Carolina Panthers Stun Los Angeles Rams as Buffalo Bills' Josh Allen Sets Touchdown Record
In a stunning upset, the Carolina Panthers forced three turnovers by Matthew Stafford and intercepted him twice to snap the Los Angeles Rams' six-game winning streak. The Panthers also tipped a ball resulting in one of Stafford's first pick, with Derrick Brown coming up with a key strip-sack with 2:25 left in the game to preserve the win. The Rams had been on a roll, but the Panthers' defense proved too much for them.
Meanwhile, the Buffalo Bills bounced back from a loss at Houston by pushing around the Pittsburgh Steelers. Josh Allen threw for a touchdown and ran for another, and Joey Bosa sacked Aaron Rodgers to spring Christian Benford for a game-tilting, 17-yard scoop-and-score. The Bills piled up 249 yards on the ground and controlled the clock for nearly 42 minutes.
The Houston Texans also got back in the division race with a win over the Indianapolis Colts. With quarterback CJ Stroud back in the lineup, the two-time defending South champion Texans got back in the division race. Stroud completed 22 of 35 passes for 276 yards and one interception, and Nico Collins caught five passes for 98 yards and ran for a score.
The San Francisco 49ers spoiled Shedeur Sanders' first home start for the Cleveland Browns, but Brock Purdy struggled to find his rhythm. The 49ers scored 19 unanswered points after trailing in the second quarter and capitalized on turnovers and a long punt return.
In a surprising shutout win, the Seattle Seahawks dominated the Minnesota Vikings. Ernest Jones IV had the first of five takeaways by the Seahawks' dominant defense. The Seahawks moved into a first-place tie with the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC West.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers snapped a three-game skid with victory over the Arizona Cardinals, but Baker Mayfield was forced to sit out the second half due to a left shoulder injury. Justin Herbert threw two touchdown passes while playing through an injury to his non-throwing hand, and Kimani Vidal made a 59-yard scoring run during the Los Angeles Chargers' victory.
The Jacksonville Jaguars moved into a tie with the Indianapolis Colts atop the AFC South heading into the first of two matchups between the teams next week. Trevor Lawrence threw for 229 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Jaguars to a 25-3 win over the Tennessee Titans.
Finally, the Miami Dolphins won their third straight game by holding off the New Orleans Saints. De'Von Achane rushed for 134 yards and a touchdown, Riley Patterson kicked four field goals, and Tua Tagovailoa completed just 12 of 23 passes for 157 yards with an interception.

he set a touchdown record lol. i'm all about the buffalo bills right now, they're lookin good to take the division title. and btw the seattle seahawks just shut out the minnesota vikings 
what's goin on with the nfl this season tho?
. i mean who saw the Panthers taking down the Rams like that? Matthew Stafford's got to be thinking 'what just happened?' 
. but for real tho, can't wait to see how these teams continue to play out in the playoffs 
. maybe we'll even get some upsets like the Panthers' upset 
.
, like he's having an epic season but still gotta see if he can keep it up in the playoffs. And yeah, Carolina Panthers played a solid game against LA Rams, their defense was 
meanwhile Josh Allen is like the superhero of buffalo bills 
anyone can see he's got game and he's breaking all those records. 249 yards on the ground for the bills, that's insane! 
CJ Stroud getting back in form for the texans is definitely a plus 
. They're definitely getting back into division contention. And that San Francisco 49ers' turnaround is crazy 
That defense is on point! Ernest Jones IV getting five takeaways? Genius coaching right there.
. Justin Herbert playing through an injury, Kimani Vidal making that 59-yard scoring run... and Baker Mayfield going down with a shoulder injury? Tough break for him 
.
. And those Dolphins holding off New Orleans Saints? Tua Tagovailoa's game manager vibes 
.
.
! Kimani Vidal's 59-yard run? What a play 
!
. They've been on that six-game winning streak for too long. But I do think they'll bounce back 
! Ernest Jones IV's five takeaways? That's some serious shut-it-down 
!
they totally shut down the Rams' offense and got that big turnover to seal the deal. And Josh Allen's touchdown record? 
and the Texans, who finally got back in the division race with CJ Stroud under center
