Week 8 is over, without a bye and fourteen games on Sunday.

Here’s our recap of each of the players from the game on the fourth and final Sunday of October. Also known as National Tight Ends Day.

Eagles 37, Bengals 17

The Eagles push their winning streak to three as their offense continues to find its identity. Even if the identity is developed week by week, based on what works.

Everything has been working lately.

In Sunday’s 37-point outburst, quarterback Jalen Hurts became the first player in league history with multiple rushing touchdowns and a passer rating of 100 or higher in consecutive games.

Two came on the push punch. When I spoke to him by phone after the win, I said the patented game is back. “It never went anywhere,” Hurts insisted.

For the Bengals, quarterback Joe Burrow finished his 60th game with 112 touchdown passes. He has the fourth-most first 60 games total of any player, behind only Dan Marino (145), Patrick Mahomes (144) and Justin Herbert (114).

The most disturbing number is four. The Bengals are 0-4 at home this year.

Brown 29, Raven 24

The Jameis Winston era started in a big, big way. He threw for 334 yards; Deshaun Watson never had a 300-yard day during his time in Cleveland.

Winston’s authentic enthusiasm lifted the entire team. Even though it won’t be enough to turn 2-6 into a playoff berth (and maybe it will), it will make Browns games something they still need to be this season: fun.

For Ravens, the fun temporarily ended with five straight wins. Still, Derrick Henry became the first player in league history to score a touchdown in each of his first eight games with a team.

Lions 52, Titans 14

Yes, it was the Titans. But the outcome is impressive regardless of the opponent, a sign of a juggernaut. And they seem to be getting better and better.

Receiver Kalif Raymond, who had 190 return yards and two total scores, told PFT by phone after the game that the improvement is partly due to receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown’s obsession with practicing at a high level.

They are playing at a higher level than they have in years. Detroit is 6-1 for the first time since 1956.

And they did it when quarterback Jared Goff threw just 15 passes, completing 12 of them for 85 yards and three touchdowns.

Texans 23, Colts 20

Houston held on to complete the sweep of the Colts and take control of the AFC South.

Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson completed 10 of 32 passes for 175 yards, a touchdown and an interception. Running back Jonathan Taylor rushed for 105 yards and a touchdown in his return from an ankle injury.

Texans receiver Stefon Diggs left after a non-contact knee injury. Coach DeMeco Ryans did not have an update after the game. However, it didn’t look good.

Packers 30, Jaguars 27

For the second week in a row, Packers kicker Brandon McManus won the game with a walk-off field goal. This came at the end of a drive engineered by quarterback Malik Willis, who replaced Jordan Love in the second half.

Love has a groin injury. There will be an MRI on Monday. There is hope that it is a weekly injury from which he can recover next weekend.

The Jaguars lost receiver Christian Kirk before the season to a broken collarbone. Before the injury, he had been the subject of trade talks.

Cardinals 28, Dolphins 27

Tua Tagovailoa’s return shouldn’t have gone this way. Because Kyler Murray didn’t get the memo; he brought the Cardinals back from a nine-point deficit in the fourth quarter, mainly with his throws. A key run on third extended the winning drive.

At 4-4, the Cardinals are now tied at three atop the NFC West.

The Dolphins have fallen to 2-5. They’re going to Buffalo next weekend.

Patriots 25, Jets 22

Woody wanted it. Woody got it. Firing the coach of a 2-3 team six days before a Monday night home game extended the two-game losing streak to five. And while they’re not done yet, a visit from the Texans is looming for Halloween night.

Trick or treat. Smell my feet. Give Rex a damn snack.

The Patriots lost quarterback Drake Maye to a concussion. They still responded well when coach Jerod Mayo called him “soft.” While the playoffs remain a gamble, putting another nail in the Jets’ coffin will have to be the next best thing.

Falcons 31, Buccaneers 26

Kirk Cousins ​​had four touchdown passes and a passer rating of 145.9. He has eight touchdown passes in two games against Tampa Bay this season.

Without their top two receivers, the Bucs tried to mount an offense without Mike Evans or Chris Godwin. They did, but ultimately not enough. And now they’re 4-4, and given Atlanta’s sweep, two games behind in the race for the NFC South crown.

Chargers 26, Saints 8

LA moved to 4-3 with a win against the overmatched Saints, who are still without starting quarterback Derek Carr. New Orleans scored two field goals on offense in their second straight game against an AFC West team that never felt close.

Rookie Ladd McConkey had eight catches for 111 yards and two touchdowns for the Chargers, who found the end zone three times after settling for five field goals in a loss on Monday night.

Meanwhile, Saints defensive lineman Nathan Shepherd should be suspended for his WWE/Bountygate-style attempt to injure Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert. If the NFL is serious about player health and safety, he will be too.

Bills 31, Seahawks 10

Buffalo continued its dominance of the AFC East. At 6-2 and with the Dolphins 2-5 and the Patriots and Jets 2-6, it would take an epic collapse for the Bills to blow the division crown.

Amari Cooper had just one catch for three yards in his second game with the Bills, but Khalil Shakir had 107 yards and rookie Keon Coleman added 70 and a touchdown. James Cook rushed for 111 yards and two touchdowns.

Seattle running back Kenneth Walker III was held to 12 yards on nine carries, and the passing game felt the absence of DK Metcalf, who has a knee injury.

Broncos 28, Panthers 14

Denver continues to chase its first playoff berth since winning Super Bowl 50, feasting on a buffet of the NFC South’s worst teams. Panthers cornerback Jaycee Horn took exception to Broncos coach Sean Payton seemingly running up the score. Payton rubbed a little salt in the wound after the game by stating the obvious: Carolina’s offense is just not good.

Bo Nix set the franchise rookie record for quarterback wins with five, surpassing John Elway and Drew Lock, who each had four.

Leaders 27, Raiders 20

Kansas City has now won thirteen straight games since a New Year’s Eve victory over the Bengals. And the Chiefs are 6-0 at Allegiant Stadium, with five wins over the Raiders and one in Super Bowl LVIII.

With 81, quarterback Patrick Mahomes ranks third on the list of quarterback wins through the first eight years of his career. He needs five to catch Tom Brady and Russell Wilson, who are tied at 86. Mahomes has 10 games left to get there.

Commanders 18, Bears 15

Jayden Daniels shook off a rib injury and a late Bears lead to throw a Hail Mary for the ages, gaining nearly 13 seconds of time before launching the game winner, which was tipped by Bears defenseman Tyrique Stevenson and caught by Commander’s Receiver Noah Brown.

Stevenson was seen taunting Commanders fans before – and during – the play.

The loss dropped the 4-3 Bears into the cellar of the NFC North. And it puts pressure on Bears coach Matt Eberflus, who didn’t have his team ready for the fateful Hail Mary.

49ers 30, Cowboys 24

Dallas took an early 10-point lead, the 49ers overpowered them, and then the Cowboys tried to make things interesting.

Rookie running back Isaac Guerendo had 85 rushing yards and his first career touchdown while filling in for Jordan Mason, who suffered a shoulder injury.

George Kittle had six catches for 128 yards and a touchdown, bowing out on National Tights End Day.

For Dallas, CeeDee Lamb had 146 receiving yards and two touchdowns. But the Dallas running game continued to miss punch, gaining 56 yards. San Francisco ran for 223.

Next up for the Cowboys, a trip to Atlanta – and a Mike Zimmer-Kirk Cousins ​​reunion. We like that.
