Broncos Overcome Eagles in Thrilling Finish

Denver's quarterback found a short touchdown pass and JK Dobbins added another rushing score in the final period as the Broncos overcame a 14-point deficit to hand the Eagles their initial defeat of the campaign. The Broncos deflected the Eagles quarterback's final attempt on the game's concluding play to hand the Super Bowl champions to just their second defeat in their previous 22 outings. Denver (3-2) caught a huge break in their comeback when the Eagles had a crucial play called back on a formation infraction called on running back Saquon Barkley.

Houston Texans 44–10 Baltimore Ravens

CJ Stroud passed for 244 yards and four scoring throws, and the Texans (2-3) strolled to a decisive victory over a depleted Baltimore team, matching both the biggest away victory in Texans' history and the worst home defeat in Baltimore's annals. Baltimore (one win and four losses) were without two-time MVP quarterback Lamar Jackson, and that was far from their only problem. Key defenders multiple defensive leaders all were absent, and the Baltimore already were depleted on that side of the ball because of a neck problem that concluded Nnamdi Madubuike's campaign. The Ravens were also missing Pro Bowl blocker Ricard and offensive lineman Stanley.

Javonte Williams ran for 135 yards and a score and also hauled in a TD pass. The Cowboys, now two wins, two losses, and a tie, bounced back from a 40-40 tie against the Packers last Sunday.

Vikings Edge Browns in London Thriller

Vikings receiver Addison grabbed a short touchdown pass from Carson Wentz with under half a minute left to give Minnesota a win over the Browns at the UK venue. This methodical march gave the Minnesota (three wins and two losses) a much-needed win on their historic international road trip, which began with a 24-21 loss to the Pittsburgh in Dublin last Sunday. This also marred the rookie's first NFL start, as the Browns first-year player put his team (1-4) in position to win by throwing two touchdown passes. Fellow rookie Judkins gained 110 yards on 23 carries. The quarterback overcame an arm issue that briefly forced him out and directed two touchdown marches in the latter half.

Panthers Stage Epic Comeback Against Dolphins

Carolina's quarterback passed for two touchdowns and Rico Dowdle rushed for 206 rushing yards and a score as the Panthers rallied past the Dolphins in their home stadium. The quarterback's short pass to rookie tight end Mitchell Evans with 1:59 to go gave the Carolina (two wins and three losses) the lead for good as they equaled the largest comeback to win a game in team history by erasing a 17-point hole. Young had a poor start, but he finished 19-for-30 passing for 198 passing yards with an interception. Dowdle, replacing the sidelined starter, did his damage on the run on 23 attempts, falling four yards of matching the single-game franchise rushing record. The Dolphins' Tua Tagovailoa threw 27 passes out of 36 for 256 yards with three scores and receiver Waddle gained 110 yards through the air on six receptions and added a score, but the Dolphins (one win and four losses) fell to zero wins and three losses in road games.

New York Giants 14–26 New Orleans Saints

The QB earned his maiden win in 11 professional starts, passing for 225 yards without a turnover.

Both teams are one win and four losses.
