Key Headlines:

No Henry, no problem for the Titans

The impressive Titans took a blow to their offense when it was announced that Derrick Henry would have a season-ending injury. Some believed the Rams would be able to win this match based off their recent success, and with a hurt Tennessee Titans offense, but the Tennessee defense came up big. Kevin Byard’s pick-six in the 2nd quarter helped the Titans get the victory, making them 7-2.

The Bills can’t get anything going against the Jaguars

The Bills, one of the highest scoring offenses in the NFL, could only muster up 6 points against the Jaguars, who haven’t been having the best season so far. The low scoring outcome was helped by defender Josh Allen, who sacked, caught an interception, and recovered a fumble. Josh Allen made Josh Allen’s day a nightmare.

Broncos dominate the Cowboys, ending their streak

The Broncos have been having a decent season, starting undefeated but beginning to fall. On the other side, the Cowboys had been on a 7 game winning streak. That didn’t matter to the Broncos, who held the cowboys to 0 points through 3 quarters.
