The National Football League wrapped up its Week 5 schedule on Monday Night. The final game went to the Las Vegas Raiders, as they won at home over the Green Bay Packers.
Let’s take a look at some of the highlighted games of the week.
Las Vegas Raiders 17-13 Green Bay Packers
Jordan Love was intercepted three times in the game, including one on the final drive, which led to a Raiders win. The Packers were without Aaron Jones in the game, and now, after the game is over, both teams are 2-3 heading into Week 5 of the season.
Josh Jacobs and AJ Dillon both scored touchdowns in the game for their team, as Dillon went for 76 yards, and Jacobs finished with 69.
Chicago Bears 40-20 Washington Commanders
The week started with an impressive performance from Justin Fields and DJ Moore of the Chicago Bears. The Bears were winless heading into that game before hooking up for three touchdowns.
Moore finished the game with 230 yards. It was the first win of the season for the Bears and the second loss in a row for Washington.
Jacksonville Jaguars 25-20 Buffalo Bills
The Jacksonville Jaguars went to London 1-2 and left London 3-2. After beating the Falcons last week, the Jaguars beat the Bills in Week 5.
Jacksonville held Josh Allen to just two touchdown passes in the game on 27 of 40 passes. Travis Etienne was good for the Jaguars, with 136 yards and two touchdowns in the game. The loss for Buffalo dropped them to 3-2 on the season.

Along with the 49ers, the Eagles remained unbeaten on the season. Philadelphia used 303 passing yards from Jalen Hurts and an additional 70 rushing yards from D’Andre Swift to win the game.
The Rams scored two first-half touchdowns on the Eagles’ defense, but then Philadelphia allowed no more. The loss for the Rams dropped them to 2-3 on the season.
New York Jets 31-21 Denver Broncos
There was a bunch of talk preseason about this game, but in the end, the Jets went on the road and beat Sean Payton and the Broncos. Zach Wilson completed 19 of 26 passes for 199 yards and a score in the game.
The big story was the legs of Breece Hall. He finished with 177 yards and a touchdown on the day. The Jets win moved them to 3-2, while the Broncos are now 1-4.
San Francisco 49ers 42-10 Dallas Cowboys
This game was supposed to be one of the best on the schedule, and it ended up being all 49ers from start to finish. Brock Purdy was fantastic again for the 49ers under center.
Purdy tossed for 252 yards and four touchdowns in the game. Christian McCaffrey got into the end zone for the 49ers for his 14th straight game. The 49ers are now 5-0 on the season, while Dallas drops to 3-2.
