NFL.com analysts have issued bold predictions for Week 11 of the 2025 season, highlighting potential upsets and standout individual performances. Key forecasts include Jameis Winston leading the Giants to a win over the Packers and Ashton Jeanty topping fantasy scoring for the Raiders. Other predictions feature big games from Caleb Williams and Trey McBride amid expected close contests.
As Week 11 of the 2025 NFL season approaches, NFL.com analysts offered a series of bold predictions covering team outcomes, player stats, and fantasy impacts.
In one forecast, Jameis Winston is expected to shine in his first start of the season for the New York Giants against the Green Bay Packers. Analysts predict Winston will throw for 300 passing yards and two touchdowns against the Packers' seventh-ranked scoring defense, which recently held the Eagles in check. This performance would secure the Giants' first win since Week 6, while the Packers suffer their third straight loss. The prediction draws from Winston's previous outing last year with the Browns against Denver, where he recorded 497 yards, four touchdowns, and three interceptions.
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is slated for a strong showing against the Minnesota Vikings, tossing four touchdowns with zero interceptions—his first such game since Week 3. Despite the Bears' recent success, winning six of their last seven, they are predicted to fall on the road in a revenge matchup from their Week 1 loss.
For fantasy players, Las Vegas Raiders rookie Ashton Jeanty is tipped to be the top overall scorer against the Dallas Cowboys. Jeanty has five games with four or more targets this season, and the Cowboys have struggled against pass-catching running backs.
Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride is forecasted to join elite company with 15-plus receptions in a game, a feat achieved only five times in NFL history, including by Kellen Winslow in 1984, George Kittle in 2020, and Jason Witten twice, with a record 18 in 2012. With Marvin Harrison Jr. sidelined, McBride becomes Jacoby Brissett's primary target and leads the Cardinals to an upset over the San Francisco 49ers, topping fantasy scoring.
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson is expected to exceed his career high of 150 receiving yards from last season's Week 11, exploiting the Giants' vulnerabilities to wide receivers and deep passes in man coverage.
Finally, the Los Angeles Rams defense is predicted to limit Seattle Seahawks' Jaxon Smith-Njigba, the NFL's receiving yards leader with 1,041 yards and six 100-yard games, to a season-low 75 yards.
