It's time for another new feature. One that may or may not continue.

It's a recap of Sunday's games with our brief analysis of the contest, PFT style. It's in addition to the many other blurbs we'll be publishing; For example, on Sunday alone we published 97 articles.

Here's another one for a football Monday, with the biggest takeaway or whatever caught my eye at each game.

Jaguars 32, Patriots 16

The Jaguars went down 10-0 early and fought their way back against perhaps the worst team in the league. After the 32-16 loss, New England coach Jerod Mayo said the Patriots were “a soft team all the way.”

With Travis Etienne inactive, running back Tank Bigsby recorded 118 rushing yards and two touchdowns for the Jaguars. Parker Washington's ill-advised but well-executed 96-yard punt return for a touchdown became a dagger.

Jaguars coach Doug Pederson was able to escape the sword with a win for the time being. It won't get much easier for Jacksonville than it is today. It definitely won't be next week; The Packers are coming to town.

Seahawks 34, Falcons 14

The Seahawks needed to reverse a three-game losing streak, and they did. After the game, quarterback Geno Smith told PFT that overtime helped the Seahawks recover mentally and physically after Thursday night's loss to the 49ers.

Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr. made his NFL debut in garbage time after Kirk Cousins ​​had three turnovers.

Seahawks receiver DK Metcalf was forced out of the game with a knee injury, but the team is optimistic it's not a long-term thing.

Ultimately, it was a missed opportunity for Atlanta in a two-team race in the NFC South. For the Seahawks, this means a chance to take over the lead of the NFC West.

Bills 34, Titans 10

In Josh Allen's 100th career start, the Bills trailed 10-0 before waking up. And they woke up great, scoring 34 unanswered points.

Days after arriving via trade from the Browns, receiver Amari Cooper had four catches for 66 yards and a touchdown. Allen told PFT after the game that Cooper had put in a ton of extra work – and that the defense now faces the decision of “picking their poison” when deciding whether to shift extra coverage in Cooper's favor.

When they do, Allen throws somewhere else. If not, Allen throws it to him.

Sometimes football can be so simple.

Bengals 21, Browns 14

Cincinnati Meat-and-Potato took the win. The result was overshadowed by Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson's likely season-ending Achilles tendon injury.

Dorian Thompson-Robinson initially came into the game in place of Watson as Jameis Winston was strangely demoted to No. 3. Winston left the game after DTR suffered an injury. It's unknown whether Winston or Thompson-Robinson will play against the Ravens next week.

It is known that despite Watson's absence for the remainder of 2024, the Browns have a major problem with Watson's contract in 2025 and 2026.

Packers 24, Texans 22

In his first game with the Packers after resolving a sexual assault lawsuit that effectively closed the door on potential league discipline, kicker Brandon McManus kicked the game-winning field goal from 45 yards.

The Packers held Texas quarterback CJ Stroud to 86 passing yards, nearly 30 fewer than running back Joe Mixon's 115 rushing yards. This helped Green Bay overcome a minus-3 turnover differential.

Packers running back Josh Jacobs scored the first receiving touchdown of his career in the third quarter, giving the Packers a 21-19 lead.

Colts 16, Dolphins 10

The Dolphins are expected to bring back quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. And they need him.

They trailed 4-2 in Indy on Sunday with Tyler Huntley injured and Tim Boyle replacing him. Even though it was a one-score game, there was a feeling that the Dolphins were overmatched.

A catch for eight yards for Tyreek Hill isn't good enough. A catch for 11 yards isn't good enough for Jaylen Waddle. If things don't improve soon, the Dolphins don't have to worry about losing in the wild card round.

The Colts are currently in the thick of things at 4-3. And they're still waiting for running back Jonathan Taylor to get healthy.

Lions 31, Vikings 29

Jared Goff continues his historic run for an offense that can't be stopped; He is the fourth quarterback in league history to post a passer rating of 140.0 or higher in three straight games. The Vikings did their best to overcome a second-half deficit and took a late lead.

But no lead is safe against the Lions, especially not a point lead. What mattered for Minnesota was that with the score at 29:28 at the end of the fourth quarter, they were unable to score a third and fourth goal. That gave the Lions one last chance to win the game – and they did.

Now the Vikings must quickly forget their first loss and prepare for a week-long visit to the Rams.

Eagles 28, Giants 3

The Eagles have won two straight games for the first time since their loss to the 49ers last December. But they won't be playing the Browns and Giants on a regular basis. And they need more from their passing game.

That wasn't a problem on Sunday, as running back Saquon Barkley posted 176 rushing yards on just 17 carries. It was the second-most rushing yards ever by a player against his former team.

And he gets another attack on her. In Week 18. Until then it's the Bengals, Ravens and Steelers – and it's the Commanders twice and the Cowboys twice.

In other words, the Eagles still have a lot of work to do.

It would be nice to get a point in the first quarter. They don't do that once a year.

Commander 40, Panther 7

The Panthers are worse than any other team in a long time. Even though Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels was injured, the Panthers had no chance.

It's unclear what they need to do. But chaotic owner David Tepper gets the chaos he deserves.

The commanders are legitimate candidates. They're going to need Daniels back as soon as possible. As explained during Football night in AmericaConcern over his rib injury is a three or four on a scale of one to ten.

It could be worse. The commanders could be the Panthers, where the concern level is generally 1,000.

Rams 20, Raiders 15

A win is a win is a win, but a five-point win over a Raiders team that doesn't seem to have much firepower offensively isn't the kind of win that will turn things around for the Rams.

The Raiders outgained the Rams by nearly 60 yards. Running back Kyren Williams, who scored twice, had just 76 rushing yards on 21 carries. Matthew Stafford's passer rating was a paltry 62.6.

The bigger test for LA comes Thursday evening. If you topple the Vikings at 5-1, the Rams could be in business. If they lose to Minnesota, it might be time for the Rams to enter the trade business.

Chiefs 28, 49ers 18

It's still not pretty. It continues to produce results.

The Chiefs have become a defensive team with a good (if any) offense, winning six straight games to start the season.

It helps to have quarterback Patrick Mahomes, even if he isn't playing like he ever has. He still knows when it's time to make a big appearance, and he knows it.

The 49ers, on the other hand, can't keep their cool. They've had too many injuries and they're getting more and more. Your prodigy quarterback suddenly isn't so wonderful anymore. They need to start winning soon or they won't have to worry about facing the Chiefs again in February. Or any opponent in the postseason.

Steelers 37, Jets 15

Maybe Mike Tomlin knows what he's doing.

He told Jay Glazer that he was a “Lone Ranger” in the decision to start Russell Wilson. Unlike the Lone Ranger, Tomlin has much more firepower than Tonto.

It started slow and looked rough. But the Steelers calmed down and reeled off 31 straight points after falling behind 15-6.

They do it as they always do. Tough, opportunistic defense. Offensive player with a knack for making big plays at the right moment. And special teams that can make a difference, this time by blocking a field goal while the game was still in limbo.

It's amazing that the Jets were favored. People are always waiting for them to show up. As with the Great Pumpkin, at some point it might be wise to accept that this is not the case.
