Green Bay Packers 27
GREEN BAY - The Packers hung on for their 4th win in a row 27-24 over the visiting Rams. Los Angeles made it interesting late as they had the ball with a chance to tie or win but couldn't get another snap off once in field goal range.
The star of the game for Green Bay was Isiah Pacheco who amassed 152 total yards on the afternoon.
"Just happy to get the W today," Pacheco said.
Green Bay will hit the road to take on the last place Pittsburgh Steelers.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers 14
Houston Texans 17
HOUSTON - The highly touted Super Bowl rematch between the Texans and Buccaneers hardly lived up to expectations with Houston winning ugly in overtime 17-14. The game featured stagnate offenses who struggled all day. In fact, the 22 total punts was easily the most in a game this season so far.
"A win's a win," said Jaelen Phillips who had two sacks on the day. "It's ugly until it goes in the win column, then they all look the same."
Houston will have to smooth out the offense next week as they take on the NFLs top team, the Cincinnati Bengals.
Seattle Seahawks 3
Baltimore Ravens 33
BALTIMORE - After starting the season 0-2, the Baltimore Ravens (7-2) picked up their seventh consecutive victory in emphatic fashion with a 33-3 demolition over the Seattle Seahawks.
Led by MVP candidate Jalen Hurts and Rookie of the Year frontrunner Bijan Robinson, the Ravens offense moved the ball at will throughout the contest.
"The job is never done," Hurts said. "That was a good football team we played against today, but it just went our way."
Baltimore is now heading into a crucial stretch where they are set to face three consecutive AFC playoff contenders in a row, starting with the Cleveland Browns.
San Diego Chargers 34
New York Jets 28
EAST RUTHERFORD - Trailing 21-3 midway through the second quarter, the San Diego Chargers (7-1) looked like a team destined to finally crash back to earth after their hot start to the 2023 season. But the team did not blink and were able to turn the tables on CJ Stroud and the New York Jets with a dramatic 34-28 win.
Rookie Nolan Smith picked up another two sacks on the day while fellow rookie Hendon Hooker steadied himself after a rocky start to propel the team to the victory.
"I took too many sacks early," Hooker said. "We knew the defense would keep us in it, so we had time to turn it around."
The Chargers now look to be a team with real playoff aspirations despite their relatively low profile roster - they will look to keep their momentum going at home against the Detroit Lions next week.
Dallas Cowboys 27
Philadelphia Eagles 31
PHILADELPHIA - AJ Brown caught the game winning touchdown from Will Levis with under a minute left to boost the Eagles to a 31-27 win over the Dallas Cowboys. Brown, who also had 105 yards receiving, was the main target for the rookie Levis on the day.
"Starting to really make a connection with Will," Brown said. "Dude's got a cannon."
With the win the Eagles move to 6-3 and a game out of first behind the New York Giants, who just lost Daniel Jones for the season to an ACL injury. The teams play twice in three weeks to end the season.
Philadelphia heads into it's bye week riding some momentum, but will have their biggest test of the season with the Kansas City Chiefs waiting for them week 11.
