The Shenoa Report Week 13 '25 #theshenoareport

The Shenoa Report
November 30, 2025
Regular Season Week 13



Happy week 13. Historically lucky for me. This year, we’ll see. 

Happy Thanksgiving, a few days late. I hope it was a good one! I had almost finished this report Thursday morning but I still had dinner rolls to make and those take priority in our family. Just ask, I wouldn’t have been allowed at the family thanksgiving without the dinner rolls. So bread won out on Thursday. Then,  I wasn’t excited to talk about the Eagles game Friday so I procrastinated posting this report until now. 

In fantasy football land I am fighting to not get eliminated in one league and in the other I’m fighting for playoff positioning. I am playing the number one seed in each league. Cool. To make things fun on the home front I am playing the love of my life in hopes of a playoff spot. It’s not going well, I’ll most likely be eliminated after the one o’clock games. I bounced back somewhat in fantasy, winning in one league, losing in the other. Current ranking (3rd) CMC Ya Next Season 7-5, (6th) Cursed 5-7.

Also, I went 10-4 in picks. 



Let’s jump into the recap! 


Bills @ Texans 19-23

If you are a Bills fan, this wasn’t a fun game to watch. Josh Allen was sacked, a lot. The Bills did not look good, but they made the Texans look really good. 

Fun fact (or not so fun fact): Josh Allen’s eight sacks in this game marked a career high for him. 



Colts @ Chiefs 20-23 OT

The Chiefs rallied from an 11 point fourth quarter deficit to beat the Colts in overtime. Patrick Mahomes threw for a season high 352 yards, connecting often with Rashee Rice, while the Colts offense stalled on offense late in the game. The Colts led most of the game and the Chiefs didn’t take their first lead until the game winning field goal in OT.

Fun fact: This was the Chiefs first one score victory of the 2025 season, breaking a streak of close losses.


Steelers @ Bears 28-31

Caleb Williams had three touchdown passes and the Bears defense forced two turnovers that set up 14 points, while Mason Rudolph, filling in for the injured Aaron Rodgers, kept Pittsburgh close with a strong first half. Chicago scored 17 unanswered points after trailing 21–14, then held off a late Steelers rally to secure their fourth straight win.

Fun fact: With this victory, the Bears improved to 8–3, marking their best record through 11 games since 2018.


Patriots @ Bengals 26-20

The Patriots rallied from a 10 point deficit to beat the Bengals, extending their winning streak to nine games. Drake Maye threw for 294 yards and a touchdown, while cornerback Marcus Jones' pick-six in the second quarter shifted momentum. Patriots kicker Andy Borregales was perfect on four field goals, including a clutch 52 yarder in the final two minutes to seal the win.

Fun fact: With this victory, the Patriots became the first NFL team to reach 10 wins in 2025, improving to 6–0 on the road.


Jets @ Ravens 10-23

The Ravens stomped the Jets, powered by two third-quarter rushing touchdowns from Derrick Henry. Lamar Jackson threw for 153 yards while the Ravens defense forced two turnovers and held the Jets to just 287 total yards. John Metchie III scored the Jets lone touchdown in the second quarter, but Baltimore’s 17 unanswered points after halftime sealed their fifth straight win.

Fun fact: The Ravens became the first team in NFL history to rebound from a 1–5 start with a five game winning streak.


Seahawks @ Titans 30-24

Sam Darnold threw for 244 yards and two touchdowns and Jaxon Smith-Njigba had eight catches for 167 yards, including a 63-yard score that swung momentum in Seattle’s favor. The Titans rallied late with two touchdowns, but the Seahawks held on to improve to 8–3 and strengthen their NFC playoff position.

Fun fact: Jaxon Smith-Njigba broke the Seahawks single-season receiving yards record (1,313), surpassing DK Metcalf’s mark set in 2020.


Vikings @ Packers 6-23

Filling in for the injured Josh Jacobs, Emanuel Wilson had 107 rushing yards and two touchdowns in his first NFL start. The Packers defense dominated, sacking  QB J.J. McCarthy five times and forcing three turnovers, while Minnesota managed only two long field goals. The Vikings generated just four net yards in the second half.

Fun fact: Emanuel Wilson became the first undrafted Division II rookie running back to rush for 100+ yards in his first NFL start.


NY Giants @ Lions 27-34 OT

Guys. It’s a joke amongst Giants fans. “How will we lose this game?”, is the question we ask every game. So, how did we lose this one? I could just copy and paste the reason  from last week, or the week before, or the week before, or the week, because it’s the same reason every week. Defensive Coordinator, Shane Bowen.  We led the ENTIRE GAME. The defense played soft in the 4th quarter allowing the Lions to come back to tie the game sending it to overtime.  Then, ON THE FIRST PLAY OF OVERTIME Jahmyr Gibbs took the rock 69 yards to the endzone. The Giants had a chance, but Jameis Winston’s magic ran out and we lost another heart breaker. 

Fun fact: Gibbs’ 264 scrimmage yards were the most by a Lions player in a single game since Barry Sanders in 1997.


Jaguars @ Cardinals 27-24 OT

This game also went into overtime. Trevor Lawrence threw three touchdown passes despite committing four turnovers. The Cardinals tied the game in the final seconds of regulation, but Jacksonville’s resilience carried them to their seventh win of the season.

Fun fact: This was the Jaguars second overtime victory in four weeks, highlighting their knack for late-game drama.


Browns @ Raiders 24-10

Shedeur Sanders got a W in his first NFL start. Sanders threw for 209 yards including a 66 yard touchdown to Dylan Sampson, while Myles Garrett anchored the defense with three of the team’s 10 sacks. The Raiders struggled offensively, converting just 4 of 17 third downs and committing 13 penalties for 109 yards.

Fun fact: Sanders snapped a historic streak — he became the first Browns quarterback since 1995 to win his NFL debut, ending a run of 17 straight Cleveland QBs who lost their first career start.


Falcons @ Saints 24-10

The Falcons snapped a five game losing streak with this win over the Saints. Kirk Cousins threw for 199 yards and two touchdowns, including a 49 yard pass to Darnell Mooney in the fourth quarter. The Falcons defense held the Saints to just three points after halftime, while New Orleans missed two field goals and failed on multiple fourth down attempts.

Fun fact: This was the Falcons first victory inside the Caesars Superdome since 2021, ending a four-year drought.

 

Eagles @ Cowboys 21-24

The Cowboys stunned the Eagles (and everyone else)  after rallying from a 21 point first half deficit. Dak Prescott threw for 354 yards, two touchdowns, and ran for the tying score before Brandon Aubrey’s 42 yard field goal as time expired. The Cowboys defense tightened in the second half, holding the Eagles scoreless and securing Dallas’ biggest comeback in franchise history.

Fun fact: Prescott broke Tony Romo’s franchise record for career passing yards during the game, finishing with 34,378.


Buccaneers @ Rams 7-34

The Rams dominated the Bucs  jumping out to a 21–0 lead in the first half. Matthew Stafford threw three touchdown passes, including two to Davante Adams, while Cobie Durant added a 50-yard interception return for a score. Baker Mayfield left the game with a shoulder injury, and the Buccaneers never recovered as the Rams extended their winning streak to six games.

Fun fact: Harrison Mevis, the Rams rookie kicker, made his first career NFL field goal in the game.


Panthers @ 49ers 9-20

Christian McCaffrey had 142 scrimmage yards and a touchdown against his former team. Despite Brock Purdy throwing three interceptions in the first half, the 49ers defense held firm and limited Carolina to just 230 total yards. Bryce Young managed one touchdown pass, but the Panthers failed to capitalize on turnovers.

Fun fact: This was McCaffrey’s first game against the Panthers since being traded in 2022, and he led all players in yards from scrimmage.




WEEK 13


Thanksgiving Day - Thursday, November 28th


Packers (7-3-1) @ Lions (7-4) (1pm FOX)

The Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions have played each other 23 times on Thanksgiving Day, the most frequent matchup in NFL Thanksgiving history. The Detroit Lions have played on Thanksgiving 85 times so far, the most in Thanksgiving history. Their record on this day is 37-46-2. The Packers have played 39 times and their record on this day is 17-20-2. The Packers played annually from 1920-38 on Thanksgiving but haven’t played on this day since 2021. I’m rooting for and picking the Lions to win this game. I also picked them last year as they were having an equally incredible year. They lost. I hope they win this year. -Spoiler: They lost this year too. 



Chiefs (6-5) @ Cowboys (5-5-1) (4:30pm CBS)

The Cowboys have played on Thanksgiving 58 times so far, the second most in Thanksgiving history. Their record on this day is 35-22-1. The Kansas City Chiefs have played 11 times on Thanksgiving Day, with an all-time record of 5 wins and 6 losses. I would have picked the Chiefs to win and I would have been wrong. 



Bengals (3-8) @ Ravens (6-5) (8:20pm NBC)

The Bengals had only played once on Thanksgiving before this game and they lost that game. The Ravens had only played twice before on Thanksgiving and they won both. I would have picked the Ravens to win this game and I would have been wrong. 



Friday, November 28th


Bears (8-3) @ Eagles (8-3) (3pm PRIME VIDEO)

Also, I would have picked the Eagles to win this game and I would have been wrong again, but super ok with it. Fun fact: I wore my Bears sweatshirt in solidarity for this game. I think it worked. 


Sunday, November 30th


49ers (8-4) @ Browns (3-8) (1pm CBS)

The weather may be a factor in this game. High winds, cold, and some possible rain and snow. It should be a good game for CMC and that’s really all I need. I’m picking the 49ers to win this game. 


Jaguars (7-4) @ Titans (1-10) (1pm CBS)

If Trevor Lawrence can keep the ball in his own players hands and stop throwing interceptions the Jags will win this game, and that’s my pick. The Jags get the W. 


Texans (6-5) @ Colts (8-3) (1pm CBS)

The Colts haven’t lost at home yet this season. Something tells me today is the day that changes. Even though the Colts are favorites to win this game I am picking the Texans for the upset. 


Saints (2-9) @ Dolphins (4-7) (1pm FOX)

I’m picking the Dolphins to win this game. The Saints continue to crumble and the Dolphins are on a win streak, dare I say. 


Falcons (4-7) @ Jets (2-9) (1pm FOX)

With two terrible teams it’s anyone’s game. I’m picking the Falcons to win this one.  


Rams (9-2) @ Panthers (6-6) (1pm FOX)

I’m pretty sure this is going to be an ugly game for the Panthers. I’m picking the Rams to win this game and I’m hoping for multiple touchdowns for Rams WR Adams and RB  Williams. 


Cardinals (3-8) @ Buccaneers  (6-5) (1pm CBS)

Wait for it, the Bucs have some injuries. This is not new. Baker Mayfield is going to play through a shoulder injury. I’m not sure he’s throwing to anymore. I’m still picking the Bucs to win this game. 


Vikings (4-7) @  Seahawks (8-3) (4:05pm FOX)

I’m picking the Seahawks to win this game. It’s hard to pick against JSN. 


Raiders (2-9)  @ Chargers (7-4) (4:25pm CBS)

I need the Chargers to have a major bounce back game. I need all the points from Justin Herbert, Keenan Allen, and Oronde Gadsden. Fingers crossed. I’m picking the Chargers to win this game. 


Bills  (7-4) @ Steelers (6-5) (4:25pm CBS)

I am rooting for and picking the Bills to win this game. Buffalo, you’ve got to get your stuff together. GO BILLS! 


Broncos (9-2) @ Commanders (3-8)  (8:20pm NBC/Peacock)

Yeah, I’m going to have to pick the Broncos to win this game. 


Monday, December 1st


NY Giants (2-10) @ Patriots (10-2) (8:15pm ESPN)

The Giants FINALLY fired Shane Bowen so I’m hopeful the defense will look better. I’ll probably just watch one of the Giants - Patriots Super Bowls because I know I’ll like the outcome there. I’m picking the Patriots to win this game. Go G-Men. 



BYES: NONE


GO G-MEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the edit Eric!

The Shenoa Report Week 12 '25 #theshenoareport

The Shenoa Report
November 20, 2025
Regular Season Week 12


Have you ever had one of those weeks that blindsided you. I’ve had one of those weeks. What day is it? No worries, I’m ok. We’re ok. I just didn’t have the time I usually do to put into this report, so it’ll be on the brief side. 

I bounced back somewhat in fantasy, winning in one league, losing in the other. Current ranking (3rd) CMC Ya Next Season 7-4, (7th) Cursed 4-7.

Also, I went 13-2 in picks. 


Let’s jump into the recap! 


Jets @ Patriots 14-27 (8:20pm NBC)

The Jets opened the game with a long, early touchdown drive, but the Patriots offense, led by Drake Maye and RB TreVeyon Henderson, quickly took control and pulled away.

Fun Fact: Patriots rookie running back TreVeyon Henderson scored three touchdowns (two rushing, one receiving), joining Rob Gronkowski as the only two rookies in Patriots franchise history to achieve this in a single game.

Commanders @ Dolphins 13-16 OT

The Dolphins defeated the Commanders in overtime in the NFL's first ever regular season game played in Spain. The defensive-minded game saw Washington force multiple goal-line stops, but Miami cornerback Jack Jones sealed the victory with an interception on the very first play of overtime, setting up the game-winning field goal.

Fun Fact: This game was played at Estadio Santiago Bernabéu in Madrid, Spain, making it the first time an NFL regular-season game was ever held in that country.

Bengals @ Steelers 12-34

Things didn’t really get exciting until the second half. The game shifted dramatically in the third quarter when Steelers safety Kyle Dugger intercepted a Joe Flacco pass and returned it 73 yards for a touchdown. After starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers left the game with a wrist injury, backup Mason Rudolph efficiently managed the offense to secure the divisional win.

Fun Fact: The Steelers defense scored two touchdowns, a pick-six by Kyle Dugger and a  fumble recovery by James Pierre, making it the first time the team had multiple defensive touchdowns in a game since 2018.

Chargers @ Jaguars 6-35

The Jaguars dominated the Chargers ending LA's three-game winning streak. The Jaguars success was built on a punishing run game that put up 192 yards and four touchdowns, completely controlling the clock and tempo. The lopsided loss was so decisive that the Chargers pulled quarterback Justin Herbert from the game in the fourth quarter.

Fun Fact: The Jaguars defense was exceptional, allowing the Chargers a total of only 42 rushing yards, marking the second time this season they held an opponent under 50 yards rushing.

Buccaneers @ Bills 32-44

The Bills defeated the Buccaneers in a wild, back and worth game that featured an incredible nine lead changes. Bills QB Josh Allen accounted for all six of Buffalo's touchdowns (three passing, three rushing) to overcome a strong 202 yard rushing effort by the Buccaneers. Tampa Bay managed to turn three Bills turnovers into only three points, allowing Buffalo to pull away in the fourth quarter for the decisive home victory.

Fun Fact: Josh Allen's performance made him the first player in NFL history to have two separate games with at least three passing touchdowns and three rushing touchdowns.

Bears @ Vikings 19-17

The Bears blew a 16-3 fourth-quarter lead, allowing the Vikings to score two late touchdowns to take a one-point lead with 50 seconds left. A 56 yard kickoff return by Devin Duvernay immediately set up the game-winning drive for kicker Cairo Santos.

Fun Fact: The Chicago Bears defense forced two interceptions on Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy, making them the first NFL team since the 2011 Green Bay Packers to have three different players with at least four interceptions in their first 10 games of a season.

Texans @ Titans 16-13

Filling in for the injured C.J. Stroud, QB Davis Mills engineered a crucial final drive, capped off by Matthew Wright's 35 yard field goal as time expired. Houston's defense was stout, holding the Titans to only 229 total yards, though they did allow a late 95 yard touchdown drive that briefly tied the game.

Fun Fact: This victory marked the Texans fifth consecutive win in Nashville against the Titans, sweeping the season series for the 2025 season.

Panthers @ Falcons 30-27 OT

The Panthers overcame a 21-7 deficit to defeat the Falcons in a thrilling overtime divisional matchup. Panthers QB Bryce Young put on a phenomenal performance, orchestrating the furious rally and setting up the game winning field goal in OT. The loss was especially tough for the Falcons, who saw quarterback Michael Penix Jr. leave the game with a knee injury in the third quarter.

Fun Fact: Bryce Young set a Panthers franchise record for most passing yards in a single game with 448 yards in this dramatic victory over their NFC South rivals.

Packers @ NY Giants 27-20

I don’t have anything to say about the Giants. The Packers snapped a two game losing streak despite injuries to quarterback Jordan Love and running back Josh Jacobs. Love returned from a shoulder injury to throw the go ahead touchdown pass to Christian Watson with four minutes left in the fourth quarter. The victory was secured by safety Evan Williams, who intercepted a pass in the end zone with 36 seconds remaining to stop the Giants final drive.

Fun Fact: Despite winning the game, the Packers had a massive 11:52 time of possession deficit (24:04 to the Giants 35:56), the largest gap they'd overcome all season.

Seahawks @ Rams 19-21

The Rams defense was the decisive factor, intercepting Sam Darnold four times, with two picks leading directly to Rams touchdowns. Although Seattle mounted a late comeback, kicker Jason Myers missed a 61 yard field goal attempt as time expired, sealing the victory for Los Angeles.

Fun Fact: The Rams victory was only the second win of the Sean McVay era where Los Angeles had less than 23 minutes of possession time, showcasing the sheer impact of their four takeaways.

49ers @ Cardinals 41-22

Brock Purdy threw three touchdown passes, while running back Christian McCaffrey scored three total touchdowns (two rushing, one receiving). The Cardinals were severely hampered by three turnovers and a staggering 17 penalties for 130 yards, allowing the 49ers to maintain control throughout the game.

Fun Fact: 49ers tight end George Kittle's two touchdown receptions gave him 50 career receiving touchdowns, making him and Brock Purdy the 49ers franchise leaders for most quarterback-to-tight end touchdowns.

 Ravens @ Browns 23-16

Trailing most of the game, Baltimore took the lead late in the fourth quarter when tight end Mark Andrews executed a trick play, running 35 yards for a go ahead rushing touchdown. Despite the Browns defense recording three turnovers and star Myles Garrett racking up four sacks, the Ravens run game and a late defensive stand sealed the victory.

Fun Fact: Mark Andrews' game-winning play, which was a fake "tush push" where he lined up under center and ran the ball, was the first rushing touchdown of his entire NFL career.

Chiefs @ Broncos 19-22

The Broncos won another one with a field goal as time expired. Kansas City's struggles continued, as they were undone by an inability to finish drives, including a crucial blocked extra point and two late three-and-outs.

Fun Fact: Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce broke the franchise record for career total touchdowns with his 84th score, surpassing former Chiefs running back Priest Holmes.

Lions @ Eagles 9-16

The Eagles defense held the Lions to their lowest point total of the season and made five crucial stops on fourth down, repeatedly turning back scoring threats. Offensively, Jalen Hurts scored the Eagles only touchdown via the tush push, which proved to be the difference in the low-scoring outing. 

Fun Fact: The Eagles defense held the Lions, who entered the game averaging 31.4 points per game, to just nine points; this marked the first time all season that Detroit failed to convert a single fourth-down attempt (going 0-for-5).

Cowboys @ Raiders 33-16

Dak Prescott had four touchdown passes and the Cowboys defense shut down the Raiders offense, holding them to just 27 rushing yards and forcing a safety.

Fun Fact: Dak Prescott's four-touchdown performance was his 41st career game with at least three passing touchdowns, breaking a tie with Tony Romo for the most in Cowboys franchise history.


WEEK 12


Thursday, November 20th 


Bills (7-3) @ Texans (5-5) (8:15pm PRIME VIDEO)

I’ll be rooting for and picking the Bills to win this game. Let’s go Buffalo! 


Sunday, November 23rd


Colts (8-2) @ Chiefs  (5-5) (1pm CBS)

The Chiefs have only lost one home game this season. It’s hard to pick against them at home. Therefore, I guess I’m picking the Chiefs to win this game. 

Steelers (6-4) @ Bears (7-3) (1pm CBS) 

The Bears have done really well as of late and the Steelers may be without Aaron Rodgers, who has a broken wrist on his non throwing arm. Regardless, I’m picking the Bears to win this game. 

Patriots (9-2) @ Bengals (3-7) (1pm CBS)

The only hope the Bengals had of winning this game was with Ja’mar Chase and he’s on a one game suspension for spitting on another player. I’m picking the Patriots to win this game. 

Jets (2-8) @ Ravens (5-5)  (1pm CBS)

It doesn’t matter who is quarterbacking the Jets, I’m picking the Ravens to win this game. 

Seahawks (7-3) @ Titans (1-9) (1pm FOX)

I’m going to pick the Seahawks to win this game. 

Vikings (4-6) @ Packers (6-3-1) (1pm FOX)

I think that the Packers are going to win again this week and that’s who I’m picking. 

NY Giants (2-9) @ Lions (6-4)  (1pm FOX)

You know the story. I’ll be rooting for the Giants, because I’m a glutton for punishment, but I’m picking the Lions to win this game. Go G-Men!

Jaguars (6-4) @ Cardinals (3-7)  (4:05pm CBS)

I’m picking the Jags to win this game. They are just the better team. 

Browns (2-8) @ Raiders (2-8) (4:05pm CBS)

Both teams are a complete mess. I’m going to pick the Raiders to win but only because they are the home team. 

Falcons (3-7) @ Saints (2-8) (4:25pm FOX)

I’m going with home field advantage again and picking the Saints to win this game. 

Eagles (8-2) @ Cowboys (4-5-1) (4:25pm FOX)

I’m hoping this game ends in a tie. But, I’m picking the Eagles to win this game. 

Buccaneers (6-4) @ Rams (8-2) (8:20pm NBC)

I’m picking the Rams to win this game, I just need them to not hurt any Bucs players. They are so beat up already! 


Monday, November 24th


Panthers (6-5) @ 49ers (7-4) (8:15pm ABC, ESPN)

CMC gets to play his old team. I’m picking the 49ers to win this game. 


BYE WEEK: Chargers, Commanders, Broncos, Dolphins


GO G-MEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the edit Eric!

The Shenoa Report Week 11 '25 #theshenoareport

The Shenoa Report
November 13, 2025
Regular Season Week 11


THE GIANTS FIRED BRIAN DABOLL!!!!!!!! That is all.

I bounced back somewhat in fantasy, winning in one league losing in the other. Current ranking (1st) CMC Ya Next Season 7-3, (8th) Cursed 3-7.

Also, I went 8-6 in picks. 

Let’s jump into the recap! 


Raiders @ Broncos 7-10

Guys, this game was pretty boring. The Raiders actually looked like they might upset the Broncos, but they are the Raiders so, the Broncos won. 

Fun fact: The game featured 15 punts and 13 three-and-outs, making it one of the most punt-heavy primetime matchups in recent NFL history. See! Boring!

Falcons @ Colts 25-31 OT

If you have Jonathan Taylor on your fantasy team, you probably won this week. My opponent had him. I lost. Taylor ran wild in Berlin, racking up 244 rushing yards and 3 touchdowns, including the game-winner in overtime. 

Fun fact: This was the first-ever regular-season NFL game played in Berlin, held at Olympic Stadium, marking a historic expansion of the league’s international footprint.

Browns @ Jets 20-27

The Jets stunned the Browns and the rest of the NFL by winning their second game of the season. Despite gaining just 177 total yards and only 54 passing yards from Justin Fields, the Jets special teams had both a kickoff AND punt return touchdown. Cleveland’s offense was efficient and turnover-free, but the Browns became the first team since 1950 to lose a game while allowing under 175 yards and committing zero turnovers.

Fun fact: The Jets kickoff and punt return touchdowns in the same game marked the first time in franchise history they pulled off that double-special-teams feat.

Jaguars @ Texans 29-36

The Texans pulled off a stunning 36–29 comeback win over the Jaguars, scoring 26 unanswered points in the fourth quarter. Backup QB Davis Mills threw two touchdown passes and scrambled for the go ahead score with 31 seconds left, while Sheldon Rankins sealed the game with a fumble return TD. Jacksonville had led by 19 entering the 4th quarter. This was their largest blown lead in franchise history.

Fun fact: This was the first time in NFL history a team scored 26+ points in the fourth quarter to win after trailing by 19 or more entering the final period.

Bills @ Dolphins 13-30

Ummmm. What happened? Guys. You looked past this game. I told you not to. But, clearly, you underestimated the Dolphins. Now the egg is on your face. The Dolphins defense forced three turnovers and held the Bills scoreless through three quarters, while Tua Tagovailoa orchestrated a 92-yard TD drive to open the game. Buffalo rallied late with two fourth-quarter touchdowns, but it was too little too late.

Fun fact: This was the first time in franchise history the Dolphins scored 30+ points and forced 3+ turnovers in a win over Buffalo at Hard Rock Stadium.

Patriots @ Buccaneers 28-23

Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson racked up 147 rushing yards and two TDs, while Drake Maye added 270 passing yards and two scores to keep New England unbeaten on the road. Baker Mayfield threw three touchdowns for the Bucs, but their defense couldn’t contain the Patriots big-play barrage.

Fun fact: New England became the first team in NFL history to score four straight touchdowns of 50+ yards in a single game.

NY Giants @ Bears 20-24

Stop me if you’ve heard this before. The Giants had a double digit lead going into the fourth quarter. Did they win the game? No, no they did not. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. FIRE SHANE BOWEN. Now, after this epic collapse for the fourth time this season, Giants owner John Mara did something. Brian Daboll has been relieved of his coaching duties. BYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I think the straw that broke Daboll's proverbial back was Jaxson Dart’s exit from the game due to a concussion. Daboll was calling all the QB run plays. It wasn’t smart. In fact, the way Daboll was calling Dart’s plays had put him in harm's way all season. Dart is our team and if we are to have any run at any post season in the next few years we’ve got to keep him healthy. Daboll couldn’t do that. So, we lost the game we should have won. Dart is out with a concussion and it’s abundantly clear that Russell Wilson is not the answer. Dart had a hell of a game with two rushing touchdowns before he left late in the 3rd quarter, but the Bears capitalized on the terrible play calling from the Giants and a mediocre QB in Wilson and rallied from a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit thanks to two late touchdowns from Caleb Williams. 

Fun fact: Jaxson Dart became the first Giants quarterback in history to rush for multiple touchdowns in a game at Soldier Field.

Ravens @ Vikings 27-19

The Vikings really didn’t stand a chance with Lamar Jackson back for the Ravens. The Ravens defense forced three turnovers and Jackson threw for 212 yards and a touchdown, while the Ravens held QB J.J. McCarthy in check throughout. Ravens TE Mark Andrews added a fourth-quarter TD and two-point conversion to seal Baltimore’s third straight win.

Fun fact: This was Lamar Jackson’s 100th career regular-season start, and he became the first QB in NFL history to reach 10,000 passing yards and 5,000 rushing yards within that span.

Saints @ Panthers17-7

The Saints snapped a four-game losing streak with this divisional win over the Panthers. QB Tyler Shough had 282 passing yards with two passing touchdowns, one to Chris Olave and the other to Juwan Johnson.  Even Alvin Kamara got more involved with 83 rushing yards. Carolina’s offense sputtered after an early touchdown, managing just 175 total yards and turning the ball over twice.

Fun fact: Tyler Shough became the first Saints rookie quarterback to throw for 250+ yards and multiple touchdowns in a road win since Archie Manning in 1971

Cardinals @ Seahawks 22-44

The Seahawks crushed the Cardinals, jumping out to a 35–0 lead behind two defensive touchdowns and a near-perfect first half from Sam Darnold. DeMarcus Lawrence returned two fumbles for touchdowns, while Jaxon Smith-Njigba and George Holani added explosive TDs as the Seahawks improved to 7–2. The Cardinals rallied late with Jacoby Brissett throwing two touchdowns, but their early deficit proved insurmountable.

Fun fact: Seattle has now beaten Arizona nine straight times dating back to 2021, their longest active win streak against any division rival.

Lions @ Commanders 44-22

The Lions steamrolled the Commanders, scoring on their first eight possessions and racking up 546 total yards. Jahmyr Gibbs led the charge with 142 rushing yards and three touchdowns, while Jared Goff threw touchdown passes to Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams. The Commanders couldn’t keep pace despite two TD passes from Marcus Mariota.

Fun fact: Lions punter Jack Fox didn’t punt once, as Detroit became the first team this season to score on every drive with their starting offense

Rams @ 49ers 42-26

Matthew Stafford threw four touchdowns in this win over the 49ers. Kyren Williams added two rushing scores, and the Rams avenged their Week 5 overtime loss with a dominant offensive display that kept them tied atop the NFC West at 7–2. San Francisco’s Mac Jones tossed three TDs but couldn’t overcome two costly turnovers and a depleted roster.

Fun fact: Stafford became the first QB in NFL history to throw 4+ touchdowns with zero interceptions in three straight games

Steelers @ Chargers 10-25

The Chargers beat the Steelers, dominating defensively and capitalizing on key turnovers. Justin Herbert threw for 220 yards and a touchdown, while safety RJ Mickens’ second-quarter interception set up the game’s first TD. Aaron Rodgers struggled with two picks and a safety, with Pittsburgh’s only touchdown coming in garbage time.

Fun fact: The first quarter ended with a rare 3–2 score, marking one of the few times in NFL history a game opened with a safety and a field goal as the only points.

Eagles @ Packers 10-7

This game was pretty much a waste of time. It was borrrrrrrrring. No points were even scored until the 3rd quarter and that was a measly field goal. The whole 4th quarter was considered garbage time and still there was only one touchdown scored from either team. Lame. 

Fun fact: This was the first Monday Night Football game to be scoreless at halftime since 2009, highlighting just how rare and gritty this defensive battle was.


WEEK 11

Thursday, November 13th 

Jets (2-7) @ Patriots (8-2) (8:15pm PRIME VIDEO)

I mean, I’m not dumb. I am picking the Patriots to beat their division rival. 

Sunday, November 16th

Commanders (3-7) @ Dolphins (3-7) (9:30am NFLN, NFL+)

Who even knows anymore. The Dolphins fired their GM and then beat the Bills. I can’t imagine they’ll win two in a row, but they are playing the Commanders, who look just as pathetic as the Dolphins.  This game will be played in Santiago Bernabéu Stadium, Madrid, Spain. The Commanders have never won an international game, and Marcus Mariota has never started a game outside of the USA. The last time the Dolphins played overseas they were shutout. So, what I’m saying is it could go either way, or maybe no one scores a single point. Now that would be something. I’m picking the Dolphins to win this game. 

Bengals (3-6) @ Steelers (5-4) (1pm CBS)

We get the Icy-Hot bowl again! Rematch Alert: The Bengals stunned Pittsburgh 33–31 in Week 7 behind Joe Flacco’s 470 yard, 4 TD performance. The Steelers are hungry for payback. Reminder, Aaron Rodgers (Steelers) and Joe Flacco (Bengals) are both 40+, making this the oldest combined QB matchup of the season, again. I’m picking the Steelers to win this one, but I won’t be sad if I am wrong.  

Chargers (7-3) @ Jaguars (5-4) (1pm CBS)

The Jags blew a huge lead last week in NY Giants fashion. They are looking to bounce back but the Chargers are ferocious. I am picking the Chargers to win this game. 

Buccaneers (6-3) @ Bills (6-3)  (1pm CBS)

I guess it’ll depend on what team shows up this week for the Bills. I was sure they would beat the Dolphins last week. I like both teams and Baker Mayfield is my quarterback in one of my fantasy leagues. Sigh. I’m picking the Bills to win this game. Go Bills!

Bears (6-3) @ Vikings (4-5) (1pm FOX)

The Bears lost 27–24 in Week 1 after blowing a fourth-quarter lead. They’ve improved significantly since then and are looking forward to this divisional rematch. Even though the Bears are the away team, I am still picking them to win this game. I mean, they beat the Giants last week, they can totally beat the Vikings this week.

Texans (4-5) @ Titans (1-8) (1pm FOX)

I’m picking the Texans to win this game. I’ll be more shocked if I am wrong. 

Panthers (5-5) @ Falcons (3-6)  (1pm FOX)

The Panthers crushed the Falcons 30–0 earlier this season. The Falcons are seeking revenge and trying to snap a four-game losing streak. I am going against my normal, pick the home team for the win, I’m picking the Panthers sweep the Falcons. 

Packers (5-3-1) @ NY Giants (2-8)  (1pm FOX)

You’ll be shocked to know that I am picking the Packers to win this game. The Giants just fired head coach Brian Daboll and will likely be without rookie QB Jaxson Dart, who’s in concussion protocol. National Treasure Jameis Winston will get the start for NY. Mike Kafka is currently serving as the interim head coach. Obviously I’m still rooting for my NY Football Giants, and I have false hope again with the firing of Dabs. LET’S GO G-MEN!

Seahawks (7-2) @ Rams (7-2) (4:05pm FOX)

I am picking the Rams to win, mostly because they are the home team and should have home field advantage. 

49ers (6-4) @ Cardinals (3-6) (4:05pm FOX)

I’m picking the 49ers to win this game. I know the team is banged up but the Cardinals are also pretty depleted. Also, Marvin Harrison Jr, will be out this week as he had an emergency appendectomy earlier this week. 

Ravens (4-5) @ Browns (2-7) (4:25pm CBS)

With Lamar back, I’m picking the Ravens to win this game. 

Chiefs (5-4) @ Broncos (8-2) (4:25pm CBS)

Ok. The Broncos are undefeated at home this season. Denver’s defense is allowing just 18.3 points per game and ranks top 5 in pressure rate. The Chiefs are coming off their bye week.  Andy Reid is 22–4 after a bye week, one of the best records in NFL history. Patrick Mahomes is undefeated in regular season games against the Broncos (13–0). All that said, I’m picking the Broncos to win this game. Stick it to ‘em. 

Lions (6-3) @ Eagles (7-2) (8:20pm NBC)

You know what? I just decided. I’m picking the Lions to upset the Eagles at home. Let’s go LIONS! 


Monday, November 10th


Cowboys (3-5-1) @ Raiders (2-7) (8:15pm ABC, ESPN)

I would love to see the Raiders beat the Cowboys. It’s not likely, but I’d like to see it. I’m picking the Cowboys to win this game. 


BYE WEEK: Colts, Saints


GO G-MEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the edit Eric!

The Shenoa Report Week 10 '25 #theshenoareport

The Shenoa Report

November 6, 2025

Regular Season Week 10




Welcome to November. The trade deadline was Tuesday and there were some surprises. The biggest blockbuster being the Jets trading CB Sauce Gardner to the Colts and DT Quinnen Williams to the Cowboys. Other notable deals included the Seahawks acquiring WR Rashid Shaheed from the Saints and the Jaguars trading for WR Jakobi Meyers from the Raiders. Most shockingly, the Giants made no moves. Sigh? 

I was out of town last week celebrating my brother’s retirement from the military so I wasn’t able to watch much football. We were able to catch the World Series though, congratulations to the LA Dodgers, I was pulling for the Blue Jays. The best part about being out of town was being with family and close friends. The second best part was not having to watch my Giants lose. 

I bounced back somewhat in fantasy, winning in one league losing in the other. CMC Ya Next Season 6-3, Cursed 3-6.

Also, I went 9-5 in picks. 



Let’s jump into the recap! 


Ravens @ Dolphins 28-6

The Ravens decisively defeated the Dolphins on Thursday Night Football, fueled by the return of QB Lamar Jackson from injury. Jackson threw four touchdown passes, two to tight end Mark Andrews, while the Ravens defense capitalized on multiple Miami turnovers. The Dolphins struggled with miscues and could only manage two field goals, as the Ravens cruised to a comfortable victory.

Fun Fact: Lamar Jackson became just the fourth player in NFL history to throw at least four touchdown passes against the Miami Dolphins in three or more career games, joining Tom Brady, Josh Allen, and Drew Bledsoe.



Falcons @ Patriots 23-24

This was the ONLY game we got in the hotel room. Lame. The Patriots narrowly defeated the Falcons, I mean, whoa.  Atlanta mounted a fierce second-half comeback, fueled by three touchdown passes from Michael Penix Jr. to Drake London, but a missed extra point on the Falcons final touchdown with just over four minutes left proved to be the difference.

Fun Fact: Patriots quarterback Drake Maye extended his franchise record for consecutive games with 200+ passing yards and a 100+ passer rating to eight, surpassing a streak previously held by Patrick Mahomes for players under 24 years old.



Chargers @ Titans 27-20

The Chargers defeated the Titans in a gritty road win. The pivotal moment came when the Chargers defense made a dramatic fourth down goal line stand in the third quarter, which they immediately followed with a 99 yard touchdown drive led by quarterback Justin Herbert. Despite the Titans sacking Herbert six times, the Chargers held on for the win, with Herbert accounting for three total touchdowns.

Fun Fact: The Titans 67-yard punt return touchdown by Chimere Dike was the franchise's first punt return touchdown in nearly 13 years, dating back to December 2012.



Bears @ Bengals 47-42

We were able to see the conclusion of this game while we waited for our flight home. It was a fun one to watch, an absolute offensive shootout that featured two lead changes in the final minute. After the Bears blew a late 14-point lead and surrendered a go-ahead touchdown and onside kick recovery to the Bengals, QB Caleb Williams connected with tight end Colston Loveland for a dramatic 58 yard game winning touchdown with just 17 seconds left. The two teams combined for 89 points and over 1,000 total yards in one of the wildest games of the season.

Fun Fact: On the Bears opening drive, quarterback Caleb Williams caught a two-yard touchdown pass from wide receiver DJ Moore on a trick play. Then there was another trick play where Williams threw a backward pass to back up QB Tyson Bagent, who was lined up as a receiver, and Bagent then threw a forward pass back to Williams for a 20-yard gain. These two trick plays made Williams the first starting quarterback since 1953 to have more than one reception and at least ten completions in a single game.



Colts @ Steelers 20-27

I got this pick wrong… T.J. Watt and the Steelers defense effectively shut down star running back Jonathan Taylor and intercepted quarterback Daniel Jones three times, ultimately scoring 24 points off the Colts miscues. The Colts late comeback effort was halted by the final turnover, sealing a crucial victory for the Steelers at home.

Fun Fact: The six turnovers forced by the Steelers were their highest single-game total since Week 1 of the 2018 season.



49ers @ NY Giants 34-24

I managed to not see a single play of this game. Magical. It’s easier to weather a Giants loss when you don’t know what happened. I do have RB CMC, Christian McCaffrey, on the fantasy team that is killing it so I’m not even mad that we lost this game. I won in my fantasy league. Speaking of CMC, he was unstoppable, accumulating 173 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns. The Giants were able to score two touchdowns in garbage time. Jaxson Dart finished the day with one rushing and two passing touchdowns. 

Fun Fact: Christian McCaffrey’s performance marked his 16th career game with both a rushing touchdown and a receiving touchdown, breaking a tie with Marshall Faulk for the most such games in NFL history.

Not so Fun Fact: Dart was taken aback Sunday, he’s not used to playing home games where the away team has more fans. He commented that it was "interesting" and admitted, "I've never played at a home game where I felt like it was kind of lopsided in that department."



Broncos @ Texans 18-15

The Broncos seem to only win OR lose games in the last second by a field goal. It happened again. The Broncos won on a walk off field goal to end the game. The Denver defense was the backbone of the win, holding the Texans to five field goals and zero touchdowns despite Houston having five drives reach the Denver 20-yard line or closer, including two goal line stands. QB Bo Nix led the clutch final drive, including a critical 25 yard scramble, to deliver the Broncos their fourth fourth-quarter comeback win in five weeks.

Fun Fact: The Denver Broncos defense became the first team this season to hold an opponent to zero offensive touchdowns while facing five or more red zone attempts.



Vikings @ Lions 27-24

I definitely got this pick wrong. Vikings QB JJ McCarthy threw two touchdowns and ran for another score to give the Vikings a late 24-14 lead, which was threatened only after the Lions mounted a furious comeback to pull within three points. Ultimately, a crucial third-down conversion by McCarthy in the final minutes allowed the Vikings to run out the clock and seal the upset victory.

Fun Fact: Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy became the first Vikings quarterback in franchise history to throw two touchdown passes and run for a touchdown in their first-ever game against the Detroit Lions.



Panthers @ Packers 16-13

I got this pick wrong too! The Panthers defense limited the heavily favored Packers to just one touchdown despite Green Bay making five trips into the red zone, while Carolina's run game, led by Rico Dowdle's 130 yards and two touchdowns, controlled the tempo. Rookie kicker Ryan Fitzgerald secured the shocking victory with a clutch 49-yard field goal as time expired.

Fun Fact: This victory marked the second-largest upset in Carolina Panthers franchise history, as they entered the game as nearly two-touchdown underdogs.



Jaguars @ Raiders 30-29 OT

The Jaguars defeated the Raiders in a wild overtime finish, highlighted by a back and forth second half that saw five lead changes and a last second field goal to force overtime. QB Trevor Lawrence led the game winning drive in overtime, scoring on a 1 yard run.

Fun Fact: Jaguars kicker Cam Little broke the NFL record for the longest field goal with a 68-yard kick at the end of the first half, surpassing Justin Tucker's previous record of 66 yards.



Saints @ Rams 10-34

Honestly, this game was so lopsided that I’m just going to share the fun fact with you. 

Fun Fact: The Los Angeles Rams set an NFL season-high for time of possession in this game, holding the ball for an incredible 43 minutes and 53 seconds compared to the Saints mere 16 minutes and 7 seconds.


Chiefs @ Bills 21-28

LET’S GO BUFFALO!!!!! The Bills defeated the Kansas City Chiefs in a tightly contested rivalry game, driven by a nearly flawless performance from quarterback Josh Allen, who accounted for three touchdowns. The Bills defense was instrumental, pressuring Patrick Mahomes throughout the game and securing a key late game interception to snuff the Chiefs fourth quarter comeback. Though Kansas City rallied to make it a one score game, Buffalo's run game and ball control allowed them to secure the clock draining victory.

Fun Fact: Bills quarterback Josh Allen set a new franchise record for completion percentage in a single game (minimum 15 attempts), completing 23 of 26 passes for an incredible 88.5%.



Seahawks @ Commanders 38-14

The Seahawks jumped out to a commanding 31-7 halftime lead. The win was costly for Washington, however, as QB Jayden Daniels exited the game late in the fourth quarter with an elbow injury, possibly ending his season. 

Fun Fact: Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold completed his first 17 passes of the game, tying a Seattle franchise record for consecutive completions.



Cardinals @ Cowboys 27-17

The Cardinals snapped a five game losing streak by defeating the Cowboys on Monday Night Football, dominating the game with efficient offense and key defensive stops. YouTubeTV subscribers wouldn’t know because the richest people in the world seem to need more money, because money. Translation, ESPN, which is owned by Disney, is still unavailable on YouTubeTV because of contract negotiations. I’m so sick and tired of the rich getting richer while the rest of us can’t even watch football when we want! 

Anyway, Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett, filling in for an injured Kyler Murray, managed the game effectively with two touchdown passes and a rushing score, repeatedly connecting with Marvin Harrison Jr. The Cowboys offense struggled severely in the red zone, turning the ball over on downs multiple times and never truly threatening to take the lead.

Fun Fact: Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey attempted a 68-yard field goal at the end of the first half, which would have tied the all-time NFL record set just the day before, but the kick sailed wide left.




WEEK 10


Thursday, November 6th 


Raiders (2-6) @ Broncos (7-2) (8:15pm PRIME VIDEO)

Let’s just say I’ll be more surprised if the Broncos don’t win. I’m picking Denver to win this game. 


Sunday, November 9th


Falcons (3-5) @ Colts (7-2) (9:30am NFLN, NFL+)

This game is being played at the Olympiastadion Berlin (Olympic Stadium) in Berlin, Germany. This historic venue, originally built for the 1936 Summer Olympics, is also the home of the German football club Hertha BSC and will be hosting an NFL regular-season game for the very first time. The Colts are favorites going into this game, but being played overseas, anything is possible. I am picking the Colts to beat the Falcons. 


 


Browns (2-6) @ Jets (1-7) (1pm CBS)

I see the record of both teams. The Jets just traded Sauce Gardner, who was their entire defense in my opinion. Therefore, I am picking the Browns to win this game. 


Jaguars (5-3) @ Texans (3-5) (1pm CBS)

With C.J. Stroud already ruled out with a concussion this Sunday I am going to pick the Jags to win.. 


Bills (7-2) @ Dolphins (2-7)  (1pm CBS)

The Dolphins parted ways with Chris Grier, who had been their General Manager since 2016 and had been with the organization since 2000 after the loss last week. The Dolphins are in big trouble. The Bills should win this game easily. Don’t look past this game Buffalo! I’m rooting for and picking the Bills to win this game. LET’S GO BUFFALO! GO BILLS! 


Patriots (7-2) @ Buccaneers (6-2) (1pm CBS)

The Bucs are coming off their bye week but they are still pretty banged up. They have home field advantage and Baker wills them to win most games, but the Patriots are scary good this season. I’m going against better judgement and picking the Bucs to win this game. 


NY Giants (2-7) @ Bears (5-3) (1pm FOX)

We’ll find a way to lose this game too. I’ll be rooting for the Giants but picking the Bears to win this game. Go G-Men! 


Ravens (3-5) @ Vikings (4-4)  (1pm FOX)

With Lamar Jackson back under center it’s going to be hard for me to pick against the Ravens. They made a statement last week and I think they’ll do it again this week. I am picking the Ravens to beat the Vikings in this game of the Purple People Eaters. 


Saints (1-8) @ Panthers (5-4)  (1pm FOX)

The Panthers have continued to shock me this season. The Saints traded away their second best wide receiver this past week so I’m counting them out. I’m picking the Panthers to win this game. 


Cardinals (3-5) @ Seahawks (6-2) (4:05pm CBS)

In a game of angry birds I am taking the Seahawks to win this one. The Cardinals have placed QB Kylar Murray on IR so they'll be going with Jacoby Brissett. I’m still picking the Seahawks to win this game, who acquired Rashid Shaheed from the Saints this week. 


Lions (5-3) @ Commanders (3-6) (4:25pm FOX)

Even though the Lions lost a divisional game last week I think they’ll bounce back and beat the Commanders this week. The Commanders season is over without their starting QB Jayden Daniels. I’m rooting for and picking the Lions to win this game. 

 

Rams (6-2) @ 49ers (6-3) (4:25pm FOX)

The 49ers are underdogs at home per Vegas oddsmakers. They are pretty beat up but they won last week so they’ve got that going for them. I just hope this is a high scoring game because I have players on both teams in fantasy that I need points from. I’m going against the odds and picking the 49ers to win this game. 


Steelers (5-3) @ Chargers (6-3) (8:20pm NBC)

I need a big Chargers game for fantasy purposes, therefore I am picking the Chargers to win this game. Also, also, I like seeing Aaron Rodgers lose. 


Monday, November 10th


Eagles (6-2) @ Packers (5-2-1) (8:15pm ABC, ESPN)

The Eagles are coming off their bye and the Packers are coming off a humiliating home loss to the Panthers. I’ll be rooting for the Packers but the Eagles are favored to win this game. I’m picking the Eagles to win the game. 


BYE WEEK: Bengals, Cowboys, Titans, Chiefs 





GO G-MEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
