Who Looked the Best

|---|---|
|
Josh Allen scored five touchdowns as the Bills outlasted Detroit 41–31 on Thursday Night Football, improving to 2–0. |
|
Joe Burrow went 20-of-31 for 207 yards and two touchdowns, and Ja’Marr Chase added two scores of his own (7 catches, 75 yards) as Cincinnati’s defense shut down Houston 20–6. |
|
Bo Nix (22-of-31, 288 yards, one touchdown) rallied the Broncos from a 10-point deficit to beat Jacksonville 20–13. |
|

|
Matthew Stafford threw four touchdown passes and Kyren Williams powered the ground game as the Rams rolled past the Giants 28–6 on Monday Night Football, with Davante Adams stepping up in Puka Nacua’s absence. |
Who Surprised
| Team | Notes |
|---|---|
|
Tyler Shough’s touchdown pass to Chris Olave helped New Orleans knock off Baltimore 24–17, a result few saw coming against a Ravens team many had pegged as a contender. |
|

Who Disappointed
| Team | Notes |
|---|---|
|
Tampa Bay fell to 0–2 after a 23–19 home loss to Cleveland, unable to find answers against a Browns team picked to struggle this year. |
|
A week after putting up 31 points against Buffalo, the Texans managed just 6 in a 20–6 loss to Cincinnati, dropping to 0–2. |
|
The Chargers fell 26–14 to the Raiders after a late fumble handed Las Vegas a short field, opening the season 0–2 for the first time since 2023 — their second straight disappointing week. |
Keep Your Head High
| Team | Notes |
|---|---|
|
Jonathan Taylor ran for 132 yards and two touchdowns, but Indianapolis came up just short in a 33–30 shootout loss at Kansas City. |
|
Geno Smith threw for 247 yards and two scores and the defense forced four fumbles, but the Jets blew a fourth-quarter lead and fell 20–17 in overtime to Green Bay. |
|
The Titans forced two interceptions and sacked Jalen Hurts three times, tying the game in the third quarter before falling 24–20 to Philadelphia. |
