Week 12 in the NFL and it is the penultimate bye week of the season. It sees six franchises take a break.
Across the season each team gets one bye - or rest - week . Bye weeks occur between Week 5 and Week 14.
Week 13, being Thanksgiving week, sees all teams play, with the final bye week coming in Week 14.
Here are the six teams that will be on bye week in Week 12, November 22-26:
- Atlanta Falcons
- Buffalo Bills
- Cincinnati Bengals
- Jacksonville Jaguars
- New Orleans Saints
- New York Jets
Atlanta Falcons
The Falcons roll into their bye week after a heavy 38-6 at Denver, their second loss on the spin. 6-5, they still top NFC South, but with the Buccaneers still in the hunt behind them.
Buffalo Bills
Buffalo are purring and no doubt would have rather continued to play rather than taking a break. Their statement 30-21 victory over the Chiefs has them on a six game winning streak. That's 9-2 and top of AFC East.
Cincinnati Bengals
The Bengals go into their break on the back of two defeats, the latest coming at the LA Chargers 34-27. They are currently third in AFC North at 4-7. It is the North's leaders Pittsburgh up in Week 13.
Jacksonville Jaguars
2-9, bottom of AFC South, hammered by Detroit in Week 11, the Jaguars need some inspiration in their bye week. The Texans are next as the Jaguars limp towards the end of the campaign.
New Orleans Saints
The Saints have turned it up in recent weeks, with two wins on the spin, beating Cleveland 35-14 in Week 11. The Rams are up next, with the Saints needing to win to catch the struggling Falcons, who are clinging to the top of NFC South.
New York Jets
The Jets are hurting after that 28-27 loss to the Colts, which made it two in a row. 3-8 and the Seahawks come up in Week 13.
