Sunday Night Football in Week 11 of the NFL 2014 regular season will feature a massive game between the New England Patriots and the Indianapolis Colts. Both teams will have huge ambitions to go all the way this season, and both will be looking to show their credentials today by claiming a win.

Sunday Night Football this week will take place from the Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana and will start at 8.30 p.m. EDT. The SNF game will, as usual, be aired live on the NBC network, but will also be available to watch online through live stream - free for subscribers via Direct TV's NFL Sunday Ticket - via the link provided below.

The New England Patriots have been in fantastic form and at 7-2 they currently top the AFC East. They do have some breathing room ahead of the second placed Miami Dolphins, who are 6-4, and the 5-5 third-placed Buffalo Bills. However, they will want to maintain their excellent form all the way through to the postseason and will want nothing other than a win today.

The Colts are also topping their own division, the AFC South. Their record of 6-3 is more than enough to give them space at the top of the weak division where no other team is even on .500; the Houston Texans are second on 4-5, where as the Tennessee Titans and Jacksonville Jaguars are 2-7 and 1-9 respectively, making the AFC South one of the least competitive and most boring in the league.

However, there is nothing boring about today's match up, and the Colts will have the chance to pit themselves against one of the favorites to go all the way to the Super Bowl this season.

The quarterback match up will be very interesting with Tom Brady going up against Andrew Luck.

Both quarterbacks have posted more than 20 touchdowns this season so far and are right at the top of the game. Brady is 214 of 334 for 2,392 yards and 22 touchdowns, where as Luck is 250 of 393 for 3,085 and 26 touchdowns.
