  • Rewatch: 49ers-Rams

Why you should rewatch:

Los Angeles’ come-from-behind win featured an ending that likely made Hollywood scriptwriters blush. Down with 4:14 remaining in regulation and the 49ers driving, the Rams’ win probability stood at a measly 3.2%, per Next Gen Stats. And yet six plays from scrimmage later, Sean McVay’s squad emerged victorious. With a slew of stars out for both NFC West rivals, it was up to each team’s supporting cast to steal the spotlight. Niners wide receiver Jauan Jennings, who notched a career-high 175 receiving yards and three touchdowns, answered the call albeit in a losing effort. (Check out this All-22 playlist of each of Jennings’ 11 receptions here).

2) Philadelphia Eagles 15, New Orleans Saints 12

  • Rewatch: Eagles-Saints

Why you should rewatch:

Philadelphia grinded out the type of win it needed to jump start its season. The Eagles needed a spark with A.J. Brown inactive and DeVonta Smith ruled out after a second-half concussion. Enter Saquon Barkley. His game-changing impact was once again on full display, as he scored both of the Birds’ touchdowns. Barkley laced up his track shoes for a 65-yard burner on his first score, but it was his second that made the difference. With 1:01 remaining in the game, Barkley punched in a go-ahead TD and followed that up with a successful two-point conversion. Philly’s newest star RB has scored five of the team’s eight touchdowns this season and gained +87 rushing yards over expected on Sunday (good for second-most in his career), per Next Gen Stats. The Eagles defense also appeared to turn a corner, holding a red-hot Saints offense to just 12 points and making things hard for Derek Carr in the Big Easy.

3) Baltimore Ravens 28, Dallas Cowboys 25

  • Rewatch: Ravens-Cowboys

Why you should rewatch:

This game almost featured the top comeback of the young season. Down 28-6 with under nine minutes to play, the Cowboys rattled off 19 straight points to give themselves a chance against a Baltimore squad that desperately needed to avoid its first 0-3 start since 2015. Included in that sequence was a successful onside kick recovery, the 2024 NFL season’s first. But past decisions came back to haunt the Cowboys in Week 3. Ravens running back Derrick Henry, who tabbed Dallas as his “perfect situation” this offseason before signing with Baltimore, had a monster outing. Henry went off for 151 yards and two rushing TDs, forcing 12 missed tackles (second-most by a player in a game this season), in the process. All hail King Henry.

4) Washington Commanders 38, Cincinnati Bengals 33

  • Rewatch: Commanders-Bengals

Why you should rewatch:

Jayden Daniels has arrived -- and he did so in style on Monday. The No. 2 overall pick’s three-touchdown performance lifted Washington to an upset victory and kept Cincinnati winless. Both teams put on an offensive clinic as the contest marked the first NFL game since 1940 to not feature a single punt or turnover. After Bengals cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt said Commanders OC Kliff Kingsbury was implementing a “nice college offense,” Daniels proved he could go toe-to-toe with an elite QB like Joe Burrow, another LSU quarterback who took home the Heisman, on a national stage. To cap his breakout night, Daniels' fourth-quarter TD dime to Terry McLaurin had a completion probability of 10.3%, the most improbable score of the 2024 season so far, per Next Gen Stats.

5) Kansas City Chiefs 22, Atlanta Falcons 17

  • Rewatch: Chiefs-Falcons

Why you should rewatch:

The Chiefs always find a way. Without wide receiver Marquise Brown (shoulder) and running back Isiah Pacheco, Kansas City had to adjust its approach on Sunday Night Football. That meant a heavy dose of Rashee Rice and a reliance on Steve Spagnuolo’s championship-caliber defense. Rice, who has racked up an NFL-best 200 YAC this year, established himself as a safety blanket for Patrick Mahomes early and burned Atlanta’s defense for 110 receiving yards in prime time. Meanwhile, Kansas City held Bijan Robinson to just 1.9 rushing yards per attempt and registered a crucial fourth-down stuff to effectively seal the game late. Even while undermanned in a hostile environment the Chiefs found a way to stay undefeated.
