Philadelphia doesn’t stop. The Eagles ran over Pittsburgh 13:35 at home and went up to a 0:7 record for the first time since 2004. Dallas does not give up and after 29:49 over Chicago maintains a safe distance from the blinders. New Orleans did not have a hard time at home against the unfortunate Las Vegas and devoured it 0:24. New England broke the winning streak of Zach Wilson and the Jets with 17:22 in the Meadowlands.

In Atlanta, the Falcons beat Carolina 34:37 ​​after overtime in a dramatic and chaotic game. Minnesota passed Arizona 26:34 and is already on a 1:6 record. Miami overcame a weak start and beat poor Detroit 27:31.

Derek Henry won for Tennessee in Houston 10:17 and Indianapolis managed to lose at home to Washington 16:17.

Philadelphia (0:7) – Pittsburgh (6:2) 13:35

The Pennsylvania Derby was supposed to be one-way and it was. Jaylen Hertz, who usually splits his time between the air and the ground, excelled this time in passing with 285 yards and four touchdowns, three of which were caught by the mesmerizing AJ Brown, who finished with 156 yards. 191 yards and a touchdown to Kenny Pickett, who finished without a touchdown in Pittsburgh. The Eagles are off to their best start since 2004, a season that ended with them reaching the Super Bowl.

Jacksonville (6:2) – Denver (5:3) 21:17

The two teams came into the game in London after a terrible month, and the teams went into the last two minutes of the game with a 14:17 advantage for the Jaguars, but immediately after they returned, Tevios Murray emerged from close range in the endzone, making it 17:21 and giving Denver the victory. Russell Wilson recorded 252 yards, a touchdown and a loss in another mediocre game (18 of 30), Trevor Lawrence fails to take off and finished with 133 yards, a touchdown and two losses on 18 of 31. 156 yards and a touchdown on the ground to Travis Etienne in Jacksonville.

New York Jets (3:5) – New England (4:4) 22:17

The two quarterbacks competed with each other as to who was worse, and Zach Wilson won by a landslide. After an impressive series of victories, the Jets succumbed to the mediocrity of Wilson, who did record 355 yards and two touchdowns, but the second of which came too late and after three aerial turnovers. The Patriots trailed 10:3 and scored 19 unanswered points, mainly thanks to the explosive leg of the X-Jet Nick Polk, who finished with five field goals. 194 yards, a touchdown and a loss to Mack Jones who, as mentioned, does not run a brilliant game.

Dallas (2:6) – Chicago (5:3) 29:49

After the win in Foxboro, the Bears wanted to continue the momentum in Dallas, but the Cowboys are just too good. Dak Prescott had 252 yards, two touchdowns in the air and a loss and added a rushing touchdown. In the absence of the injured Zeke Elliott, Tony Pollard took command, and oh, how he took advantage of the opportunity he was given, with 131 yards and three touchdowns. 151 yards and two touchdowns through the air for Justin Fields, who added 60 yards and a touchdown on the ground and also flirted with a tape comeback, before the Cowboys hit the gas again and ran from 23:28 to 23:42.

Detroit (6:1) – Miami (3:4) 31:27

The Lions, as usual, started well and the Lions, as usual, lost. Detroit went on a quick 0:14 and went into the break with a 17:27 lead, only to see Tua Tangobilua and the Dolphins pull off a turnaround with two touchdowns in the third quarter and close the endzone until the end. Toa racked up 382 yards through the air with three touchdowns, two to Jaylen Weddle and the last, which turned out to be decisive, to Mike Gazicki. 321 yards and a touchdown to Jared Goff, 53 yards and a pair on the ground to Jamal Williams in Detroit.

New Orleans (5:3) – Las Vegas (5:2) 0:24

What about Josh McDaniels? The Raiders coach again could not find answers, and finished with 0 offensive points and a poor contribution from his quarterback Derek Carr, who recorded 101 yards and an aerial loss and was replaced near the end by Jarrett Stidham. Alvin Kamara was responsible for the victory with three touchdowns, two catching and one rushing, and finished with 158 total yards. 229 yards and two touchdowns to Andy Dalton.

Minnesota (1:6) – Arizona (5:3) 26:34

Who would have believed that after a 1:1 start, the Vikings would win five straight with a deep entrenchment at the top of the NFC North? 232 yards passing to Kirk Cousins, who scored two touchdowns in the air and one on a rush to the endzone, 111 yards on the ground with a touchdown to Delvin Cook. Kyler Murray and the Cardinals continue to disappoint, as the quarterback finished with 326 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions and once again failed to lead his team to victory.

Atlanta (4:4) – Carolina (5:2) 34:37 ​​(overtime)

Yongho Ko’s field goal in overtime gave the Falcons a hard-fought victory after a dramatic game with a psychedelic ending on steroids. At the 28:34 mark for Atlanta, DJ Moore caught a Hail Mary for 62 yards and a tying touchdown with 12 seconds left. The bonus kick should have given the Panthers a win, but Moore ripped off his helmet, grabbed a flag, the ball was returned 15 yards, the Panthers missed and the game went to overtime. 253 yards, three touchdowns and two losses to Marcus Mariota on the winning side, 317 yards, a touchdown and a loss to Jay Walker on the other side.

For the Falcons, Donte Furman recorded 118 yards and three touchdowns on the ground. And Moore? 152 yards and a touchdown, but somehow we have a feeling this game he’ll want to forget.

Los Angeles Rams (4:3) – San Francisco (4:4) 31:14

It didn’t happen for a long time – 17 years to be exact. Christian McCaffrey became the first player in more than a decade and a half to record a rushing, catching and passing touchdown in the same game. The Carolina recruit passed 34 yards to Endzone, added a touchdown on the ground along with 94 yards rushing and also had 55 yards and a touchdown through the air. The Niners haven’t found their groove yet, but when they see the Rams they are hot and they just dominated the second half with 21 unanswered points. 235 yards and two touchdowns in the air for Jimmy Garoppolo, 187 yards and a touchdown for Matthew Stafford.

Seattle (3:5) – New York Giants (2:6) 13:27

After the trade for Russell Wilson there was concern that the Seahawks would fall apart, but no coach like Pete Carroll would let that happen. Seattle plays beautiful football, and managed to dismantle the stubborn Giants towards the end with two touchdowns, one on a pass from Geno Smith to Tyler Lockett and the other on a run by Kenneth Walker. Seattle took advantage of the Giants’ careless play on special teams, with Richie James’ two fumbles, one in each half, effectively deciding the game. 212 yards and two touchdowns for Smith, 176 yards for Daniel Jones in the Giants.

Houston (5:1:1) – Tennessee (2:5) 17:10

Ryan Tannehill got sick and in his place started the rookie Malik Willis, who put up a wonderful number of 55 yards and an aerial loss. The one who took the game on his shoulders was Derek Henry, who had 219 yards on the ground and two touchdowns and gave the Titans their fifth straight victory. 152 yards, a touchdown and a loss to Davis Mills in Houston.

Indianapolis (4:1:3) – Washington (4:4) 17:16

Somehow, in a strange section, the Commanders, one of the least aesthetic teams in the league, with a halved balance sheet. The Colts already led 7:16 deep in the last quarter, but a field goal on the other side shrunk it to 16:10. Indy couldn’t move the chains and Tyler Heinke, who was terrible until the closing stages, got the ball with 89 yards to go. At the end of an excellent drive that included a fourth down completion and two deep passes, he entered the endzone himself and with 26 seconds on the clock won the game for Washington. Heinke finished with 279 yards, a touchdown in the air and a touchdown in the run (and also a loss). 201 yards to Sam Ellinger in Indy.
