Daniels’s Hail Mary Beats Bears

In an epic Sunday night match, Jayden Daniels made a phenomenal 52-yard throw that landed in the waiting arms of Noah Brown, securing the Washington Commanders an 18-15 win against the Chicago Bears on the very last play. Despite first-pick Caleb Williams and himself being in the top two of the 2024 NFL draft, neither quarterback had managed a touchdown before the buzzer marked the end of the match.

In addition, in a surprise twist, Cleveland Browns interrupted their five-match losing streak when Jameis Winston, standing in for injured Deshaun Watson, made a remarkable 38-yard touchdown pass to Cedric Tillman with 59 seconds remaining. Baltimore Ravens’ own five-match winning run came to a halt after Winston’s effort, his first start in two years, totted up 334 yards from 27 of 41.

Further, the Kansas City Chiefs maintained their victorious momentum by defeating the Las Vegas Raiders with a score of 27-20, marking seven wins into the season. With Kareem Hunt, Travis Kelce and Xavier Worthy each scoring a touchdown, the Raiders suffered their fourth consequent defeat.

Meanwhile, Josh Allen’s two touchdowns helped the Buffalo Bills earn a third win in a row with their triumph over Seattle Seahawks at a score of 31-10.

In another close game, owing to backup quarterback Malik Willis, the Green Bay Packers scraped past the Jacksonville Jaguars with a 30-27 win. Brandon McManus played a crucial part, hitting a key late field goal despite initial starting quarterback Jordan Love retiring with a groin issue in the third quarter thus securing the Packers their fourth consecutive win.

Finally, despite the absence of their initial quarterback Drake Maye, New England Patriots managed to clinch a narrow 25-22 win over the New York Jets. Rhamondre Stevenson’s touchdown with just 22 seconds remaining was the game changer.

An early retirement due to a concussion saw Maye being replaced by Jacoby Brissett, who initially started the season at the quarterback position. His leadership in leading two fourth-quarter scores put an end to the six-match losing spree of the Patriots. Meanwhile, Tua Tagovailoa’s return after recovering from a concussion met a defeat when a late field goal by Chad Ryland helped give Arizona Cardinals a victory of 28-27 against the Miami Dolphins.

The Detroit Lions gave an impressive show as Jared Goff scored three touchdowns, leading them to dominate the Tennessee Titans 52-14. The triumphant Lions recorded 40 or more points for the fourth consecutive week, thereby achieving their fifth success in a row, which put them on top in NFC North with 6-1.

While Kirk Cousins led the Atlanta Falcons to a 31-26 victory against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Jalen Hurts demonstrated an impressive performance by rushing for three touchdowns and scoring another in Philadelphia Eagles’ 37-17 win over Cincinnati Bengals. The Houston Texans eked out a close victory over Indianapolis Colts with 23-20.

The losing streak of New Orleans Saints was extended to six matches following a 26-8 defeat by Los Angeles Chargers. On the other hand, Denver Broncos took down Carolina Panthers with a 28-14 score. Dak Prescott, the quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys, despite his two touchdowns and two interceptions, couldn’t prevent a 30-24 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.
