The Detroit Lions scored 47 points against a disheartened Dallas Cowboys team that suffered yet another home defeat, while the Tampa Bay Buccaneers scored 51 points against the New Orleans Saints.
Jordan Love’s Green Bay Packers are warming up well on both sides of the ball, and CJ Stroud’s Houston Texans are cruising along at 5-1 following a third consecutive victory.
With victories against the struggling Carolina Panthers and Las Vegas Raiders, respectively, the Atlanta Falcons and Pittsburgh Steelers both climbed to 4-2.
Jackson prevails in the Daniels match.
Jackson has been compared to Washington’s rookie sensation Daniels, but the two-time MVP emerged victorious as the Ravens defeated the Commanders 30-23 in Baltimore.
In an equal game, Daniels more than held his own while Jackson had 323 passing yards and a touchdown and Daniels threw for a season-high 269 yards and two scores. Both players made plays with their legs.
However, Washington was unable to match Derrick Henry, who made the difference with 132 rushing yards and two touchdowns, making Baltimore the first team to reach 150 yards or more in 1971.
