Stream Packers vs. 49ers Live Online.

Arguably the most exciting matchup of Week 12 and a potential NFC Championship game preview, the Green Bay Packers head West to take on the San Francisco 49ers Sunday evening in primetime. With both teams having a combined record of 17-3, this clash of two of the most successful teams in the NFL this season could go a long way toward deciding who will have home-field advantage in the NFC during the postseason.

Green Bay is coming off of its bye week, with its last game being a dramatic 24-16 victory in the snow over the Carolina Panthers. Aaron Jones was the difference maker in that game for the Packers, rushing for 93 yards and three touchdowns to help the Packers get a win in a game where Aaron Rodgers was largely held in check. Against the red-hot 49ers, the ability to find ways to score even if Rodgers isn’t at his best will be imperative, just like last week. 

San Francisco got a 36-26 win over the Arizona Cardinals its last time out. It was the 49ers second win over the Cardinals in their last three games. The Niners were down 16-0 in the game, but stormed back and got a game-winning score with under a minute to play. Jimmy Garropolo threw for 424 yards, four touchdowns and two interceptions in the win, but will need to avoid turnovers to take full advantage of Green Bay’s struggling secondary.

Stream Cowboys vs. Patriots Live Online.

The NFC East-leading Dallas Cowboys (6-4) hit the road to take on the AFC East-leading Patriots (9-1) in a showdown between two of the NFL’s best teams. These two teams have combined for 11 NFL Championships. The Cowboys lead the all-time series, 7-5 including victories in the last five meetings.

Cowboys vs. Patriots

When you mention Dallas, the first place you start is with its offense, which ranks first overall (444.6 YPG). The Cowboys beat the Lions last week 35-27 behind a strong showing from quarterback Dak Prescott, who threw for 444 yards and three touchdowns. Prescott leads the league with 3,221 total yards this season. Michael Gallup and Randall Cobb both totaled over 100 yards receiving, while All-Pro Amari Cooper was limited to just three balls for 38 yards. Cooper is fourth in receiving with 886 total yards. Running back Ezekiel Elliott has struggled in the last two games, with under 50 yards on the ground in both. Elliott and Cooper will need to step up against the Patriots defense. 

While the Cowboys offense gets a lot of the credit, their defense is ranked in the Top 10 in points allowed, total yards allowed and passing yards allowed. The unit had three sacks against the Lions and has excellent linebackers in Jaylon Smith and Leighton Vander Esch, who have 90 and 72 total tackles, respectively. Defensive end Robert Quinn has eight-and-a-half sacks this season. Can this group make Tom Brady and the offense uncomfortable? We know what Dallas’ offense can do, but its defense can be the difference maker in this game.

The New England Patriots are 9-1, but Tom Brady was frustrated after their 17-10 win against the Eagles last weekend. Why you ask? Brady threw for 216 yards and no touchdowns, the team had 72 total yards on the ground and both Julian Edelman and Ben Watson barely broke 50 yards. Plain and simple, the offense wasn’t very good and he realized that. Dallas can put points on the scoreboard and the New England offense will have to do its part to reach the end zone in this game as well. 

New England’s top-ranked defense vs. Dallas’ top-ranked offense is the main storyline in this one. The toughest contest of the year for the Patriots was its game against the Ravens and the team lost. Dallas hasn’t faced a slew of difficult teams either. This one will be a litmus test of where each is at. Last weekend against the Eagles, the New England defense carried the team. It recorded five sacks on quarterback Carson Wentz. Danny Shelton led the team with seven tackles and one interception. Should Prescott look to air it out to Amari Cooper and company, he better be cautious. The Patriots boast the second-best passing defense (152.6 YPG) and a top-notch secondary that includes Devin McCourty, who is tied for the league lead with five interceptions this season.

The Washington Redskins and Detroit Lions have experienced quarterbacks on their roster, but have had to change their plans to let young signal-callers take the reigns. When they square-off at FedEx Field, the teams will have their eyes on their inexperienced quarterbacks.

Lions quarterback Jeff Driskel, tasked with filling in for an injured for Matthew Stafford, threw for 209 yards and two touchdowns in a 35-27 loss at home to the Dallas Cowboys. With Stafford ruled out for this game as well, Driskel will have another chance to impress. Detroit’s defense will need to step up in this contest after giving up 509 yards to the Cowboys last week. With Washington’s less potent offense, this is an opportunity for the Lions to get back on track offensively. 

Washington also lost its last outing, dropping a game at home against the New York Jets by a score of 34-17. The team was held to just 54 yards rushing, which forced the team to put the ball in the air more than it wanted with rookie quarterback Dwayne Haskins under center. Haskins completed 19 of his 35 pass attempts for 214 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception. With Detroit overly capable of moving the ball through the air and on the ground, the Washington offense may need to produce at a high level to keep pace.

How to Watch Giants vs. Bears, NFL Week 12 Live Stream, Schedule, TV Channel, Start Time

Stream Giants vs. Bears Live Online.

The New York Giants (2-8) look to steal a win from the Bears (4-6) Sunday afternoon at Soldier Field. The Giants have won the last two games, both at MetLife Stadium, and four of the last five, including a 30-27 overtime thriller last season.

A bye week may be exactly what the Giants needed as they prepare for the Chicago Bears this weekend. New York has lost six in a row, including a 34-27 loss at the hands of the Jets. Daniel Jones was impressive with 308 yards passing and four touchdowns. The team’s first round pick definitely has the talent but needs more help from his supporting cast, including running back Saquon Barkley. Barkley had 13 carries and one yard against the Jets. In his first two games, he had over 200 yards rushing and has 175 in the five games since. However, he’s been plagued with a severe sprained ankle. Darius Slayton and Golden Tate combined for 216 yards and two scores last game and will need to step up against the Bears.

Chicago could use a win as well to build momentum for the rest of the season. After a solid start to the year, the Bears have lost five of their last six, including a 17-7 road loss against the Rams. Mitch Trubisky completed 24 of 43 passes for 190 yards, one touchdown, one interception and was sacked three times. Trubisky left late in the game with a hip injury and Chase Daniel took over. Daniel was the quarterback the last time these two teams met while Trubisky missed the game due to a shoulder injury. The Bears running game has also been inconsistent. Tarik Cohen and David Montgomery were both limited to under 40 yards, while Taylor Gabriel led the team with seven catches for 57 yards. Lack of offensive production has been a theme for the Bears during this stretch and will need to improve if they want to get back over the .500 mark.

The Bears’ defense has been a staple of this franchise for many years. This year’s group is fourth in points allowed (17.4) and eighth in total yards allowed (322.9). Opponents are doubling up on Khalil Mack, and rightfully so. Roquan Smith stepped up last week with 11 tackles and one interception. If Mack, Smith and company can disrupt Jones’ rhythm, it will be a long day for the Giants.

How to Watch Buccaneers vs. Falcons, NFL Week 12 Live Stream, Schedule, TV Channel, Start Time

Stream Buccaneers vs. Falcons Live Online.

NFC South divisional rivals Tampa Bay and Atlanta face-off for the first of two meetings this season on Sunday afternoon. Both teams have identical 3-7 records. The Falcons lead the all-time series 27-24 and have won the last five games, including a 34-32 victory on the road last year. The last time the Bucs defeated the Falcons in Atlanta was on Sept. 11, 2016.

The Buccaneers have one of the best offenses in the league, but turnovers once again cost Tampa Bay in a 34-17 home loss to NFC South opponent New Orleans. Jameis Winston completed 30 of 51 passes for 313 yards and two touchdowns, but also four interceptions. Winston is third in the NFL with 3,078 yards, but he also leads the league with 18 interceptions this season. Those turnovers helped the Saints jump out to a 20-0 lead early. The running game was non-existent with just eight plays. If the Bucs can establish the run game, they can open up the play-action pass where Winston can be a little more mobile and throw to arguably the best 1-2 wide receiver combination in Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. Evans and Godwin are ranked second and third in receiving with 993 and 887 yards, respectively.

Tampa’s defensive front is one of the best in the league and it is ranked second when it comes to stopping the run. Last weekend they were limited to just one sack. Drew Brees threw for 228 yards and three touchdowns, including numerous balls to Michael Thomas. It doesn’t get any easier with a much improved Falcons offense led by quarterback Matt Ryan and speedy wide receivers Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley. Tampa Bay is last in points allowed (31.3) and second to last in pass yards allowed (290.9). 

After starting 1-7, the Falcons have won their last two games and it couldn’t have come at a better time. They beat NFC South opponents, New Orleans and Carolina, holding them to just 12 combined points. Against the Panthers, Matt Ryan threw for 311 yards and one touchdown for the third best passing attack in the league with an average of 300.3 YPG. While the Bucs have a solid 1-2 punch, the Falcons do as well with Jones and Ridley. Last weekend, Ridley led the team with eight catches for 141 yards and one touchdown, while Jones hauled in six balls for 91 yards. Jones is ranked fifth in the league with 992 yards and is certain to break the 1,000 mark on Sunday.

Offensive coordinator Dierk Koetter and Raheem Morris, the Falcons assistant head coach and secondary coach, both spent time as the head coach of the Buccaneers. We’ll see how that helps on Sunday. One area that hasn’t needed a ton of help has been the defense. The unit has held the Saints and Panthers in back-to-back weeks to no offensive touchdowns and combined for 11 sacks.  Last weekend, the defense picked off Kyle Allen four times led by De’Vondre Campbell, who had 12 tackles and one interception. If the Falcons defense can force Jameis Winston out of his rhythm and create turnovers, this game will play right into Atlanta’s hands.

The Saints (8-2) and Panthers (5-5) clash in an NFC South showdown between the top two teams in the division. Carolina leads the all-time series 25-24, including a 33-14 win in New Orleans last year. Prior to that New Orleans had won four in a row.

The Saints and Panthers both fell victim to the Atlanta Falcons in recent weeks. Kyle Allen, who has taken over nicely for the injured Cam Newton, had one of his worst games all season. Allen threw for 325 yards, no touchdowns and tossed four interceptions. However, Carolina does boast the best running back in the league in Christian McCaffrey. McCaffrey can do it all as evident by his 70 yards on the ground and 121 yards and one touchdown receiving. McCaffrey has accounted for nearly half of the team’s offensive production this season. He’s a game-changer, but he can’t always do everything on his own and will need help from his teammates against a Saints offense that can put up their fair share of points.

Defensively, New Orleans will need to stop the pass. Matt Ryan threw for 311 yards and one touchdown last weekend and had help from the speedsters Calvin Ridley and Julio Jones, who totaled 143 yards and 91 yards, respectively. Brees can sling the ball and has one of the best wide receivers in the league in Michael Thomas as his go-to target. The Panthers have been much better against the pass (14th) than the rush (27th) this season.

Resilient. That was the word running back Alvin Kamara used to describe the Saints. That was on display against the Buccaneers one week after losing 26-9 vs. Falcons in a divisional contest. Drew Brees was nearly flawless in the team’s 34-17 win over Tampa Bay with 228 yards passing and three touchdowns. Alvin Kamara had 13 carries for 75 yards, while Michael Thomas did what he does best in the receiving game with eight catches for 114 yards and one touchdown. Thomas leads the NFL with 1,141 yards and is six catches shy of 100 on the season. Assuming he achieves that feat, it will mark the third straight year he’s done it, which has only been done by eight players in NFL history.

The story of the game last weekend wasn’t Thomas, his record or the offense, but rather the defense. The Saints defense was in the face of quarterback Jameis Winston all game long. New Orleans created four turnovers and sacked Winston two times. Demario Davis picked up six tackles and an interception, while Cam Jordan added three tackles and one-and-a-half sacks. The Saints defense is ranked third in rushing yards allowed (85.3 YPG) and will face a tough test in McCaffrey.

Oakland won their third game in a row after a 17-10 defeat of the winless Bengals at home. Derek Carr was nearly perfect throwing the ball. He completed 25 of 29 passes for 292 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Three wide receivers had over 60 yards, including Tyrell Williams, who led the team with four catches and 82 yards. Rookie Josh Jacobs continued to dazzle on the ground with his fourth 100+ yard game of the season to bring his total to 923 yards, fourth best in the NFL.

The defense wasn’t exactly tested against the Bengals and if you asked most people three weeks ago, they wouldn’t be too concerned about the Jets. However, this is an offense that has seen a rejuvenated Sam Darnold and the team has put up 34 points in back-to-back games. Oakland’s defense ranks 27th in passing yards allowed, so don’t expect it to be a walk in the park for the team on Sunday.

It wasn’t long ago the Jets were mentioned in the same sentence as the Bengals, Dolphins, Redskins, and Giants. However, they have won their last two games, including a 34-17 win over Washington on the road. Yes, their prior win before that was against the Giants, but the offense is finally scoring points and that’s always a good sign. Sam Darnold threw for 293 yards, four touchdowns, and one interception. Le’Veon Bell and Bilal Powell combined for 101 yards and another score. Ryan Griffin led the team with 109 yards receiving and a touchdown.

While the Jets offense is working its way up from the bottom of the NFL rankings, the defense continues to be a bright spot. The unit is ranked 13th in yards allowed (332.4) and first in rush defense (79.1). Against Washington, they racked up six sacks and recorded one interception. James Burgess notched nine tackles and half of a sack, while Jamal Adams picked up three sacks to go with his four tackles in the game. If this group can limit Josh Jacobs and the run game, it has a chance to pull out the win.

Pittsburgh had its four-game win streak snapped with a 21-7 loss vs. Browns and those frustrations broke out at the end of the game. Mason Rudolph completed 23 of 44 passes for 221 yards, one touchdown, and four costly interceptions. Rudolph was also sacked four times. The running game struggled to move the ball with 16 carries for 58 yards. With that lackluster offensive production, it is going to be difficult to win football games. It will not get easier for the Steelers with wide receivers JuJu Smith-Schuster and Diontae Johnson sidelined due to concussion protocol and James Conner day-to-day with a shoulder injury.

The Steelers defense held the Browns to under 300 yards of total offense, but with the turnovers on offense and Cleveland dominating the time of possession, they had their hands full. This unit will need to step up even more with the injuries on offense. T.J. Watt had four tackles and one sack last weekend and has 10.5 sacks on the year, third best in the NFL. Safety Minkah Fitzpatrick has been worth the deal Pittsburgh made for him early in the season. Fitzpatrick is tied for the league lead in interceptions with five.

Cincinnati is a league worst 0-10 and searching for its first win of the season. Last weekend the Bengals lost 17-10 against the Raiders. Ryan Finley, who replaced Andy Dalton, will remain the starter despite completing a mere 13 of 31 passes for 115 yards and one interception. Joe Mixon racked up 86 yards on the ground and his first rushing touchdown of the season. Auden Tate led all Bengals receivers with four catches and a total of 56 yards. The offense ranks 30th with an average of 14.7 points per game and has struggled to find the end zone all season.  

A weakened Steelers offense will help on Sunday, but the reality is the Bengals are dead last in yards allowed (425.1) and rushing yards allowed (167.0). Last weekend, the Raiders threw for nearly 300 yards and Josh Jacobs totaled 112 yards on the ground. The defense did force three sacks and one interception and will need to pressure Mason Rudolph on Sunday to try to create turnovers.

Denver’s record may be a disappointing 3-7, but the team saw glimpses of promise in last weekend’s 27-23 loss to Minnesota on the road. Brandon Allen, making his second career start due to an injury to Joe Flacco, threw for 240 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Running back Phillip Lindsay carried the ball for 67 yards and wide receiver Courtland Sutton hauled in five passes for 113 yards. It was the second time this season Sutton eclipsed the 100-yard mark. The Broncos had a 20 point lead before the Vikings came storming back. Denver took three shots at the end zone with the game nearing the end after converting three fourth downs on the drive, but couldn’t get the job done.

The Broncos defense was lights out in the first half but surrendered touchdowns on the Vikings four possessions following the half. The unit had five sacks and held Dalvin Cook to just 26 yards and one touchdown. Kirk Cousins was the difference maker though. He completed 29 of 35 passes for 319 yards and three touchdowns. The pass defense for the Broncos has been one of their stronger suits, as they were holding teams to an average of 210.3 YPG. Shelby Harris racked up three sacks in addition to five tackles in the game.

While the Broncos look to bounce back from a tough loss, the Bills are coming off an easy victory over the Miami Dolphins. Buffalo beat Miami, 37-20, in South Florida behind a four touchdown performance from quarterback Josh Allen. Allen totaled 256 yards in the air and three touchdowns. As a team, the Bills tallied 168 yards rushing and John Brown had nine receptions for a season-high 137 yards and two touchdowns.

The Bills defense is ranked third in points allowed, yards allowed and passing yards allowed. Against Miami, they sacked quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick seven times and held the Dolphins running game to 23 yards. Tremaine Edwards led the team with 12 tackles and half of a sack, while Matt Milano chipped in seven tackles and half of a sack.
