Week 11 is here and with it, some pivotal divisional games!

The Bears and Lions face off in the early slate, as do the Giants and the Commanders. Meanwhile, Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb and the Cowboys look to keep up their torrid play against the one-win Panthers in Carolina and Justin Herbert and the Chargers head to Green Bay in a desperate bid for a bounce-back win against the Packers.

Later, the 49ers host the Buccaneers while the Rams face the Seahawks and the Jets head to Buffalo to play the Bills some must-win games.

Here is what social media is buzzing about on a high-stakes NFL Sunday!

Dallas Cowboys at Carolina Panthers (1 p.m. ET, FOX)

Cowboys Nation reacts to Jimmy Johnson news

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has officially announced that his longtime friend and former two-time Super Bowl-winning head coach, NFL on FOX‘s own Jimmy Johnson, is finally set to be inducted into the team’s ring of honor on Dec. 30.

It’s a long-awaited moment for Cowboys fans and for Johnson, who exited the team in 1994 amid a deteriorating relationship with Jones. The two former University of Arkansas teammates have since patched up their relationship, however, and their announcement today brought jubilation to Cowboys fans who had long been awaiting this moment — including one of Johnson’s former Cowboys players, Nate Newton.

Starting to think this fan may not be an actual lion…
