When is NFL Week 11 2026?

Week 11 runs Thursday 19 November through Monday 23 November 2026. It opens with Indianapolis at Houston on Prime Video, includes a Sunday night game from Mexico City, and closes with Cincinnati at Washington on Monday night.

Is there an NFL game in Mexico City in 2026?

Yes. Minnesota and San Francisco meet at Estadio Banorte in Mexico City in the Sunday night slot on 22 November. It is the ninth international game of the 2026 season and the first played in prime time rather than the 9:30 AM ET window.

Does altitude affect NFL games in Mexico City?

Mexico City sits at roughly 7,300 feet, higher than Denver. Thinner air affects player conditioning and also ball flight, with kicks and passes travelling further. Both teams face the same conditions since neither is acclimatised, but the effect on fatigue in the fourth quarter is a genuine factor.

What is the biggest spread in NFL Week 11 2026?

Buffalo at home to Miami and Kansas City at home to Arizona are both priced at 11.5. Buffalo's is a divisional game, a category that has historically produced closer results than the number suggests.

What is the lowest total in NFL Week 11 2026?

Two games sit at 41.5: the New York Jets at the Los Angeles Chargers and Las Vegas at Denver. The Chargers game is indoors at SoFi, which makes that number a comment on the offences rather than the conditions.

Mexico City, and the altitude nobody prices

Minnesota and San Francisco meet at Estadio Banorte in the Sunday night slot — the ninth international game of the season and the first in prime time rather than the 9:30 AM window.

The prime-time placement matters. The morning games have carried the disruption of an unfamiliar body clock; this one is played at a normal hour for both teams, removing one variable that has run through every other international fixture this season.

What replaces it is altitude. Mexico City sits at roughly 7,300 feet — higher than Denver, which is the only comparable environment in the league. Thin air affects two things: player conditioning, particularly in the fourth quarter, and ball flight, with kicks and passes carrying further than either side is used to.

Both teams face identical conditions, so altitude confers no advantage in itself. What it does is add fatigue and unfamiliarity to a game where neither side is acclimatised — and fatigue tends to show late.

Two 11.5s on one board

Buffalo lays 11.5 at home to Miami; Kansas City lays 11.5 at home to Arizona. It is the first time this season two double-digit spreads have appeared on the same slate.

Buffalo–Miami is divisional, which continues the season's oddest pattern: the biggest numbers keep appearing in the matchups where familiarity historically compresses margins.

And Arizona is on the wrong end of a large spread for the fifth time in six weeks — 13.5, 7.5, 10.5, 13.5 and now 11.5. The market's view has been consistent and unrelenting.

Six teams on bye

Thirteen games is the shortest slate of the season so far. From here the schedule fills back out toward the December run-in, but this week is thin.

The practical consequence is the same as always: a team returning from a bye has had extra recovery and preparation, and by late November the injury lists are long enough for that to matter more than it did in October.

The rest of the board

Cincinnati at Washington carries 52.5

The highest total on the board, on Monday night, outdoors in Landover in late November. That is the market backing two offences against the calendar — and the line is just 1.5, so it expects a close, high-scoring game.

Two games at 41.5

The Jets at the Chargers and Las Vegas at Denver share the low. The Chargers game is indoors at SoFi, which makes that number a verdict on the offences rather than the weather.

Pittsburgh at Philadelphia at 42.5

A low number for a game between two teams with genuine offensive personnel. Late November in Philadelphia is not December, but the direction is set.
