Takeaways as Seahawks spoil Chiefs' perfect record on Sunday Night Football

Only one undefeated NFL team remains. The Seattle Seahawks stumped the Kansas City Chiefs 20-3, giving Patrick Mahomes and Co. their first loss of the season. The low-scoring game always favored Seattle, which took a 10-0 advantage into the break after a missed Harrison Butker field goal. Kansas City struggled to gain momentum to cut into the deficit, with another Butker miss playing a role in the failed comeback. Seattle improved to 4-3 with the result, while the Chiefs are now 5-1. Only the 6-0 Minnesota Vikings are flawless. Let's analyze the game further with takeaways: A matchup between two robust defenses needed to be broken open by stars. And there was no bigger star than Seahawks wideout Smith-Njigba. He went for nine catches on 12 targets for 150 receiving yards and a score. Kansas City couldn't slow down his agility as he made elite catches all over the field. It was a…

Four stats that explain Ole Miss football’s 34-27 loss to Texas

Saturday night’s 34-27 loss to No. 19 Texas will sit with No. 7 Ole Miss for a while. Despite being in a 21-point hole at halftime, the Rebels mounted a comeback that had the game tied at 24-24 just 60 seconds into the fourth quarter. But they couldn’t keep that momentum going and failed to capitalize on a number of chances Texas had given them. Games like this never come down to just one play, but here are four stats that help explain how and why the longhorns held on to the win against Ole Miss. That’s how many rushing yards Texas had in the fourth quarter Saturday night. The Longhorns rushed for 87 yards in the first half and actually finished the third quarter with minus-1 rushing yard. Through three quarters, Texas had just 86 yards on 30 carries. But after Ole Miss tied the game at 24-24 early in the fourth quarter, the Longhorns eventually figured out how to run the football.…

Giants Grades: Ground Force Rules in OT Win Over Texans

The New York Giants delivered a big overtime win against the Houston Texans, a 27-21 thriller in which the running game, challenged this week by head coach John Harbaugh, answered the call against a Texans defense that came in with the league's third-best run defense (83.0 yards per game). Harbaugh challenged the running backs to step up and take the bull by the horns. They produced 188 yards on 34 carries (5.5 average), with 180 of those yards on 28 carries (6.43 yards per carry) by Cam Skattebo, Tyrone Tracy Jr., and Devin Singletary. Skattebo, who finished with a career-best 124 yards on 17 carries, and Singletary had the Giants' two longest rushing plays from scrimmage this season in overtime on the game-winning drive. Skattebo went for 42 yards and Singletary for the 30-yard game-winner. All four of the Giants' touchdowns this week came on the ground, one each by Skattebo…

Vikings defense clamps down on Daniel Jones and the Colts for a 16-10 victory to stay undefeated

The Minnesota Vikings aren’t scoring much, but a near-impenetrable defense has so far had all the support it’s needed to fuel the NFC’s last undefeated team. Kyler Murray and the Vikings overcame another sluggish start and remained unbeaten with a 16-10 victory over the spiraling Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. “We feel really comfortable and confident to win football games when we don’t turn it over and we win the field position and boring stuff like that, because we know over the course of 60 minutes what that side can do,” Vikings coach Kevin O’Connell said. Cashman, the eighth-year linebacker who is thriving as the primary communicator for defensive coordinator Brian Flores, had 12 tackles, two sacks, four passes defensed and three hits on quarterback Daniel Jones for the Vikings (6-0), who have allowed a league-low 74 points. Smith picked off Jones around midfield with about a minute…
