Week 3 kicked off with the Cleveland Browns defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers. You can read more about that game here. We saw more one-possession games in Week 3, as the NFL remains as competitive as it has been for some time.

In an extremely rare week, the top three quarterbacks in the league – Justin Herbert, Josh Allen, and Patrick Mahomes – could not lead their teams to wins this week, as the underdog teams prevailed.

Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady dueled for potentially the final time unless they meet again during the postseason, with Rodgers getting the better of that match. The Jacksonville Jaguars pulled off the upset and defeated the Chargers in Los Angeles. Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (rib cartilage) played through his injury, but the team had too many important players injured, including two critical injuries during Week 3 – Joey Bosa and Rashawn Slater. The Miami Dolphins remain undefeated, and the Colts pulled off a major upset against the Chiefs.
