READ THE GAME ↗Jaxson Dart, Isaiah Likely and a patient Giants offense finish off Cowboys 28-20
On a night with no field-goal attempts and only three total punts, the New York Giants beat the Dallas Cowboys 28-20 by being sharper in the steady parts of offense: third down, the red zone and time of possession.
READ THE GAME ↗Chad Ryland’s steady leg and Jacoby Brissett’s control carry Cardinals past Chargers 26-14
Arizona won the kind of NFL game that can feel ordinary until the final margin makes the point for you. The Cardinals kept the ball, avoided giveaways and turned enough drives into points Sunday at SoFi Stadium to beat the Los Angeles Chargers 26-14.
READ THE GAME ↗Vikings score 29 straight after Green Bay’s 22-10 edge, beat Packers 39-22 in Minneapolis

READ THE GAME ↗Ashton Jeanty’s two touchdown catches help Raiders keep Dolphins chasing in 27-13 Las Vegas win

READ THE GAME ↗Dallas Goedert’s two touchdowns help Eagles edge Commanders in a 24-22 game of slim margins
Philadelphia did not have the ball as often, did not move it as steadily and still found the bigger answers. Jalen Hurts threw three touchdown passes, two of them to Dallas Goedert, and the Eagles held off a late Washington push for a 24-22 win at Lincoln Financial Field.
READ THE GAME ↗T.J. Watt’s pick-six gives Steelers the cushion they needed in 20-13 win over Falcons
Some NFL games are decided by volume. This one was decided by one swing. In a matchup where neither offense produced much separation, T.J. Watt’s 35-yard interception return at 14:05 of the fourth quarter became the play that carried the Pittsburgh Steelers past the Atlanta Falcons 20-13 at Acrisure Stadium.
READ THE GAME ↗Derrick Henry’s three touchdowns and Baltimore’s big-play burst carry Ravens past Colts 41-23
The Baltimore Ravens did not need perfect down-to-down rhythm to overwhelm the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. They needed a few clean strikes, a heavy dose of Derrick Henry, and enough control to turn a close first quarter into a 41-23 win at Lucas Oil Stadium.
READ THE GAME ↗Josh Allen’s late shot to Joshua Palmer carries Bills past Texans 36-31
For long stretches in Houston, the game belonged to the Texans’ patience. In the moments that decided it, it belonged to Josh Allen’s reach. Buffalo’s quarterback accounted for four touchdowns, and his 34-yard scoring pass to Joshua Palmer with 1:36 left gave the Bills a 36-31 win that looked nothing like a comfortable box score and everything like a team surviving on its biggest swings.
READ THE GAME ↗Bears run for 291 yards and six touchdowns in 59-37 win over Panthers

READ THE GAME ↗Trevor Lawrence’s four-touchdown efficiency sends Jaguars past Browns 34-10

READ THE GAME ↗Jahmyr Gibbs and Amon-Ra St. Brown carried Detroit past New Orleans in a 31-30 overtime escape
The Detroit Lions won a game that looked comfortable, then chaotic, then balanced on a single missed conversion. Their 31-30 overtime result against the New Orleans Saints at Ford Field was not built on gaudy passing numbers or flawless defense. It was built on timely scoring from Jahmyr Gibbs and Amon-Ra St. Brown, and on being just a little cleaner than a Saints team that moved the ball all afternoon but left too much behind.
READ THE GAME ↗Jets lean on Breece Hall, ball control and a sharp Geno Smith to put away Titans 23-10
The New York Jets did not need fireworks at Nissan Stadium. They needed control, and they had it for most of a 23-10 win over the Tennessee Titans, owning the ball, protecting it and steadily turning Tennessee’s thin offensive afternoon into a game the home side never truly shaped on its terms.
READ THE GAME ↗Turnover tax proves too steep for Buccaneers as Bengals lean on Evan McPherson in 33-27 win
A six-point final can hide a wider truth. The Cincinnati Bengals beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 33-27 at Paycor Stadium by doing the less glamorous work better: protecting the ball, cashing in with their kicker, and making Tampa Bay pay for every loose possession.
