In the first one, the Washington Redskins (5-4) will visit the Dallas Cowboys (8-1) for an all NFC East battle. According to the online sportsbook Bodog Sports, there will be no surprises during this Week 11 football game and the point spread on the Washington Redskins vs. Dallas Cowboys game is currently sitting at -11.5 points chalk the 'Boys with expected total of 47 points. The betting trends are on the Cowboys side - Dallas is 8-2 against the spread in its last 10 games and Washington is 0-4-1 against the spread in its last 5 games.

The Washington Redskins started the season with high hopes, which were brought down later by inconsistent game. The Dallas Cowboys, on the other side, are coming out strong against every team this season, losing only to the Patriots. So far each of the two teams will play on Sunday without a wide receiver - James Thrash for the Redskins and Terry Glenn for the Cowboys; the rest of the players have been upgraded to probable. The Dallas Cowboys have beaten most of their opponents by 10 points or more this season and it's likely they will cover the -11.5 points spread against the Redskins.

Another very interesting game this Sunday will match the Chicago Bears (4-5) and the Seattle Seahawks (5-4). The Bears won their last game against the Raiders 17-6 and Seattle gave no chance to the 49ers 0-24 and the Week 11 game is a must win for both teams - Chicago need to keep their playoff dream alive with the Lions playing the Giants this weekend and Seattle to stay atop of the NFC West. At Bodog Sports the point spread on the Chicago Bears vs. Seattle Seahawks is posted at 5.5 points chalk the Seahawks, who are also odds-favorite with money line -250 and the Bears posted as underdog with betting odds +210. Betting trends show that Chicago is 7-3 against the spread in its last 10 games on the road and Seattle is 1-4 against the spread in its last 5 games when playing Chicago.

In Chicago QB Brian Griese and safety Brandon McGowan were upgraded to probable for the game against the Seahawks, but DT Tommie Harris and CB Nathan Vasher remain questionable. The Seattle Seahawks, however, may fail to cover the -5.5 points spread with a long list of players still questionable for the game against the Bears. That list includes DEs Baraka Atkins and Darryl Tapp, Ts Walter Jones and Ray Willis, wide receiver Deion Branch and running back Shaun Alexander. The lack of these key players this Sunday could turn the game against the bookie.
