first-half level differential of 12. After popping out flat towards the Commanders, the Eagles will rebound towards the Colts on Sunday. They're a group constructed on the pleasure of their line items. They'll need to begin quick on Sunday to get again on the profitable monitor. Additionally, the Colts are usually not good, even with a win on Sunday towards the putrid Raiders. The Colts rank thirty first in offensive anticipated factors added. Their offensive line has been typically poor this season, and the Eagles ought to have the ability to benefit from that.

The Eagles teaching employees has outcoached most opponents, and after failing to do this towards their division rival Monday, it can return on Sunday in Indy. 

Give me Philadelphia to cowl within the first half.
