Mahomes' desperation results in another INTSometimes it's better to accept defeat and take the sack, especially when your team is at the opponent's 20-yard line in the final seconds of the half. But that's not Patrick Mahomes' style. He tried to make an acrobatic play, which he has done time and time again, only this time Mahomes just threw the ball up as he was being dragged to the ground. The result? Yet another turnover for the Chiefs, who had three in the first half and trail Washington, 13-10.
Chiefs' D leaving people wide open (again)The Chiefs entered Sunday with the NFL's second-worst total defense, allowing 437.4 yards per game, and it's plays like at the end of the first half that show why they've struggled so badly. With about 90 seconds to play before intermission, the Chiefs lost track of Ricky Seals-Jones running up the seam. Taylor Heinicke saw him, though, leading to an easy pitch and catch for a 39-yard touchdown.
Back-to-back INTsLamar Jackson and Justin Herbert combined for six interceptions over the first 10 games, but they turned it over on back-to-back plays in the second quarter Sunday. First DeShon Elliott stole the ball from Jared Cook, only to have Jackson throw the ball right to Kyzir White, who returned the ball down to the Ravens' 27-yard line. Two plays later, the Chargers were on the scoreboard with a much-needed touchdown to cut the deficit to 17-6.
Stafford dealing earlyMatthew Stafford has been great for the Rams so far this season, and his impressive play has continued against the Giants. He's completed eight of his first 12 passes for 117 yards and two touchdowns, including this connection with Cooper Kupp on fourth down.
The three-time Pro Bowler has spent most of this season on the Ravens' practice squad, but the team elevated him for the second time in Week 6, and Bell rewarded them with his first touchdown for his new team. It's still early, but Baltimore has dominated in the battle of 4-1 teams.
Another Mahomes INTOK, so it wasn't actually his fault, but Patrick Mahomes threw his seventh interception of the season Sunday against Washington -- more than he threw in each of the past two seasons. Making matters worse was that it went off Tyreek Hill's hands at the Washington 10-yard line, allowing Kendall Fuller to secure the turnover.
Injuries derailed Parris Campbell's first two NFL seasons, but there's a reason the Colts used a second-round draft pick on him in 2019. He showcased why in the first quarter against the Texans, running behind the entire defense and then under a perfectly placed pass from Carson Wentz for the 51-yard score. It marked just the second receiving touchdown of his career.
Bengals strike first with lunging TD catchThe Bengals wasted little time going up on the winless Lions, as Joe Burrow lofted a pass down the left sideline that running back Chris Evans caught in stride before falling into the end zone. It marked the first-career touchdown for the sixth-round rookie out of Michigan.
The Washington safety didn't get his head around, and Jody Fortson made him pay by corralling the twisting catch down the left sideline. On the next play, Darrel Williams scored a two-yard touchdown to put the Chiefs ahead.
Shorthanded Browns to have Hunt on pitch countThe Cardinals-Browns game was set up to be one of the weekend's best, but things got messy even before kickoff. The unbeaten Cardinals -- 3-point underdogs against the 3-2 Browns in Cleveland -- won't have head coach Kliff Kingsbury, who tested positive for COVID-19. The teams had a combined 17 players listed as questionable on the Friday injury report, with the Browns having two out for the game -- including star running back Nick Chubb.
That would normally mean a very busy day for backup Kareem Hunt, except that Hunt is dealing with wrist and knee issues and was one of those listed as questionable. According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Media, Browns coach
