Washington Commanders 23-30 Baltimore Ravens
Lamar Jackson threw for 323 yards and a touchdown to outscore rookie Jayden Daniels and the Baltimore Ravens (4-2) defeated the Washington Commanders (4-2) for their fourth straight win. Washington’s winning streak ended at four. Derrick Henry ran for 132 yards and scored his NFL-leading eighth and ninth TDs. Mark Andrews found the end zone for the first time this season with a 13-yard reception from Jackson. Daniels connected with Terry McLaurin on two TDs, but the Commanders struggled to get much of a running game going and were unable to contain Jackson and Henry.
Cleveland Browns 16-20 Philadelphia Eagles
Jalen Hurts threw for 264 yards and two touchdowns, including a 45-yard toss to DeVonta Smith in the fourth quarter, and the ragged Philadelphia Eagles held off the Cleveland Browns. Hurts also threw a 22-yard touchdown to AJ Brown, who returned along with Smith after both wide receivers missed time with injuries. The Eagles improved to 3-2 after their bye, while the Browns fell to 1-5. Cleveland got their only touchdown on a blocked field goal by Myles Garrett that Rodney McLeod Jr. returned for a score. Quarterback Deshaun Watson had another ineffective game for the Browns.
Houston Texans 41-21 New England Patriots
CJ Stroud threw three touchdown passes and the Houston Texans (5-1) spoiled the first start of rookie New England quarterback Drake Maye, who flew past the Patriots (1-5). Joe Mixon rushed for 102 yards and caught a TD pass from Stroud. Stefon Diggs had six catches for 77 yards and a score for the AFC South-leading Texans, and Tank Dell had seven receptions for 57 yards and a TD. The Patriots got a boost from Maye, the No. 3 overall pick in the NFL draft. He took over for veteran Jacoby Brissett and finished 20 of 33 for 243 yards and three touchdowns.
Arizona Cardinals 13-34 Green Bay Packers
Romeo Doubs returned from a one-game suspension to catch two of Jordan Love’s four touchdown passes in the Green Bay Packers’ 2-4 victory over the foul-prone Arizona Cardinals. Doubs missed the Packers’ 24–19 win over the Los Angeles Rams due to conduct detrimental to the team after missing two practices. He scored on receptions of 10 and 20 yards on Sunday. Love also threw touchdown passes of five yards to Jayden Reed and 44 yards to Christian Watson while going 22 of 32 for 258 yards with one interception. His four touchdown passes for Green Bay (4-2) matched a career high.
Indianapolis Colts 20-17 Tennessee Titans
Joe Flacco threw for 189 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Indianapolis Colts to victory over the Tennessee Titans. The Colts (3-3) got a much-needed stretch of back-to-back road games in the AFC South, with second-year quarterback Anthony Richardson scratched again with an injured right hip. The battered Colts had also shut down 2021 NFL champion Jonathan Taylor for a second straight game. The Titans (1-4) have now lost three in a row to their division rival. They will have to wait until November to try to win their first home game this season for first-year coach Brian Callahan.
Chicago carries 35-16 Jacksonville Jaguars
Caleb Williams threw four touchdown passes — two each to receiver Keenan Allen and tight end Cole Kmet — and the Chicago Bears held a tea party in the end zone in a rout of the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. Along with the rookie quarterback’s big day, Kmet contributed by handling emergency duties with long breaks as the Bears (4-2) won their third straight game for the first time in nearly four years. The Jags fell to 1-5.
