Ravens Dominate NFC, Patriots Upset Bills, Chiefs Win on Lamar Jackson's MVP-Quality Performance

Lamar Jackson's spectacular form helps Ravens ravage NFC's best team; rookie QB Tyson Bagent's surprise performance leads Bears to victory over Raiders; Patriots shock Bills in tightly-contested finish; Davante Adams still dissatisfied despite increased usage by Raiders; Steelers and Chiefs hold off opposition for much-needed wins.

Lamar Jackson's exceptional performance in the Baltimore Ravens' domination of the NFC's best team highlights him as a strong MVP candidate. Jackson finished with 21 completions on 27 pass attempts for 357 yards and three touchdowns, with a near-perfect passer rating of 155.3.
Davante Adams' dissatisfaction continues despite increased usage by the Raiders, with seven catches for 57 yards in their loss to the Bears. Adams, who led the NFL with 14 touchdown receptions last year, has just three this season after seven games.
Mac Jones led a comeback drive for the New England Patriots, culminating in a touchdown pass with 12 seconds left to pull off a 29-25 win over the Buffalo Bills. Jones' performance marked a notable improvement following a difficult start to the season with seven interceptions and two fumbles.
Rookie quarterback Tyson Bagent's surprise performance led the Chicago Bears to victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. Despite being an undrafted rookie from Division II Shepherd University, Bagent was able to execute the game plan given to him, which has raised questions over the effectiveness of the Raiders' offensive system.
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce proved his immense value with 12 catches, 179 yards, and a touchdown in their win over the Chargers. His performance reaffirms his status as one of the NFL’s best receiving tight ends and a valuable asset to the Chiefs.
