NFL Week 11: On-Field Victories Fuel Off-Field Social Media Trolling, Led by Bears’ ‘Game Blouses’ Taunt.

Week 11 of the National Football League season delivered a compelling mix of hard-fought contests, significant statistical milestones, and an array of memorable post-game social media commentary. As teams battled for crucial positioning, the digital landscape became an extension of the gridiron, with franchises employing wit and pop culture references to celebrate victories and playfully antagonize rivals. Among the standout engagements, the Chicago Bears’ clever invocation of a classic comedy sketch following their triumph over the Minnesota Vikings garnered significant attention.

The Chicago Bears secured a narrow 19-17 victory over their NFC North rivals, the Minnesota Vikings, in a fiercely contested matchup. The decisive points came from a 48-yard field goal by kicker Cairo Santos, a testament to his reliability under pressure. The game was a seesaw affair, with the Vikings initially facing a daunting 16-3 deficit heading into the fourth quarter. However, Minnesota mounted a spirited comeback, managing to seize the lead with just 50 seconds remaining in regulation, only for the Bears to orchestrate a final, winning drive.

This come-from-behind victory marked the fifth time this season that the Bears have secured a win after trailing in the final two minutes of the fourth quarter. This achievement ties the record for the most such wins in a single season since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger, according to comprehensive data from ESPN Research. At the heart of Chicago’s late-game heroics has been quarterback Caleb Williams, who recorded his fifth game-winning drive in the fourth quarter this year. This figure represents the most game-winning drives by a Bears quarterback in a single season since the merger, underscoring Williams’s burgeoning clutch performance and leadership in what has been a season of notable improvement for the franchise. The victory improved the Bears’ record to 6-5, keeping their playoff aspirations alive in a competitive NFC landscape, while the Vikings, now at 5-6, face an uphill battle to remain in contention.

Following their hard-earned divisional win, the Chicago Bears’ social media team deployed a particularly sharp and culturally resonant troll against their Minnesota counterparts. The Bears’ official account posted a graphic with the simple yet impactful caption: "Game blouses." This phrase is a direct reference to a popular "Chappelle’s Show" sketch from the early 2000s, specifically the "Charlie Murphy’s True Hollywood Stories" segment. In the sketch, comedian Charlie Murphy recounts a humorous, albeit apocryphal, story of playing basketball against the legendary musician Prince. The pickup game famously pitted "shirts" against "blouses," with Prince’s team, surprisingly, dominating while wearing the latter. The genius of the Bears’ troll lies in Prince’s deep connection to Minneapolis, Minnesota, his birthplace and lifelong home. By referencing Prince’s dominant performance and the "blouses" attire, the Bears playfully implied their own superior performance over the Vikings in their home state, leveraging a piece of pop culture history that hits close to home for Minneapolis fans. The subtle jab was widely praised across social media as a prime example of modern sports rivalry.

Other Notable Post-Game Engagements Across Week 11

The Bears’ "Game blouses" post was just one highlight in a week filled with creative and often pointed social media interactions from NFL teams. Several other franchises seized the opportunity to add digital flair to their on-field successes.

Buffalo Bills 44, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 32

The Buffalo Bills delivered a dominant performance against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, securing a crucial 44-32 victory that underscored their offensive firepower. Quarterback Josh Allen was the architect of the win, accounting for an impressive 357 yards of total offense and a remarkable six touchdowns. Allen distributed his scoring equally, throwing three touchdown passes and rushing for three more. This exceptional display marked Allen as only the second player in NFL history to achieve three passing and three rushing touchdowns in the same game, a feat previously accomplished by Otto Graham in the 1954 NFL Championship Game. Notably, Allen had also reached this rare milestone earlier in his career, during the 2022 season, further cementing his status as one of the league’s premier dual-threat quarterbacks. The win propelled the Bills to a 7-4 record, strengthening their position in the AFC playoff race, while the Buccaneers fell to 4-7.

To commemorate their victory at Raymond James Stadium, the Buccaneers’ home field known for its distinctive pirate ship feature, the Bills’ social media team shared a video featuring former NFL running back Marshawn Lynch. Lynch, who played for the Bills from 2007 to 2010, was shown playfully operating the stadium’s pirate ship. As Lynch pressed a button to fire a cannon, a flag unfurled, cleverly edited to display "Bills Win," a direct and visually impactful declaration of their triumph over the Buccaneers.

Carolina Panthers 30, Atlanta Falcons 27 (OT)

In a hard-fought NFC South divisional clash, the Carolina Panthers emerged victorious over the Atlanta Falcons with a 30-27 overtime win. The Panthers clinched the game with a 28-yard field goal from kicker Ryan Fitzgerald, converted with 5:10 remaining in the extra period. Rookie quarterback Bryce Young delivered a career-defining performance, throwing for a franchise single-game record of 448 yards and three touchdowns. Young’s late-game heroics further highlight his potential, as he now boasts 10 career game-winning drives in the fourth quarter or overtime, the most in the NFL since he entered the league in 2023. This critical victory improved the Panthers’ challenging season record to 2-9, providing a much-needed morale boost, while the Falcons dropped to 5-6, losing ground in the divisional race.

The Panthers’ win was particularly sweet as it completed a season sweep over their divisional rivals. Capitalizing on this, Carolina’s post-game graphic emphasized their undefeated record against Atlanta in the 2025 calendar year. The visual theme for their social media post cleverly incorporated Interstate 85, the major highway that connects Charlotte, North Carolina, and Atlanta, Georgia. Adding another layer to the regional rivalry, the caption was inspired by the hit song "Move Bitch, Get Out Da Way" by Atlanta-based rapper and noted Falcons fan, Ludacris, delivering a playful but pointed message to their divisional foes.

Jacksonville Jaguars 35, Los Angeles Chargers 6

The Jacksonville Jaguars responded emphatically to a Week 10 collapse by dominating the Los Angeles Chargers in a decisive 35-6 home victory. The Jaguars’ defense was exceptional, limiting the Chargers to just 135 total yards and intercepting Los Angeles quarterback Justin Herbert once. On offense, the running back duo of Travis Etienne Jr. and Bhayshul Tuten led the charge. Etienne Jr. rushed for 73 yards and two touchdowns, while Tuten contributed 74 yards and a score of his own. The comprehensive win moved the Jaguars to a 7-4 record, maintaining their pursuit of an AFC playoff spot, while the Chargers’ struggles continued, falling to 4-7.

Jacksonville’s social media team opted for a straightforward yet effective troll. They posted a graphic of quarterback Trevor Lawrence running with the ball, artfully editing a lightning bolt into the image. The accompanying caption, "Stay grounded," served as a direct and clever jab at the Chargers, whose team logo prominently features a lightning bolt, subtly implying that the Jaguars had "grounded" their electrical prowess.

Pittsburgh Steelers 34, Cincinnati Bengals 12

The Pittsburgh Steelers secured a vital divisional victory by defeating the Cincinnati Bengals 34-12 in a hard-hitting AFC North contest. After conceding an early first-quarter touchdown, Pittsburgh’s defense clamped down, preventing the Bengals from reaching the end zone for the remainder of the game. The Steelers further capitalized on a Bengals miscue late in the fourth quarter, returning a fumble 34 yards for a touchdown. This defensive opportunism underscored a season-long trend for Pittsburgh, as they now lead the league with 77 points scored directly off turnovers this season. The win elevated the Steelers’ record to 6-5, keeping them firmly in the AFC playoff hunt, while the Bengals dropped to 5-6.

The Steelers’ post-game social media strategy leaned heavily into playful cat-themed puns, targeting the Bengals’ tiger mascot. Their posts featured multiple captions such as "Pounced on that dub," "Purrfect win," and "Let’s paw-ty," demonstrating a clear and humorous thematic attack on their divisional rival.

Los Angeles Rams 21, Seattle Seahawks 19

In a critical NFC West divisional clash, the Los Angeles Rams edged out the Seattle Seahawks with a 21-19 victory. The Rams’ defense played a pivotal role, intercepting Seattle quarterback Sam Darnold four times. Two of these interceptions were directly converted into touchdowns on the ensuing possessions, shifting the momentum decisively in Los Angeles’s favor. Quarterback Matthew Stafford managed the game efficiently, throwing for 130 yards and two scores, one to tight end Colby Parkinson and another to wide receiver Cooper Kupp. The win improved the Rams’ record to 6-5, intensifying the race for playoff spots in the NFC West, while the Seahawks fell to 5-6.

The Rams’ social media team playfully targeted their Pacific Northwest rivals by posting a graphic resembling an arcade game. Nicknamed "Hawk Hunt," the machine featured the Rams prominently displayed as the "new leader," a direct and effective visual metaphor for their victory over the Seahawks.

New England Patriots 27, New York Jets 14

The New England Patriots continued their impressive run, extending their winning streak to eight games with a 27-14 victory over the New York Jets on "Thursday Night Football." Rookie quarterback Drake Maye delivered a strong performance, throwing for 281 yards and a touchdown. Running back TreVeyon Henderson was a standout, accumulating 62 rushing yards and scoring three total touchdowns—two on the ground and one through the air. Henderson’s multifaceted scoring effort made him the first rookie in Patriots history to record two rushing touchdowns and a receiving touchdown in a single game. The Patriots’ remarkable eight-game streak improved their record to 9-2, solidifying their position atop the AFC East, while the Jets continued their difficult season, falling to 3-8.

The Patriots’ post-game celebration extended to the halftime show, where country band LoCash performed at Gillette Stadium. The band was joined on stage by legendary former Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski. In a moment that delighted the home crowd, Gronkowski, renowned for his iconic touchdown spike celebration, dramatically spiked a Jets-themed guitar. The Patriots’ official social media account later referenced this memorable act, further amplifying the celebratory and taunting message directed at their long-standing AFC East rival.

As Week 11 concluded, the integration of competitive sports with digital banter affirmed its growing role in the NFL experience, adding a new dimension to team rivalries and fan engagement.
