2024 NFL Season, Week 8: What We Learned from Sunday's games

• RE-WATCH: Ravens-Browns on NFL+ Premium

Nick Shook's takeaways:

1. Winston breathes life into Browns' offense. As the 39th Browns starting quarterback since 1999, Jameis Winston faced the unenviable task of attempting to lift Cleveland's offense out of the darkness that consumed it over the first seven weeks of the season. Fortunately, he had all but one of the Browns' starting five offensive linemen to protect him and he benefitted, facing pressure on just 11 of his 43 dropbacks and completing 27 of 41 passes for 334 yards and three touchdowns. The numbers didn't come without some typical Winston risks, but he escaped the worst possible outcomes. Most importantly, Winston invigorated a largely dormant Browns passing attack, delivering passes on time with confidence that Deshaun Watson lacked in his seven starts. That meant getting Jerry Jeudy, Elijah Moore and even Cedric Tillman (seven catches, 99 yards, two touchdowns) involved and finally challenging an opposing defense. The end result for Cleveland: A season-high 29 points, a go-ahead touchdown pass in the game's final minute and a massive upset win over one of the AFC's top teams. If any team needed a day like today, it was the Browns. They can thank Winston for it -- and could view this as hard evidence that they don't have a future with Watson.
2. Details doom Ravens. Statistically, Baltimore played well enough to win in most categories. Lamar Jackson threw for 289 yards and two touchdowns and amassed 335 total yards, and despite finishing under 100 yards, Derrick Henry still averaged 6.6 per carry. But the Ravens lost this game because they didn't do the little things right. Rashod Bateman lost a wide-open pass in the sun and had it bounce off his facemask on third down in the fourth quarter. Kyle Hamilton dropped an interception that almost certainly would've ended Cleveland's comeback chances. Eddie Jackson spent most of the afternoon getting dusted by Tillman in coverage. And finally, the Ravens converted just 2 of 10 third-down attempts. This was a winnable game and, in spots, Baltimore moved the ball with ease. But the Ravens will regret how they performed Sunday, especially when it comes to sorting out the AFC standings as the postseason approaches this winter.
3. Cleveland's defense finally gets the win it deserved. Save for a blowout loss in Week 1 and a road defeat that snowballed in Washington in Week 5, the Browns' defense has spent most of 2024 playing quality football. It's been a playoff caliber unit that has been bogged down by a putrid offense. In the Browns' toughest matchup to date, they delivered, limiting Jackson to a 23-of-38 passing line and repeatedly slamming the door on third down. They also did so while enduring a couple of key injuries, losing Denzel Ward and Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah, yet they still found a way to get the job done. As Cleveland has drifted into irrelevance due to its 1-6 start, few have been able to appreciate its defense. Consider Sunday -- a game in which they prevented Henry from hurting them -- the Browns' new high-water mark for 2024.

Next Gen Stats Insight from Ravens-Browns (via NFL Pro): Jameis Winston completed 27 of 41 passes for 334 yards and three touchdowns while averaging 9.6 air yards per completion. Winston’s 9.6 air yards per completion are the most by a Browns quarterback since Joe Flacco in Week 16 of last season (9.6).

NFL Research: Jameis Winston became the first Browns quarterback to finish with 300-plus passing yards, three passing touchdowns and zero interceptions since Week 11 of 2022 (Jacoby Brissett).

• RE-WATCH: Titans-Lions on NFL+ Premium

Kevin Patra's takeaways:

1. Lions pour it on with big plays in trouncing Titans. Big returns. Big runs. Big turnovers forced. Dan Campbell's club blasted off, putting up a 50-burger before the third quarter even ended. Detroit's first four touchdowns came on drives of two plays, one play, three plays and four plays, respectively. Jahmyr Gibbs rocketed for an untouched 70-yard TD. The Lions generated three significant returns (more on that later). And the defense forced four turnovers. The domination was so overwhelming that the Lions didn't need much from MVP candidate Jared Goff, who completed 12 of 15 passes for a measly 85 yards and three touchdowns while taking four sacks before sitting out the final 12 minutes of the contest. Detroit ended the blowout with 61 net passing yards, a crazy anomaly in the Year of Our Lord, 2024. In a potential trap game sandwiched between NFC North battles in Minnesota and Green Bay, Campbell's club moonwalked over the trap door. The sign of a great team is clicking on all three phases and trouncing a lesser opponent. 
2. Titans continue to make backbreaking mistakes. Mason Rudolph and the offense moved the ball early, but turnovers, awful special teams and a trove of miscues on defense sunk Brian Callahan's club. Early in the second quarter, Rudolph hit Nick Westbrook-Ikhine for a touchdown to make it 14-14. Detroit then blitzed Tennessee for 38 consecutive points. Whenever the Titans seem to figure out one issue, another hole springs a gushing leak. The offense moved the ball, outgaining Detroit, 417-225, but the defense made mental mistakes, leaving several Lions wide open in the red zone, the special teams was atrocious and the turnovers piled up. Calvin Ridley finally showed up, earning 143 yards on 10 catches, but it was all for naught. Given Sunday's performance, Tennessee will likely continue to be sellers heading toward the trade deadline. 
3. Lions' return game shines. Detroit put the "dynamic" in the return phase. Khalil Dorsey blasted off for a 72-yard kickoff return. Kalif Raymond then took a punt return 64 yards. Those sprints set up short-field TDs. Early in the third quarter, Raymond finished the deal, weaving for a 90-yard punt return touchdown. The Lions generated 262 return yards on six total returns, with Raymond earning 190 of those. The unit’s +196 return yards over expected is the most in a game since at least 2018 (previous high, +160), per Next Gen Stats. Toss in kicker Jake Bates netting a career-long 51-yard field goal, and it was a banner day for the Lions special teams unit. 

Next Gen Stats Insight for Titans-Lions (via NFL Pro): Jahmyr Gibbs reached a top speed of 22.03 mph on his 70-yard TD run, the second-fastest speed by a ball carrier this season (behind only Brian Thomas Jr. in Week 5, 22.15).

NFL Research: Amon-Ra St. Brown is the first Lions player with a receiving TD in five consecutive games in a season since Calvin Johnson in 2011.

• RE-WATCH: Colts-Texans on NFL+ Premium

Kevin Patra's takeaways:

1. Stroud, Texans survive, strengthen grip on AFC South. Survive is the keyword for Houston on Sunday. DeMeco Ryan's team survived a late turnover that could have flipped the result. The Texans survived up-and-down play from the offense. They survived a Stefon Diggs injury. And C.J. Stroud once again survived sub-par blocking from the offensive line. Joe Mixon blasted his way for 102 yards on 25 carries with a bulldozing touchdown. However, it wasn't a pretty day for Stroud, who was just a tad off on a host of throws. However, he made the ones that counted, including a pretty touchdown to Tank Dell to close out the first half, giving Houston a lead they wouldn't relinquish. Stroud was pressured on 57.5% of his dropbacks, a career-high, getting battered time and time again. It was a surprise he took only two sacks. The victory gave Houston a season sweep of Indy and a two-game lead in the division. 
2. Richardson struggles in loss. Jonathan Taylor's return gave the Colts offense a spark. The veteran back galloped for 105 yards and a TD on 20 carries. It was a good thing Indy had Taylor, otherwise the offense might not have done much of anything. Anthony Richardson misfired repeatedly, missing passes behind, low, and every which way but on target. The QB finished 10-of-32 passing for 175 yards with a TD, an interception and took five sacks. One of those completions went for 69 yards to a wide-open Josh Downs for a touchdown. Richardson earned 106 yards on his other 31 attempts. The second-year signal-caller earned a -16.0 completion percentage over expected. It was somewhat surprising that coach Shan Steichen continued to put the ball in Richardson's right hand, given the quarterback's scattershot play. Indy has stuck by the young signal-caller through his accuracy issues, but Colts fans have to wonder if the outcome might have been different if Joe Flacco had been under center on Sunday. 
3. Texans' D-line dominates. It was apropos that Will Anderson Jr. ended the game with the ball in his hands after a Danielle Hunter sack. The Texans generated a whopping 60.0% pressure rate, tied for the highest pressure rate by a defense in a game this season. The group pressured Richardson 24 times and sacked him five times. The QB completed 5 of his 17 attempts for 124 yards and a touchdown under pressure. Hunter was a STUD, earning 12 QB pressures and two sacks. Anderson earned seven QBPs, a sack, a game-ending fumble recovery and led the team with seven tackles. 

Next Gen Stats Insight for Colts-Texans (via NFL Pro): Joe Mixon generated +16 rush yards over expected, giving him +107 RYOE this season, ninth-most in the NFL. 

NFL Research: Anthony Richardson's 31.3 completion percentage was the second-lowest by any player in a single game with 30-plus pass attempts over the last 10 seasons. The only player worse was Josh Allen, also this season and also on the road against the Texans (30.0%). Richardson has the NFL's worst completion percentage in 2024 (44.4) and over the last two seasons (50.2, minimum 150 attempts).

• RE-WATCH: Packers-Jaguars on NFL+ Premium
• READ: Packers' Love leaves win early with groin injury

Nick Shook's takeaways:

1. Jacobs earns his check. It didn't take long in 2024 for Josh Jacobs to prove he was an upgrade in the backfield for the Packers, yet through seven weeks, Jacobs had only broken 100 rushing yards once (Week 2 against Indianapolis). That changed at the perfect time Sunday, as Jacobs became a workhorse after Jordan Love exited with an groin injury, carrying the ball on four straight snaps before popping off a 38-yard touchdown run up the middle a few plays later, putting the Packers back in front. Jacobs was a much-needed ground machine Sunday, finishing with 127 yards and two touchdowns on 25 carries, and the Love-less Packers needed all of it to outlast a scrappy Jaguars team.
2. Jaguars fight back ... only to crumble in the end. Trevor Lawrence accounted for two turnovers -- including an interception thrown immediately after the Jaguars had picked off Jordan Love -- and struggled with the rest of Jacksonville's offense through most of a quiet first half, but brought the whole unit to life with some sharp passing and a touchdown run before the break. He continued it in the second half, settling into a groove that was only interrupted by a fumble lost deep in his own territory that appeared set to doom the Jaguars. That's where Lawrence proved his mettle, though, bouncing back to lead two scoring drives, including an electric final drive that ended with a fantastic throw to Evan Engram, who leapt above a crowd of defenders to catch the game-tying touchdown. They'd fought all the way back in the game's final two minutes, but didn't finish the job on the defensive end, allowing Malik Willis to complete a huge pass to set up Green Bay's walk-off field goal. That's the story of the Jaguars this season: Close, but no cigar. This one will likely sting more than most.
3. Willis comes through again. Jordan Love suffered a groin injury fairly early Sunday that was clearly limiting his ability to extend plays and to throw with a firm base, and it was holding back Green Bay's offense. Eventually, he accepted the fact he was too injured to continue, clearing the way for backup Malik Willis to step in for him as he had earlier in the season. This time, the Packers didn't prepare a game plan around Willis' strengths, but the backup found a way to make it work, running four times for 23 yards and completing 4 of 5 passes for 56 yards and a touchdown. The scoring toss capitalized on a takeaway recorded deep in Jaguars territory, but it was Willis' one big throw -- a 51-yarder down the left sideline to Jayden Reed -- that lifted the Packers to a win that almost certainly seemed to be on the verge of slipping away. He didn't play more than a quarter and a half, but thanks in part to Jacobs' production, Willis was afforded a chance to push the Packers to a win and got the job done.

Next Gen Stats insight from Packers-Jaguars (via NFL Pro): Josh Jacobs was most productive rushing between the tackles, rushing 16 times for 99 yards and two touchdowns. Jacobs generated +36 rushing yards over expected on inside runs, his most in a game this season and third-most of his career.

NFL Research: Xavier McKinney recorded his career-high sixth interception Sunday, joining Trevon Diggs as the only players in the last 20 seasons to have six games with an interception in a team's first eight contests of a season. He's also the first player in Packers history to achieve the feat.

• RE-WATCH: Cardinals-Dolphins on NFL+ Premium

Coral Smith's takeaways:

1. Harrison, McBride key second-half comeback. The Cardinals are back up to .500 after Sunday’s come-from-behind win over the Dolphins, a victory that was in large part due to the return of the potent connection between Kyler Murray and his rookie wideout Marvin Harrison Jr., a pairing which had been relatively quiet since a 130-yard outing in Week 2 but became crucial in the second half Sunday. Harrison had two catches for 33 yards at halftime, with most of that coming on a 25-yard reception, but Murray turned to his star receiver often after the break as they worked toward the comeback win, with Harrison hauling in acrobatic catches in key moments. First it was a 22-yard touchdown, with Harrison reaching toward the corner of the end zone while just keeping his toes inbounds. That was followed by a diving catch that looked incomplete initially before being overturned on review and a leaping grab across the middle while being tackled by two defenders. Harrison finished with 111 receiving yards, averaging 18.5 yards per catch. But he wasn’t even the team’s leading receiver, a title that went to tight end Trey McBride, who exploded for 124 yards on nine catches, his second-highest career total. With the combined output of these two young pass-catchers, the Cardinals put together their first game with 300-plus passing yards in 2024.
2. Tua return a small victory for Fins. Though the defense struggled late in the game and gave up the win, Miami nevertheless should be pleased with what it saw on the other side of the ball, as the return of Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa brought with it the team’s best offensive outing of the season and its highest points total thus far. Tagovailoa looked healthy and the whole offense benefitted, coming alive under his leadership. A week after recording just two catches for 19 yards as a duo, Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle finished with 72 and 45 yards, respectively. De'Von Achane had a big game, rushing for a season-high 97 yards while tacking on six catches for 50 yards and a touchdown. The pass game understandably struggled behind backup QBs the last few weeks, but things looked better with Tagovailoa back. Maybe most importantly considering the concussion he’s returning from, Tagovailoa passed two major tests, taking an early sack with no ill effects and then later choosing to slide at the end of a scramble run in the third quarter, avoiding the kind of contact that took him out in Week 2. 
3. Cards’ new kicker come up clutch again. Of Arizona’s four wins this season, three have come via last-minute game-winning drive, with all three of those close victories coming via the leg of kicker Chad Ryland. Trailing by two with five minutes left in the game, Murray orchestrated a 13-play, 83-yard drive in which almost every major player had a key contribution, taking it down to one second left on the clock before calling up Ryland to put a 34-yard boot through the uprights. It was his second field goal of the day, converting on a 57-yarder in the third quarter. Ryland was signed by Arizona earlier this month after an injury to Matt Prater, and has earned his keep so far, turning things around after the significant consistency issues he faced as a rookie with the Patriots last season. Having not led for the first 59 minutes and 59 seconds of the game, the Cardinals again turned to Ryland to kick for the win for a third time, and he came through. 

Next Gen Stats insight from Cardinals-Dolphins (via NFL Pro): Trey McBride set season highs in targets (11), receptions (nine), receiving yards (124) and yards after catch (46) in Sunday’s win. McBride gained a majority of his receiving yards against linebacker David Long in coverage (five receptions for 68 yards on five targets).

NFL Research: Chad Ryland’s game-winning field goal was his third with under 2:00 remaining in a game in 2024, the most by any Cardinals kicker in a season since at least 2000.

• RE-WATCH: Jets-Patriots on NFL+ Premium
• READ: Patriots rookie QB Maye suffers concussion in win

Michael Baca's takeaways:

1. Brissett leads game-winning drive to end Pats' losing streak. There seemed to be a dark cloud hanging over Foxborough after Drake Maye's first-half exit, but a quality team effort allowed Jacoby Brissett to lead a 70-yard touchdown march late in the fourth quarter to topple their division foe. The game-winning drive was all Brissett, who converted two crucial third-and-longs with a 14-yard scramble and a 34-yard strike to Kayshon Boutte which set up Rhamondre Stevenson's TD run from the 1-yard line. Brissett did it all with little help from a receiving corps that was dropping passes all game, but there was help elsewhere. Marcus Jones' 62-yard punt return provided a short field for Brissett and Co. They'd find the end zone five plays later, which was a necessary confidence boost for a team that was reluctant to take chances during Maye's absence. The Patriots' bend-but-don't-break defense also kept the game within reach as Brissett tried to find a stride in relief. He'd finish 15-of-24 passing for 132 yards and no turnovers in a day-saving effort that included his first TD pass and ended New England's six-game losing streak.
2. Jets can't survive sloppy play. Calling Sunday's effort an unorganized mess wouldn't be unfair to a Jets offense that began the game struggling to even line up on time, earning a number of delay of game penalties that rendered the Jets rhythmless, and it could've been even worse (interim coach Jeff Ulbrich took all three first-half timeouts by the end of the first quarter). Aaron Rodgers, with the help of a few defensive penalties by the Patriots, was able to persevere through it with consecutive touchdown drives in the first half, but they were unable to step on the gas pedal even as New England was reeling from the loss of its starting QB. The miscues persisted in the second half, one being a Greg Zuerlein missed field goal from 44 yards out, which the Patriots turned into three points to take the lead on their ensuing drive. Rodgers led a 70-yard TD drive to take back the lead in the fourth quarter, but the Jets' disorganization would be officially bookended on Sunday after a delay of game pushed back their failed 2-point conversion, which would've made it a six-point lead. Cuts to a frustrated Rodgers on the sideline as the Jets gave up a methodical game-winning drive were a good way to paint the picture of the head-scratching defeat.
3. We're still waiting on Rodgers-Adams connection to make an impact. Rodgers was determined to get Davante Adams the ball in the early going, but the early penalties thwarted any real effort of establishing a rhythm. Adams, who ended the day with four catches for 54 yards (six targets), went missing throughout a large portion of the game, but Garrett Wilson rose to the occasion, hauling in a game-high five receptions for 113 yards. Even with a healthy rushing attack led by Breece Hall (80 yards off 16 attempts), the Jets were still unable to unleash the player brought in two weeks ago to quick-fix their offensive struggles. Instead, the losses -- five straight now -- are stacking, and Adams remains on a losing team that is digging itself in an even bigger hole.

Next Gen Stats Insight for Jets-Patriots (via NFL Pro): Drake Maye's top speed of 20.33 mph on his 17-yard TD run ties Jacoby Brissett (Week 3, 2016) for the fastest speed by a Patriots quarterback in the NGS era (since 2016). They are the only two plays by Patriots quarterbacks over 20 mph over the last nine seasons.

NFL Research: Jacoby Brissett is the first Patriots QB to lead a game-winning drive in relief since 1993, when Scott Secules led New England to victory on the road against the Cardinals.

• RE-WATCH: Falcons-Buccaneers on NFL+ Premium

Eric Edholm's takeaways:

1. Falcons hang on late in a game that shouldn’t have been so close. The Falcons took a 31-17 lead into the fourth quarter but stumbled late, allowing a safety, giving up a long touchdown drive, missing a late field goal and having the game come down to a Hail Mary attempt that nearly was caught. It wasn’t, and Atlanta survived another shootout thriller against the Bucs, but it wasn’t easy. The Falcons’ defense struggled early before settling down, forcing three straight turnovers in the second half, but it had to hold on for dear life late. This was a unit that was missing Justin Simmons, but the Bucs threw for 330 yards without their two top receivers playing. Baker Mayfield also wasn’t sacked in 50 dropbacks. But the Falcons got enough big plays defensively and on special teams to earn the win, with Jessie Bates and A.J. Terrell each grabbing terrific interceptions and KhaDarel Hodge, the overtime hero last time against the Bucs, alertly making a big tackle for loss on a fake punt. 
2. Bucs moved ball without top receivers, but defense came up empty. It was always going to be an uphill battle for the Buccaneers in a tough divisional game without wide receivers Mike Evans and Chris Godwin playing, but the Bucs’ offense moved the ball readily, even outgaining Atlanta, 432-394. The problem was three turnovers, with Mayfield giving up two on interceptions – both inside the Atlanta 10-yard line. On the first, he underthrew Ryan Miller on a flea flicker, with Mayfield perhaps slightly bobbling the ball before his pass. On the second INT, Terrell stepped in front of Mayfield’s pass for a huge turnover with the Bucs threatening to score. The Bucs’ first turnover helped the Falcons seize early control of the game, with Rachaad White coughing it up less than a minute into the game, with Atlanta scoring four plays later. Mayfield did his best to rally the Bucs, but the defense struggled to make early stops and generate much pass rush, and had some bad luck when Kyle Pitts' TD stood up even when it looked like Antoine Winfield Jr. might have knocked the ball loose prior to the end zone.
3. The Falcons move to the head of the division. At 5-3, the Falcons are in decent shape now, improving to 3-0 on the road and 4-0 in the division, having beaten the Bucs for a second time this season. Considering these two teams look like the primary contenders in the NFC South, that’s no small achievement, even if the Falcons insisted on keeping the door open. Kirk Cousins was ripping the Bucs, and he completed all nine second-half pass attempts, but the offense bogged down after halftime. Three big penalties negated important gains, including holds by wide receivers that wiped out a 15-yard gain and a 36-yard Bijan Robinson TD. A late facemask call made Younghoe Koo’s missed field-goal try a lot longer than it should have been. Cousins picked up 13 yards on a late scramble and converted his first first down of the season as a runner on fourth down late, but the Falcons need to tighten up the entire operation to be considered a top-tier contender. 

Next Gen Stats Insight for Falcons-Buccaneers (via NFL Pro): Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton caught nine of his 10 targets for 81 yards and two touchdowns in Week 8 against the Falcons, recording a season-high 23.8% target rate. Otton amassed the majority of his production from the slot, hauling in all five of his targets for 48 yards and a touchdown from such an alignment. Otton caught eight of his nine receptions and gained 78 of his 81 receiving yards and both of his touchdowns on short targets (0-9 air yards).

NFL Research: Week 8 was the Falcons' sixth game this season that has been decided by one possession. Kirk Cousins is 18-6 in one-possession games since 2022, including going 4-2 with Atlanta.

• RE-WATCH: Eagles-Bengals on NFL+ Premium

Eric Edholm's takeaways:

1. Eagles hot again after third straight victory. The Eagles have looked like a different team since the bye, with their defensive improvement leading the way. The Bengals gained 175 yards on their first three drives, but they missed a field goal on the third drive to keep it a one-score game. After the Eagles’ offense warmed up, the defense took over in the third quarter, in spite of cornerback Darius Slay (groin) leaving the game. After the Eagles took a 24-17 lead, they stopped the Bengals on fourth down, with rookie Cooper DeJean tackling Ja'Marr Chase for a loss. That was followed by a terrific interception from Chauncey Gardner-Johnson, with a big assist from Isaiah Rodgers, who tipped the pass straight to his teammates. Believe it or not, that was the Eagles’ first takeaway since Week 3 and only their third of the season. Turnover No. 4 came on the next series when Zack Baun knocked the ball loose from Mike Gesicki, which led to an insurance field goal from the Eagles. Things looked dicey early as the Bengals nickeled and dimed their way down the field, but the Eagles rallied well and had their best defensive showing against a top offense this season.
2. Bengals' start fast but fade quickly, with the season slipping away. The Bengals fell to 0-4 in Cincinnati this season and 3-5 overall, leading 10-3 early and controlling the clock but unable to keep the momentum alive. A missed field goal and three turnovers (one on downs) on offense stung hard, and Cincinnati’s defense allowed the Eagles to score on six straight possessions starting in the second quarter and running through the end of the game. Losing Orlando Brown mid-game to injury hurt the Bengals’ blocking; Brown’s replacement, Cody Ford, held his own, but Joe Burrow faced more pressure and had only 65 second-half pass yards, plus the interception. On the flip side, Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts had all day to throw, with hardly any pressure from the Bengals. Hurts was a perfect 9 of 9 for 150 yards and a TD pass after halftime and finished with three rushing TDs. 
3. Eagles offense deserves praise, too. This game wasn’t all about the Eagles’ defense. After finding themselves in an early hole -- and their eighth straight scoreless first quarter on offense to start the season -- Hurts and the Eagles' big dogs came through. Hurts threw for a score and ran in three more TDs, with only four incompletions on the day, which all came in the first quarter. DeVonta Smith caught Hurts’ lone TD pass, a gorgeous over-the-shoulder throw and catch. A.J. Brown and Grant Calcaterra also came up big in the pass game. Saquon Barkley grew stronger as the game wore on, too, with 73 second-half yards. For a team missing three offensive starters (Jordan Mailata, Mekhi Becton, Dallas Goedert), the Eagles found their rhythm offensively after another slow start to score 27 points after halftime, which is more than they’ve scored in four entire games this season. 

Next Gen Stats Insight for Eagles-Bengals (via NFL Pro): Eagles left tackle Fred Johnson allowed only one pressure on 22 pass-blocking snaps (4.5%), his lowest pressure rate allowed this season. Johnson allowed one pressure to the Bengals’ Trey Hendrickson on 13 matchups (7.7%), the second-lowest pressure rate allowed to Hendrickson by any offensive lineman this season (minimum five matchups).

NFL Research: Hurts had his first career game with three or more rushing TDs and one or more passing TDs. He’s the 13th player to achieve that in a regular-season game and the first since Taysom Hill (Week 5, 2022).
