Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler completed a short pass to wide receiver Rashid Shaheed, who had the ball punched out by Buccaneers cornerback Jamel Dean when the wide receiver turned upfield. Antoine Winfield Jr. scooped the ball up and raced nearly 50 yards for what looked like a touchdown that would have given Tampa Bay a two-score lead.

With a trio of touchdowns and a receiving yard total that went over the century mark, Bowers had his way with the visiting Jacksonville Jaguars. While the hometown Raiders might've lost in overtime, their star tight end gave Vegas a reason to smile at the offense for the first time in a long time.

The NFC West didn't see their Week 7 action end until late Monday night, as the Seattle Seahawks played the final game of the week against the Houston Texans. Nothing changed in the standings, as three of the teams won their games, while the Arizona Cardinals lost their fifth consecutive game and remained in last place.

While keeping a positive game script, the Bills out-physicaled the Chiefs and won the line of scrimmage. Running back James Cook went over 100 yards, and establishing that helped Bills quarterback Josh Allen gash the Chiefs defense on another of its weak points this season: play action.

Sam Darnold had a perfect first half against the Commanders, going 16 of 16 for 284 yards and four touchdowns in the first two quarters of Seattle's 38-14 win. Darnold is the only QB over the past 35 years to complete 100% of his passes for at least 250 passing yards and four passing touchdowns in a single half.

The Sunday afternoon slate for Week 9 is headlined by two big AFC matchups with playoff implications. In the early afternoon window, it's two first-place teams facing off when the Indianapolis Colts (7-1) head to Pittsburgh (4-3) for a showdown with the Steelers.
