Week 11 NFL Bye Week Schedule
Atlanta Falcons
The Falcons have lost four of their last five games, including three consecutive defeats. Arthur Smith's team was beaten by Will Levis, Joshua Dobbs, and Kyler Murray over the last three weeks. Each of those quarterbacks was making their first appearance for their teams in those matchups. Needless to say, Falcons fans are getting restless and it's a great time for a week off.
There are no NFC South teams over .500, so the Falcons are still in the thick of the playoff race. After this bye, they'll face inter-division rivals New Orleans, Tampa Bay, and Carolina in three of their next four games.

Indianapolis Colts
Under a rookie head coach and without promising young quarterback Anthony Richardson, the Colts are 5-5 heading into their Week 11 bye. Last season, the Colts went 4-12-1, so there is reason for optimism surrounding the organization. Michael Pittman Jr. and Jonathan Taylor have played excellent football, and in a crowded AFC, Indianapolis could be in the playoff hunt down the stretch.
The Colts will square off with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 12 before a bout with the struggling Tennessee Titans in Week 13.

New England Patriots
Bill Belichick seems to be on the hot seat, as the Patriots are sitting at 2-8 through ten weeks. This is a shocking revelation after two decades of dominance with Tom Brady including six Super Bowl wins. Things are falling apart in New England, and there's little reason for optimism.
During the bye week, there's speculation that Bailey Zappe could be named the starting quarterback moving forward. Mac Jones has not been able to turn back into an efficient passer like he was during his 2021 rookie campaign, and someone has to take the blame. The Patriots battle the New York Giants next week, in what is sure to be a fantastic game -- right?

New Orleans Saints
The Saints head into the week off at 5-5, which is good for first in the laughable NFC South. New Orleans does not look like a team that can contend for a Super Bowl -- or win a playoff game -- but they have seven more games to try to get hot.
In Week 11, a matchup with the Atlanta Falcons is on tap. That contest is sure to have plenty of playoff ramifications.
