NFL - Week Ten Review

The Green Bay Packers won at home in a snow storm, 24-16 against the Carolina Panthers (5-4) as their defense made a goal line stand from the two-yard line, stuffing Carolina running back Christian McCaffrey on the game's final play to secure the victory and improve to 8-2 for the season. Packers running back Aaron Jones scored three rushing touchdowns to pace the offense.
The Minnesota Vikings (7-3) topped the host Dallas Cowboys in the Sunday night game, 28-24 as tight end Kyle Rudolph hauled in two touchdown catches from quarterback Kirk Cousins and RB Dalvin Cook scored once and rushed for 97 yards. Cowboys QB Dak Prescott threw for three touchdowns and 397 yards in the loss, which dropped the Cowboys to 5-4 and a first place tie with the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC East division.

The Ravens defense also forced three more turnovers against the winless Bengals (0-9).
The Tennessee Titans (5-5) stunned the visiting Kansas City Chiefs, 35-32 as QB Ryan Tannehill threw the winning 23-yard TD pass to Adam Humphries with just 23 seconds remaining in the game. From there, Kansas City tried a 53-yard field goal to force overtime, but the kick was blocked as time expired.
Titans RB Derrick Henry (pictured right), the Heftyinfo NFL Player of the Week, scored two rushing touchdowns along with 188 yards on 23 carries to spoil the return of Chiefs injured QB Patrick Mahomes, who had a monster game, passing for three scores and 446 yards in the loss, which dropped the Chiefs record to 6-4 in the AFC West.
In the Monday Night Football game, the Seattle Seahawks (8-2) beat the host San Francisco 49ers, 27-24 as Jason Myers kicked a 42-yard field goal on the final play of overtime, sending the 49ers (8-1) to their first loss this season.
The 49ers raced out to a 10-0 first quarter lead before the Seahawks scored the next 21 points to go up 21-10 after three quarters. Each team scored a defensive touchdown off a fumble recovery return and San Francisco tied the game 21-21 when kicker Chase McLaughlin drilled a 39-yard field goal with 6:17 left in regulation. From there, the teams traded field goals to send the game to overtime, where the Seahawks got the win.
