NFC North standings after Week 11

Packers, 8-2

The Packers still sit on top of the NFC North after having Week 10 off.

In Week 11, the Packers have quite the challenge, facing off against the 9-1 49ers in San Francisco. That game will be on Monday Night Football.

Vikings, 8-3

What. A. Comeback. The Vikings came back after being down by 20 points to the Broncos at half, winning 27-23.

The Vikings now get a bye week, and it really couldn’t come at a better time. The team is dealing with injuries to Adam Thielen, Linval Joseph, Harrison Smith, Anthony Harris and Josh Kline.

Minnesota will be rooting for San Francisco on Monday night hoping it opens a door to an NFC North championship for the Vikings.

Bears, 4-6

The Bears fell to the Rams in an ugly game on Sunday Night Football, 17-7.

The loss might have just removed Chicago from the playoff picture. Per FiveThirtyEight, the Bears have just a one percent to make the postseason.

Mitchell Trubisky was benched late in the game and it’s probably time for the Bears to think about getting a new quarterback for 2020.

The good news: Chicago hosts the New York Giants in Week 12.

Lions, 3-6-1

The Lions are without Matthew Stafford, and might be for the rest of the season. That’s not great news. Jeff Driskel held his own against the Cowboys, but the Lions still lost 35-27.

Things get easier in Week 12. The Lions travel to Washington DC to play the Redskins, but the 2019 season has turned into a pretty disappointing one for Detroit.
