49ers 37 @ Panthers 15

Cowboys 22 @ Rams 10

Eagles 20 @ Cardinals 17

7:19 - Stafford took another sack and the Cowboys were able to cover it up. The Rams are down 10-22 and it looks like it’s game over for Los Angeles.

7:13 - Oh no! The Cardinals just lost the game after a missed field goal. That would have tied it up 20-20, but the kick was no good. The Eagles stay undefeated.

7:08 - The Rams are looking at second down with 14 yards to go and just over four minutes to play.

6:46 - James Conner is banged up so, of course, it’s Eno Benjamin for the Cardinals’ score.

6:42 - The Panthers had a nice drive but the 49ers’ defense held strong. Their field goal is good but the boo’s are quite audible at home in Carolina.

6:39 - Matt Gay just missed a field goal for the Rams who trail by nine points to the Cowboys.

6:27 - Jeff Wilson got in for a touchdown on a one-yard rush. There was quite a lull of any action for the last 15 minutes. Brandon Aiyuk caught the two-point conversion… oh no. More laundry. Yuck. Offensive penalty. Robbie Gould is ruled out so the punter is now the kicker. His extra point was no good.

6:10 - Ooo, some toe drag swag there from Michael Gallup. They are knocking on the door of the red zone.

6:00 - Garoppolo just ran in a touchdown but there is a lot of laundry on the field. The flags offset but they have to replay the second down. Two plays later, he found Samuel for a short TD. The 49ers have a commanding lead over the Panthers 24-9.

5:50 - Yes! We have a score! Wait… or do we. Christian McCaffrey just scored on a 19-yard run, but there is a flag. Ok, yay! The score is good. The Panthers went for a two-point conversion but that failed. The 49ers lead 17-9.

5:45 - It’s the afternoon for fake punts. Darrel Williams got the first down for the Cardinals after taking the snap in a punt formation.

5:43 - I would really like to know why there are nine 1:00 games and only three 4:00 games. Help a girl out, NFL.

5:41 - Oh goodness! Fake punt for the Rams that got them a conversion.

5:30 - Marquise Brown finally pulled through with a 25-yard touchdown on a short pass from Kyler Murray. They cut the Eagles’ lead in half by 14-7.

5:22 - Tony Pollard rushed up the middle for a 57-yard touchdown and Mayfield just threw a pick-six.

5:19 - Cooper Kupp just scored after turning on the burners for the Rams. They just took the lead over the Cowboys 10-9.

The 49ers settle for a field goal but it’s BLOCKED!

5:13 - Deebo Samuel is on the sideline holding his right arm. No word yet on any kind of injury designation.

5:12 - It’s a rushing touchdown for Hurts again! They have a 14-0 lead over the Cardinals.

5:00 - DeVonta Smith had two great plays for the Eagles to move the chains. He has caught both of his targets for 42 yards.

4:57 - The Panthers went for another field goal and this time it was good.

4:53 - Baker Mayfield‘s underthrown pass that bounced off of the defender’s helmet was bailed out due to a penalty.

4:50 - Unfortunately, the Rams couldn’t do much with the opportunity and they settle for a field goal from Matt Gay for 29 yards.

4:46 - Holy cow! Tutu Atwell! Stafford finally had some time in the pocket and found Atwell on a 53-yard pass to get the Rams to the 11-yard line.

4:44 - Kyler Murray was just picked off by the Eagles and the 49ers kicked a 49-yard field goal with Robbie Gould.

4:41 - Dallas couldn’t do anything with the blocked punt so they settled for a field goal. The 49ers just moved an entire pile with Kittle in it to get them to the one-yard line.

4:37 - Jalen Hurts drove the Eagles down the field on the Cardinals on the back of Dallas Goedert and Miles Sanders. He kept it himself for a touchdown with a wall of Eagles there to push him into the end zone.

What is going on with the Dallas and Los Angeles game? Cowboys just blocked a Rams punt and have possession on the 20-yard line in scoring position.

4:32 - Panthers elect to kick a field goal against the 49ers but the kick is no good.

4:30 - Oh boy. The long snapper for the Cowboys snapped the ball before the holder was ready. The extra point didn’t happen so the Cowboys lead 6-0 over the Rams.

4:27 - Matthew Stafford just took a huge sack and the Cowboys scooped it up and scored. Wait, there is a flag down in the secondary. The laundry was picked up. There was no penalty for defensive holding. Touchdown for the Dallas defense.

4:24 - After a first-down conversion, George Kittle just fumbled and the Panthers recovered.

4:10 - Of course. Tevin Coleman has to be a thing again. He just rushed in a short touchdown for the 49ers. No. DO NOT GO PICK HIM UP OFF THE WAIVER WIRE. Just don’t.

4:11 - Pickett has some… ahem. Gusto. He started a melee after getting tackled and shoving the Bills’ defender.

4:07 - Wentz was picked off as time expired against the Titans.

3:55 - Oh boy. Lots of broken hearts here as we wind down the 1:00 pm ET games. Apparently, tackling Brady is the same as “roughing the passer”. Lawrence’s Hail Mary was picked off. Cade York‘s kick was no good and the Browns lost their chance to beat the Chargers.

Kenneth Walker ran in a 69-yard touchdown for Seattle who just made this a one-point game against the Saints. But wait! Taysom Hill just rushed in his THIRD touchdown. Their two-point conversion was with a run by Mark Ingram. Oh, Hill also threw a touchdown. Because he can.

3:43 - The Falcons won’t give up. Olamide Zaccheaus scored a touchdown and the two-point conversion was successful.

3:40 - Cousins took it in himself to take the lead over the Bears with just over two minutes to go. The two-point conversion was successful to Justin Jefferson.

Dameon Pierce got the score for the Texans for that game’s first touchdown. The Texans lead the Jaguars 13-6.

3:35 - Breece Hall just got the Jets to the one-yard line but it was Michael Carter with the touchdown. He just did the Jaylen Waddle touchdown dance.

3:34 - My goodness, Dameon Pierce! What a run! His yards after contact are ridiculous.

Adam Trautman just scored a touchdown for the Saints. They lead the Seahawks 31-28.

3:32 - James Cook scored a touchdown for the Bills on a 24-yard run. They lead the Steelers 38-3.

3:18 - Kareem Hunt just scored for the Browns on a two-yard run. They lead the Chargers 28-27.

Oooo… it’s getting chippy in the Steelers @ Bills game.

3:16 - Wait a minute. Henry’s hair is loose. This is weird. He also launched over the pile for a touchdown.

3:13 - The Vikings are going for it on the 50-yard line. The pass to Justin Jefferson was incomplete but there is a flag for holding. Minnesota got an automatic first down.

INJURY UPDATE: Rashaad Penny was just tackled and is holding his left ankle.

3:10 - Well, well, well… no one started Dyami Brown, but he just caught his second touchdown pass from Wentz.

3:03 - Fournette just scored another touchdown for Tampa Bay on a one-yard pass from Tom Brady. The two-point conversion is good to Russell Gage.

Third-string QB Bailey Zappe just hit Jakobi Meyers for a Patriots touchdown on a 24-yard pass.

3:01 - The Bears are going for it on fourth down and Fields takes it himself for a first down.

Olave ended up scoring on the play where he landed on his head.

3:00 - There is possibly a touchdown for Evans. The Buccaneers have thrown the challenge flag after they ruled him down on the one-yard line.

2:57 - The Dolphins added three to their score with a field goal. They trail the Jets 17-19.

INJURY UPDATE: Chris Olave is slow to get up after just missing a catch. He did walk off to the sideline under his own power. Oh wow. Just saw the replay. He literally landed on his head. Yikes.

2:47 - Oh no! Trevor Lawrence was just picked off in the end zone.

2:43 - Ok, Bears, I see you! Velus Jones scored a nine-yard receiving touchdown from Justin Fields and this has suddenly become a game. The two-point conversion was unsuccessful. The Bears still trail but it’s 16-21 against the Vikings.

INJURY UPDATE: Damien Harris has been ruled out with a hamstring injury.

2:30 - Mostert added another touchdown to his day… or did he? We’ll see. It was taken off the board but Durham Smytherushed it in for a one-yard score.

Geno Smith just found Tyler Lockett for a Seahawks’ touchdown. Smith has over 160 yards and two touchdowns on the day so far. Lockett’s touchdown was on a 35-yard pass.

2:28 - The Bills just keep crushing. Allen found Khalil Shakir for a 24-yard touchdown against the Steelers.

2:26 - Finally! Henry scored on a one-yard rush for the Titans. He does have 18 attempts for 83 yards as well as two receptions for 30 yards. He should have two touchdowns instead of one. Just saying.

2:18 - Oh no! Insult to injury for the Steelers. Boswell missed his field goal. It has been windy in Buffalo, but that had died down when he tried his kick. Yuck.

Speaking of yuck. Travis Etienne just fumbled and the Texans recovered. Something needs to change at halftime during this game. It’s a crazy barn burner of 6-3. Snooze.

2:15 - Nick Chubb is running all over the Chargers as he scored his second touchdown. Diontae Johnson couldn’t get his second foot down again on a great pass from Pickett.

2:13 - The Bears convert with a David Montgomery rushing touchdown and Zach Wilson just rushed in a score for the Jets.

2:10 - Holy cow, what a catch by Darnell Mooney! One-handed, over his head, falling backward. The Bears are within scoring distance against the Vikings who have a big lead over Chicago.

2:08 - Yay! This time it was Austin Ekeler with a short, receiving touchdown for the Chargers. And Stefon Diggs scored for the Bills. Ew. 24-3 against the Steelers. That’s rough.

2:07 - Oh no! Goff just fumbled and the Patriots scooped and scored on fourth down. Ouch.

2:00 - Seahawks botched a punt and the Saints have possession on the 15-yard line with four minutes until halftime.

1:58 - Oh boy, Gabe Davis! He had a huge, one-handed catch for 62 yards and another touchdown against the Steelers. He has 160 yards and two scores already and it’s not even halftime yet.

1:57 - Raheem Mostert just waltzed into the end zone for the Dolphins. Bridgewater is still out and Thompson is doing a good job of keeping the Dolphins moving in the right direction.

1:52 - The Vikings just got away with a scare after Mattison fumbled, but he was called down by contact. Jalen Reagorwas the touchdown recipient on a one-yard pass from Cousins.

1:50 - The Buccaneers finally got into the end zone thanks to Leonard Fournette. The Chargers also scored, but it wasn’t Austin Ekeler, it was Joshua Kelley. And Carson Wentz scored a touchdown for the Commanders on a beautiful, 75-yard pass to Dyami Brown with no Jahan Dotson and no Logan Thomas.

1:45 - Well, look who it is. Taysom Hill just plowed his way into the end zone for the Saints.

1:40 - The Lions’ defense stepped up and held Rhamondre Stevenson and the Patriots. They kicked their second field goal of the day to lead 6-0.

Huge catch by Mike Evans got the Buccaneers a first down in traffic.

1:32 - The Saints had to kick another long field goal, which was good.

Dalvin Cook punched in another touchdown. Alexander Mattison has been involved in between the 20s with four rush attempts for 13 yards. They will likely keep this split up while Cook deals with his shoulder injury.

1:30 - This is so annoying. Stop me if you have read this before. Derrick Henry got them all the way to the red zone, but noooo…. It’s Dontrell Hilliard with the touchdown. Why? Why!

Meanwhile, Jared Goff was just picked off by the Patriots.

1:28 - Allen just keeps slinging the football downfield on Pittsburgh. It’s almost criminal. Unfortunately, they couldn’t convert and Tyler Bass’ kick is good. He did have an earlier field goal blocked already today.

1:26 - Touchdown Amari Cooper on a beautiful pass from Jacoby Brissett. The Browns have a 14-0 lead over the Chargers.

1:23 - The Falcons just held the Buccaneers on a fourth-down attempt. Leonard Fournette couldn’t quite make it to the mark.

1:20 - Teddy Bridgewater has been taken to the locker room. Skylar Thompson is in at quarterback.

What a pass from Kenny Pickett to Diontae Johnson to get the Steelers to the two-yard line. Oh no! Johnson didn’t get his second foot down! They will have to settle for a Chris Boswell field goal.

1:15 - D.K Metcalf just scored a 50-yard touchdown for the Seahawks. They lead the Saints 7-3 after a field goal for New Orleans.

INJURY UPDATE: There is an ambulance on the field at the Lions @ Patriots game. Not sure what’s going on, but will keep you posted.

1:10 - And here is the Gritty dance! Justin Jefferson just scored a nine-yard touchdown from Kirk Cousins and Nick Chubb just rushed in a 41-yard touchdown on the Chargers. The Jets just scored a safety with Teddy Bridgewater filling in for Tua Tagovailoa.

Never mind! The Jefferson touchdown was taken off the board but Dalvin Cook punched it in for the score.

1:07 - Ew. Things aren’t looking good for the Steelers. They fumbled the kick-off after the huge Davis score. The Bills have possession on the 21-yard line. Ouch.

1:05 - That was fast! Gabe Davis just scored a 98-yard touchdown from Josh Allen who was backed up in his own end zone.
