Nfl games week 1

Crazy catch. Just perfect. And here's Andy Dalton unleashing a red rocket downfield to find A. Green for a long touchdown connection. And arguably the best TD grab of the weekend so far goes to Antonio Brown for this nasty catch. Just incredible. The Buccaneers are lighting up the Saints' defense in the first half and Ryan Fitzpatrick is leading the charge with three touchdowns through the first two quarters. Fitz with the wheels! Then, the ol' Harvard grad also picked up his second TD pass of the day with this beauty back shoulder laser to Chris Godwin.

Bucs now lead ! Fitzpatrick went on to add a fourth and fifth TD in the second half. First, he hit Mike Evans with this yard strike. James Conner had himself quite a start to his sophomore campaign in Pittsburgh. He's nearing yards on the ground with two touchdowns including the big yard run seen below and has had an impact in the Steelers' passing game as well.

To the house! The Browns quarterback finally got Cleveland on the board in the second half, and he did it with his legs. Taylor scrambled for a yard touchdown -- his first as a member of the Browns. Joe Flacco isn't wasting any time making friends with his new targets in Baltimore. Flacco found veteran wideout Michael Crabtree in the back of the end zone and Crabtree made a great play to fight off the coverage and keep both feet in.

What a throw Flacco also added touchdown passes to John Brown and Willie Snead , who were also free agent acquisitions over the offseason. It seems that the veteran quarterback is enjoying his new weapons in the passing game. Gardner Minshew has a new backup QB. The Jacksonville Jaguars have agreed to terms with veteran signal-caller Mike Glennon, the team announced.

Around the League Presented By. Marc Sessler. ATL doesn't like the Bills. Chris Wesseling. Dan Hanzus, Gregg Rosenthal. Kevin Patra, Chris Wesseling. ATL oddly doesn't like the Vikings. ATL doesn't like the Raiders. Dan Hanzus, Chris Wesseling. He showed all those traits in dispatching the Jaguars with ease. Lawrence struggles. On the field, it was anything but the case. Lawrence threw a trio of interceptions, and generally looked uncomfortable in between occasional flashes of brilliance, such as a third-and conversion and a yard TD strike, both to D.

Grade him on a curve -- the Texans defense showed little respect for the run given a runaway lead, and Jacksonville receivers struggled to gain separation. Jaguars offense way out of sync. If new Jaguars coach Urban Meyer stops his tape review for every offensive miscue, he'll never put the remote down. The blocking actually wasn't too bad at times, but the execution stank like a skunk.

Add up a bevy of penalties, including four holding calls in the first half, plus a handful of drops, and it's drawing board time for this offensive coaching staff. Arizona Cardinals. Tennessee Titans. The Cardinals' defense has legitimate juice.

Watt was the first to make his arrival apparent by recording an early tackle for loss on Derrick Henry , and Chandler Jones did the rest with his five sacks.

Arizona came out aggressive and received plenty of fuel from its pair of edge rushers. In between, his mobility caused plenty of headaches and a handful of highlight-reel fake-outs on his way to an explosive stat line: 21 of 32, yards, four touchdowns and one interception. The Titans might want to burn this film. Tennessee was dominated in the one fashion that has proven to be its kryponite: bottle up Henry, jump out to a lead and force the Titans to try to throw their way back into the game.

Philadelphia Eagles. Atlanta Falcons. Jalen Hurts is a good fit in Sirianni's system. The player of the game by far, Hurts completed 27 of 35 pass attempts for yards and three touchdowns while adding 62 yards on the ground. On the team's opening drive of the season, Hurts floated a perfect TD pass to first-round wideout DeVonta Smith six receptions, 71 yards for the rookie's first NFL reception and the Eagles QB went on to sustain an efficient offense to secure an easy victory.

Hurts' great day at the helm was aided by savvy play calls and designs in accordance with a reliable running attack that featured Miles Sanders 74 yards on 15 attempts and rookie Kenneth Gainwell 37 yards, TD.

While Hurts wasn't asked to take many shots down field, the second-year QB proved to have already grasped the concept of Sirianni's system with a mistake-free day. The year-old should only improve as the season progresses. A debut to forget in Atlanta. The debut of Arthur Smith's offense started off hot, compiling two long, up-tempo drives that ended with field goals, but the burden of a developing team reared its head by halftime.

Untimely penalties, blatant stalls in the red zone, an inefficiency on third down and an energized Eagles defense prevented the Falcons from gaining any sort of rhythm from the second quarter on.

Falcons QB Matt Ryan had a rough day at the office with just yards passing 21 of 35 behind an offensive line that routinely collapsed in the second half three sacks allowed. Eagles defense sets a tone. A fast start from both teams set the table for a high-scoring affair, but the Eagles defense had no interest in a shootout. The Eagles allowed yards on the first two Atlanta drives of the game, but dominated from the second quarter on, allowing just total yards from the Falcons.

Although the Falcons offense shot itself in the foot on several occasions, the Eagles D prevented any big plays from transpiring while virtually every completed pass had a defender ready to make the tackle.

Philadelphia was able to pin its ears back and go after Ryan in the second half, compiling nine QB hits over the course of the day while Derek Barnett , Hassan Ridgeway and Brandon Graham found one sack apiece. Cincinnati Bengals. Minnesota Vikings. No top pick from the draft drew more scrutiny in the preseason than the Bengals wideout.

It really started on draft day, when Cincinnati opted to saddle young QB Joe Burrow with a future go-to target rather an offensive tackle with its first pick. The decision didn't look so dicey in Week 1. Chase, who had trouble separating from defenders and catching passes throughout August, hauled in his first four targets and five overall for a team-high yards against the Vikings.

The high mark was a yard bomb in which Burrow hit his former LSU teammate in stride for a touchdown. The duo's past is the Bengals' future. That's why they call him Captain Checkdown. But his infamous nickname has its merit, and it embodied Minnesota's offensive struggles in Week 1.

Cincinnati continually loaded the box to slow down Dalvin Cook and deter the Vikings from putting the ball in their best weapon's hands. The Bengals were confident that Cousins wouldn't try to beat them downfield, and they were mostly right.

The veteran QB completed With Cousins relying too much on his receivers to do the dirty work after the catch, the Bengals' secondary effectively kept everything in front while helping force punts on six of Minnesota's first seven possessions.

Cincinnati has rediscovered its running game. The Bengals ranked near the bottom of the league in rushing yards per carry and, accordingly, per game in Of course, that was more about his health and his offensive line. Neither were issues against the Vikings, except for when Zac Taylor inexplicably elected to go for it on fourth-and-1 from his own 30 with his team leading by 14 in the second half, a decision that opened the door for the Vikings' rally.

Cincinnati, though, was able to lean heavily on its running game to earn the narrow win. Mixon was back to his spry self and had plenty of room to work with while amassing yards on 29 carries. Such balance was critical for the second-year Burrow as he shed rust from his ACL rehab.

Carolina Panthers. New York Jets. Darnold era begins with a W. Back-to-back four-play drives and a botched handoff that resulted in a lost fumble on their own 15 declawed the Panthers to begin the game. But once they got it going, shades of what could be a promising offense began to emerge. From there, the unit stalled as an uninspired second half produced more punts four than points three and opened the door for a Jets comeback.

Wilson's debut went about as you'd expect , given the question marks that cloak this team. The subpar O-line, which will be without Mekhi Becton knee for a while, struggled to keep the young QB upright. But the young gun showed heart even as he took a beating six sacks. He still needs to improve his timing and decision making, but the and yard late-game TD drives he led showed what he can do and made Carolina sweat a little.

Is the Panthers D for real or just fortunate? Facing one of the NFL's most questionable offenses provided Carolina with a prime opportunity to start the season strong. And, boy, did the Panthers look like world-beaters on Sunday. Also, worth a mention: Rookie Jaycee Horn who, despite getting beat for a score late, looked solid three tackles and should develop into a reliable starter. Los Angeles Chargers. Washington Football Team. This was the type of game that the Chargers have lost countless times over the last decade, with terribly timed penalties giving Washington new life, and long down-and-distance situations arriving late.

Despite a late season swoon, there have been flashes of Kyler Murray recapturing his early season form, where he led the Arizona Cardinals to a start. Jacksonville Jaguars. Houston Texans. Los Angeles Chargers. Washington Football Team. WHEN: 1 p. Seattle Seahawks. Indianapolis Colts. New York Jets.
