NFL: Buffalo Bills @ Baltimore Ravens 10:35

In the Sunday Night Game, the Buffalo Bills clearly lost out against the Baltimore Ravens. Josh Allen and Co. went swimming at 10:35.

Derrick Henry excelled with 209 total yards and two touchdowns, and the running back reeled off 199 yards on the ground alone. Lamar Jackson threw for two touchdowns and contributed another.

NFL highlights: Henry’s record run – Allen with a monster play

At Buffalo there wasn’t much faith in each other. Josh Allen had 180 passing yards (no touchdown), only Ty Johnson found his way into the end zone with a three-yard run. Unlike Baltimore, the running game was hardly a factor (81 rushing yards). It was the first defeat of the season for Buffalo (3-1), while the Ravens (2-2) got their second win.

NFL, Gameday 4: Kansas City Chiefs @ Los Angeles Chargers 17:10

The Kansas City Chiefs also won their fourth game of the season, but struggled against a strong Chargers defense.

The game could hardly have started worse for the Chiefs. The first drive ended with a fumble by running back Carson Steele. The Chargers use the following drive for a touchdown. Back in possession of the ball, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw an interception. Worse still, wide receiver Rashee Rice was injured on this play because he was cleared while trying to clear Mahomes.

NFL highlights: Mahomes and Chiefs win defense duel

The Chiefs’ offense had little impact. It wasn’t until 6:05 minutes before the end of the game that they took the lead for the first time when Samaje Perine ran into the end zone and made it 17:10. The Chargers’ ensuing drive ended after six plays. Kansas City didn’t give the ball back and let the clock run down.

Chiefs quarterback Mahomes delivered a mixed game with 245 passing yards, one touchdown pass and one interception. However, this also applied to Chargers passer Justin Herbert, who only managed 179 passing yards and one touchdown pass. Los Angeles now has a 2-2 record.

Washington Commanders @ Arizona Cardinals 42:14

The Washington Commanders are slowly becoming a top team in the NFL. After losing the opening game, the win over the Arizona Cardinals was now the third triumph in the series. Quarterback Jayden Daniels, the number 2 pick in this year’s draft, completed a strong 26 of his 30 pass attempts, recording 233 passing yards and a touchdown pass with one interception and also landed in the end zone once. The Commanders’ running game also proved to be a weapon with 216 yards.

Arizona also relied heavily on the running game and gained 182 yards of space. On the other hand, quarterback Kyler Murray was less effective as a passer (142 YDS, 1TD). The Cardinals have a disappointing 1-3 record.

New England Patriots @ San Francisco 49ers 1:30 p.m

The struggling San Francisco 49ers have found their way back to success after two defeats in the series. In the home game against the New Endland Patriots, they were already leading 20-0 three minutes before halftime. The Patriots reduced the deficit to 10:20 at the start of the third quarter, but were unable to add more. With 431 yards, the 49ers gained almost twice as much space as the Patriots with 216 yards.

49ers quarterback Brock Purdy recorded 288 passing yards, one touchdown pass and one interception. New England playmaker Jacoby Brissett had 168 passing yards, one touchdown pass and one interception. The 49ers have a 2-2 record, having won both home games and lost both away games. The Patriots have only been able to win one of their four games this season.

NFL: Cleveland Browns @ Las Vegas Raiders 16:20

The Browns and the Raiders, who both went into the game with a 1-2 record, had a party on equal terms. The decision was made 34 seconds before the end of the game, when the Browns played their fourth attempt at the opposing 9-yard line, but quarterback Deshaun Watson (176 YDS, 1 TD, 1 INT) was unable to find a pass-off point and was sacked.

Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew completed 14 of his 24 passes for 130 yards. Las Vegas’ two touchdowns were scored by DJ Turner and Tre Tucker.

New Orleans Saints @ Atlanta Falcons 24:26

The final phase was dramatic. One minute before the end of the game, the Saints ran for a touchdown through running back Alvin Kamara and took the lead 24:23. But the Falcons use the remaining time to get within field goal range again. Younghoe Koo then shot the Falcons to victory with a 58-yard shot – the longest field goal of his career.

NFL highlights: 58 yards! Kicker decides Saints vs. Falcons

Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins ​​​​threw for 238 yards, but did not pass a touchdown and threw one interception. Curious: The Falcons’ offense didn’t produce a touchdown. But the defense came up trumps. KhaDarel Hodge carried a recovered fumble into the end zone, Troy Andersen caught a pick six. The kicker provided the further points.

Saints quarterback Derek Carr recorded 239 passing yards. All-purpose weapon Taysom Hill ran into the end zone twice. Both teams have a 2-2 record.

The most important thing in brief

Cincinnati Bengals @ Carolina Panthers 34:24

After the Carolina Panthers practiced their quarterback change last week and secured their first win of the season, this time they lost to the previously winless Cincinnati Bengals. The Panthers kept up well for a long time and were tied at 14:14 just before halftime before the Bengals pulled away. Carolina quarterback Andy Dalton threw for 220 yards, two touchdowns and one interception.

NFL highlights: Offensive hi, defense ugh! Bengal’s tremors

Both quarterbacks were able to play their game relatively unchallenged because neither of them was sacked during the game. Joe Burrow had 232 passing yards, two touchdown passes and one interception. Chase Brown also scored two touchdowns. Both teams have a record of one win and three defeats.

Los Angeles Rams @ Chicago Bears 18:24

Number 1 pick Caleb Williams led the Chicago Bears to their second win in game four. The quarterback played a confident game, completing 17 of his 23 passes for 157 yards, throwing a touchdown pass and going without an interception. Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford managed 224 passing yards, but threw an interception a minute before the end of the game, sealing the defeat.

NFL highlights: Bears defense secures win against Rams

The running game proved to be an effective weapon for both teams. D’Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson ran into the end zone for the Bears, followed by Kyren Williams for the Rams. Los Angeles has a 1:3 record.

Minnesota Vikings @ Green Bay Packers 31:29

The Minnesota Vikings continue to be the surprise team of the season. They celebrated their fourth win in their fourth game against the Green Bay Packers. They were already ahead 28-0 five minutes before halftime. The overwhelmed Packers were only able to reduce the deficit to 7:28 because Vikings returner Jalen Nailor slipped a punt through his fingers, giving Green Bay good field position.

NFL highlights: Drama down to the final action at Vikings vs. Packers

In the final quarter, the Packers surprisingly found their way back into the party. With 56 seconds left in the game, they shortened the lead to 29:31 with a touchdown. However, the subsequent onside kick failed, allowing the Vikings to run down the clock.

Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold had an interception and a fumble, but otherwise delivered an outstanding game with 275 passing yards and three touchdown passes. Packers quarterback Jordan Love threw for 389 yards and four touchdowns, but also had three interceptions. The Packers have a 2-2 record after the loss.

Jacksonville Jaguars @ Houston Texans 20:24

The Houston Texans are plunging the Jacksonville Jaguars into total crisis. The team around quarterback Trevor Lawrence suffered their fourth defeat in the fourth game. Crazy: Across seasons, the Jaguars even lost nine games in the series with Lawrence in the starting lineup. This time, the playmaker completed 18 of his 33 passes for just 169 yards, but still managed two touchdown passes.

NFL highlights: Last Texans drive decides! Stroud delivers

Texans quarterback CJ Stroud was more effective, completing 27 of his 40 passes for a strong 345 yards and also throwing two touchdown passes. His favorite passing stop was Nico Collins, who caught passes for 151 yards and a touchdown. The Texans now have a 3-1 record.

Pittsburgh Steelers @ Indianapolis Colts 24:27

The previously unbeaten Steelers couldn’t get into the game at all against the Colts and went into the break with a 3:17 deficit. Indianapolis didn’t even let their quarterback’s injury stop them. Anthony Richardson suffered a hip injury, so Joe Flacco took over. The veteran threw a touchdown pass on his second play. In total, Flacco had 168 yards and two touchdown passes.

NFL highlights: Steelers’ rebellion comes too late

Steelers quarterback Justin Fields played an outstanding game, recording 312 passing yards and a touchdown pass, and also landed in the end zone twice. However, he could not avert defeat. The Colts now have a 2-2 record.

Denver Broncos @ New York Jets 10:9

In rainy New York, the Jets and the Broncos fought a defensive battle. The Jets didn’t get a touchdown the entire game. Only Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein scored points with his three field goals. Of all people, this one became the unlucky raven of the game because he missed a shot from 47 yards 47 seconds before the end of the game.

NFL highlights: Kicker drama at the Jets

Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers threw for 224 yards. Broncos playmaker Box Nix only managed 60 passing yards, but threw the game’s only touchdown pass to Courtland Sutton. In addition, Denver’s running game was more effective with 126 yards. Both teams now have a 2-2 record.

Philadelphia Eagles @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers 16:33

Tampa Bay got off to a perfect start and completed its first two drives with a touchdown. A good seven minutes before halftime, Tampa Bay was already ahead 24-0. The Eagles fought their way back in the game and reduced the lead to 14:24, but the Buccaneers’ victory was no longer in danger.

NFL highlights: Baker extraterrestrial! Bucs roll over Eagles

Tampa Bay quarterback Baker Mayfield delivered a very strong game with 346 passing yards, two touchdown passes and one run touchdown. Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, on the other hand, continues to find his form. He did throw one touchdown pass and landed in the end zone once, but only managed 158 passing yards.
