Titans crush Kansas City; Stafford leads Rams to win over his former team Detroit; Raiders’ offense dominates Philadelphia; Brady beats Bears and becomes first QB with 600 career TD passes
BALTIMORE – Joe Burrow threw for a career-high 416 yards and three touchdowns, including a pivotal 82-yarder to rookie Ja’Marr Chase in the third quarter, and the Cincinnati Bengals won their AFC North showdown against the Baltimore Ravens in style, pulling away in the second half for a 41-17 victory Sunday.
Burrow needed only four plays to put Cincinnati back in front on a 32-yard strike to C.J. Uzomah. After a Baltimore punt, he connected with Chase on his long TD to make it a 10-point lead. Chase came into the week with a league-best five catches of 40 yards or longer. On this one, he spun past a couple potential tacklers in the middle of the field, and then nobody was going to catch him.
This was the first time Patrick Mahomes had trailed by 27 at halftime and the third-largest halftime deficit for Kansas City since 1991. It was the worst since Kansas City trailed Pittsburgh 29-0 at the half on Oct. 2, 2016, and only the eighth time in franchise history that Kansas City had trailed by 27 or more at the half.
The Cardinals remained the NFL’s only undefeated team and improved to 7-0 for the first time since 1974. The Texans – who looked totally overmatched for three quarters – have lost six straight games. Jared Goff passed for 268 yards and nearly led the Lions to an upset win in his first meeting with the Rams , who traded him for Stafford in a blockbuster deal last winter.
It was Las Vegas’ second straight win since former coach Jon Gruden resigned Oct. 11 because of offensive emails he sent before being hired in 2018. The Tampa Bay defence did its job, too, limiting the offensively challenged Bears to Cairo Santos’ second-quarter field goal and sacking rookie Justin Fields four times, forcing two fumbles. Dee Delaney had one of the Bucs’ three interceptions, a first-quarter pick that led to Brady’s 599th career TD pass.
Washington outgained Green Bay 430-304 but had had five scoreless trips inside the Packers 30-yard line, including back-to-back series that ended inside the 5. Before Sunday, Packers opponents had scored touchdowns every time they reached the red zone. The Patriots earned their 12th straight victory and sixth consecutive season sweep over the Jets, who played most of the game without rookie quarterback Zach Wilson after the second overall draft pick left in the second quarter with a knee injury.
Calvin Ridley and Russell Gage caught touchdown passes for the Falcons . Ryan completed 25 of 40 passes. Pettis coincidentally threw the slightly overthrown pass on the flea flicker which Jones caught with the finger tips of his throwing hand. Jones finished 23 of 33 for 203 yards and had six carries for 30 yards.
