Lions 47, Cowboys 9 – Jared Goff throws 3 TD passes, Lions win 47-9 and hand Cowboys another lopsided home loss
Jared Goff threw for 315 yards and three touchdowns after his completion streak ended on his first throw, and the Detroit Lions blew out Dallas 47-9. It was a fourth consecutive lopsided loss at home for the Cowboys. David Montgomery had two rushing TDs for the Lions. Detroit lost pass rusher Aidan Hutchinson to an injury to his left tibia that will require surgery. Dak Prescott threw two interceptions in the worst home loss since 1988 for the Cowboys. Dallas is 0-3 at home and 3-0 on the road.  Detroit led 27-6 at the break, putting the combined total of the Dallas halftime deficit at AT&T Stadium at 110-35 going back to a wild-card playoff loss to Green Bay in January.  Sam LaPorta had a 52-yard touchdown catch on a trick play when he was wide open after Goff pitched to Montgomery, who then pitched on a reverse to Amon-Ra St. Brown, who got it back to Goff for the deep throw.  After Goff’s 37-yard scoring toss to Jameson Williams for a 34-6 lead early in the third quarter, “Let’s go Lions” chants broke out.

Bears 35, Jaguars 16 – Williams throws 4 TDs and TE Kmet handles long snaps for Bears in 35-16 rout of Jaguars
Caleb Williams threw four touchdown passes — two each to receiver Keenan Allen and tight end Cole Kmet — and the Chicago Bears held a tea party celebration in the end zone in a 35-16 rout of the Jacksonville Jaguars at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. Along with the rookie quarterback’s big day, Kmet chipped in by handling emergency long-snapping duties as the Bears (4-2) won their third straight game for the first time in nearly four years. The Jags fell to 1-5.  Williams, the No. 1 pick in this year’s NFL draft, finished 23 of 29 for 226 yards with the four TD passes and one interception. He picked up 56 yards on four carries.  Kmet had five receptions for 70 yards. Swift ran 17 times for 91 yards.  It’s Chicago’s first three-game winning streak since late in the 2020 season.

Colts 20, Titans 17 – Joe Flacco throws two TD passes as the battered Colts beat the Titans 20-17
Joe Flacco threw for 189 yards and two touchdowns, leading the Indianapolis Colts to a 20-17 win Sunday over the Tennessee Titans. The Colts got a much-needed split of back-to-back road games inside the AFC South with second-year quarterback Anthony Richardson scratched again with an injured right hip. The battered Colts also had 2021 NFL rushing champ Jonathan Taylor out for a second straight game. The Titans (1-4) now have lost three straight to their division rival. They will have to wait until November to try and win their first home game this season for first-year coach Brian Callahan.

NFL – Lions pass rusher Hutchinson needs surgery after injury to left tibia vs. Cowboys
Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson was carted off the field with a serious injury to his left tibia on a sack of Dallas’ Dak Prescott. Lions coach Dan Campbell said after Sunday’s 47-9 win over the Cowboys that Hutchinson will stay in the Dallas area for surgery. Hutchinson’s leg appeared to snap above the ankle when it collided with the left leg of teammate Alim McNeill as Hutchinson was pulling Prescott down in the third quarter. There was a delay of about 10 minutes as medical personnel tended to Hutchinson while players from both teams made a large circle around him.
