2023 3GML Season - Week #6

Tennessee Titans 23

Baltimore Ravens 30

LONDON - The red hot Baltimore Ravens (4-2) picked up their 4th consecutive win with a 30-23 victory over the Tennessee Titans in London, England.

QB Jalen Hurts scored three TDs on the day and again led the team to victory.

Safety Jevon Holland and MLB Roquan Smith continued their dominant plan to lead the Ravens defense.

San Diego Chargers 23

Dallas Cowboys 16

SAN DIEGO - After being considered a playoff afterthought by many experts prior to the season, the San Diego Chargers (5-0) remain unbeaten after their 23-16 victory over the Dallas Cowboys.

Rookie DT Calijah Kancey returned to action after a 4-week absence to pick up a 'big man' INT in the 3rd quarter.

K Youngehoe Koo drilled a 56-yard FG late in the 4th to seal the victory despite the falling rain.

The Chargers will now travel to Arrowhead Stadium to take on the also undefeated Kansas City Chiefs.

San Francisco 49ers 27

Cleveland Browns 3

CLEVELAND - The San Francisco 49ers stayed undefeated with an easy 27-3 win over the short-handed Cleveland Browns.

The story of the game was Dalvin Cook who surprisingly popped up on the injury report earlier in the week with a calf strain.  Listed as "out" by the 49ers on the injury report, Cook dressed anyway.  When told league rules prevented him from playing, Cook took a Sharpie to his Jersey and introduced himself as Calvin Dook.  Referees shrugged and let him play.

The 49ers will look to keep their top spot in the NFC next week as they take on the Minnesota Vikings on Monday Night Football.

Philadelphia Eagles 10

New York Jets 20

NEW JERSEY - The Philadelphia Eagles struggled to move the ball against the elite New York Jets defense and fell 20-10.  The loss drops the Eagles to 3-3 on the season.

After the game coach Eric Bieniemy promised changes on offense.

"We'll evaluate everything," Bieniemy said.

The Eagles will look to rebound next week at home against the Dolphins.

New Orleans Saints 35

Houston Texans 27

HOUSTON - The Houston Texans lost for a second straight week to a previously winless opponent, falling this time to the Saints 35-28.

Defensively, the Texans looked sluggish and struggled to stop the Saints offense, giving up over 400 yards of offense.

Houston had a chance to go down and tie the game late, but Trey Lance threw a red zone interception that sealed the Saints win.

The Texans will try to regroup after their bye next week.
