The Miami Dolphins scored 70—yes, 70—points in their win over the Denver Broncos, only two points shy of the NFL's regular-season record set in 1966.

Carlson had converted on another field goal less than a minute of game time earlier, but McDaniels sent his offense back out after a Steelers penalty. In all, the Raiders got the same result—a field goal to cut it to a five-point deficit—but cut into the clock. After the game, McDaniels was questioned on his decision to tack on three points rather than trying to score a touchdown and tie the game up with an ensuing two-point conversion.

NFL's Next Gen Stats noted that the Raiders' win probability dropped by 5.4 percent when McDaniels opted for a field goal rather than rolling the dice on fourth down. The second-year Raiders head coach could learn a thing or two about playing the odds in Vegas.Jonathan Gannon and Shane Steichen both earned head coaching jobs after spending last season as coordinators with the Philadelphia Eagles. Week 3 showed promising signs for both of them early in their head coaching tenures.

"That's the challenge of this league, you know, every game is so unique to the specific matchups and so forth," Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy said postgame."This has been a rough week on a lot of fronts. I think the amount of adversity you go through, your preparation process, and we didn't have enough today. The disciple and the penalties. We have to learn from this. It's going to be an every-week challenge.

The Vikings dropped to 0-3 with a 28-24 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Minnesota has lost all three of its games to start the 2023 season by six points or less. And at least a couple of those losses might have been self-inflicted. The Vikings have an NFL-leading seven fumbles, including one against the Chargers, already this season and have lost all of them. Quarterback Kirk Cousins also threw an interception, giving Minnesota an NFL-worst minus-seven turnover ratio this season.
