The San Francisco 49ers (9-3) went into Philadelphia on Sunday and dominated the Eagles, 42-19 to win their fourth consecutive game. The Eagles (10-2) saw their five game winning streak snapped as 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy had four touchdown passes while throwing for 314 yards in the rout. Wide receiver Deebo Samuel (four receptions for 116 yards) hauled in two scoring passes and also had a 12-yard rushing touchdown while running back Christian McCaffrey ran for 93 yards and scored a touchdown. The Eagles closed to within 21-13 midway through the third quarter when QB Jalen Hurts scored on a one-yard run, but from there it was all 49ers the rest of the way.
On Thursday night in Dallas, the host Cowboys (9-3) won a 41-35 thriller against the Seattle Seahawks (6-6) with QB Dak Prescott passing for 299 yards and three scoring passes while RB Tony Pollard had a rushing TD and kicker Brandon Aubrey nailed four field goals. Seattle led 21-20 at halftime as QB Geno Smith had a big game, passing for three scores along with one interception and 334 yards. All three of the TD passes went to wide receiver DK Metcalf, who also had six receptions for 134 yards in the loss.
The Detroit Lions (9-3) got back on track with a 33-28 road victory against the New Orleans Saints (5-7) as they raced out to a 21-0 lead and a 24-7 advantage at the half as QB Jared Goff had two TD passes and David Montgomery scored a rushing touchdown. The Saints fought back as Taysom Hill scored a rushing TD and RB Alvin Kamara added two more rushing scores, but it wasn't enough as Lions WR Jameson Williams iced the win on a 19 yard scoring run for a 33-21 lead early in the fourth quarter.
In Washington, D.C., the Miami Dolphins improved to 9-3 with a 45-15 trouncing of the Commanders (4-9) as QB Tua Tagovailoa threw two long scoring passes (75 and 60 yards) to WR Tyreek Hill (five receptions for 157 yards) and RB Devon Achane scored twice on the ground and RB Raheem Mostert also had a rushing TD while Andrew Van Ginkel took an interception back 33 yards for a score to pace the rout.

Meanwhile, the Steelers lost starting QB Kenny Pickett to an ankle injury in the first half and reserve Mitch Trubisky could only manage a late TD pass with the Cardinals ahead by 21 points.
The Indianapolis Colts (7-5) continued their magic carpet ride with a 31-28 win in overtime at Tennessee as QB Gardner Minshew threw a four yard TD pass to wide receiver Michael Pittman for the winning score in the OT session. The Titans (4-8) led 17-7 as RB Derrick Henry (21 carries for 102 yards) scored two rushing touchdowns before the Colts finally got rolling as they eventually took a 25-19 lead midway through the final quarter thanks to four field goals by kicker Matt Gay and a blocked punt return for a touchdown by Grant Stuard. The Titans tied the game up on a three yard TD pass from Will Levis to DeAndre Hopkins late in the fourth quarter. The extra point was no good and that enabled the game to go to overtime.
The Houston Texans (7-5) knocked off the visiting Denver Broncos, 22-17, snapping the five game win streak Denver had going as QB C.J. Stroud (pictured right) connected with WR Nico Collins on a three yard TD pass. The Broncos (6-6) had a chance for the win late in the game, but the second interception thrown by QB Russell Wilson in the fourth quarter with just 14 seconds remaining ended any hopes of another win.
The Los Angeles Chargers (5-7) snapped a three game skid with a 6-0 win at New England in a torrential downpour throughout the afternoon thanks to a pair of 38-yard field goals by Cameron Dicker. The Patriots fell to 2-10 this season with the loss.
In a yawner between the Atlanta Falcons (6-6) and New York Jets (4-8), the visiting Falcons won, 13-8 as QB Desmond Ridder had a TD pass and Younghoe Koo made two field goals to provide the difference. The Jets failed to score a touchdown in this loss and have only scored nine offensive touchdowns the entire season.
In Los Angeles, the Rams (6-6) won their third straight game, 36-19 against the Cleveland Browns (7-5) as QB Matthew Stafford threw for three touchdowns and 279 passing yards while RB Kyren Williams had a rushing score.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-7) topped the visiting Carolina Panthers, 21-18 as RB Rachaad White scored a rushing TD and QB Baker Mayfield hooked up with Mike Evans on a 75-yard TD strike and Chris Godwin scored on a 19-yard TD run. The Panthers (1-11) hung tough as RB Chuba Hubbard scored two rushing touchdowns in defeat.
On Sunday Night Football in Green Bay, the Packers (6-6) continued to surge as they won their third straight game in convincing fashion, 27-19 against the Kansas City Chiefs, who dropped to 8-4 with the loss. Packers QB Jordan Love had 267 passing yards and three TD passes in the win, with two of the scoring passes going to WR Christian Watson as they built a 21-12 lead entering the fourth quarter.

The Cincinnati Bengals shocked the host Jacksonville Jaguars, 34-31 in overtime on Monday Night Football as kicker Evan McPherson made the game winning 48-yard field goal to boost the Bengals to 6-6 this season.

Running back Joe Mixon ran for two more scores and WR Ja'Marr Chase had 11 receptions for 149 yards, including a 76-yard TD that put Cincy ahead 21-14 early in the third quarter.
