"Bo Nix threw an early touchdown pass, Wil Lutz kicked a late go-ahead field goal and the Denver Broncos sacked Justin Fields nine times, with the final one sealing an ugly 13-11 victory over the winless New York Jets on Sunday. The Broncos (4-2) won their third in a row, but found themselves trailing 11-10 after conceding a safety in the third quarter against a Jets team that managed just 82 total net yards on offense."
"Despite a horrendous offensive display, the Jets (0-6) still had the ball with a chance to drive for a potential winning score. But Fields was sacked by Jonathon Cooper and Justin Strnad on fourth-and-eight from the Denver 44 after Aaron Glenn opted to go for it rather than send out Nick Folk for a long field-goal attempt. Folk had successfully converted all three of his field goals. Fields struggled all game, completing nine of 17 passes for just 45 yards."
"Rico Dowdle went over 200 yards from scrimmage for the second straight week this time against his former team and rookie Ryan Fitzgerald kicked a 33-yard field goal as time expired as the Carolina Panthers (3-3) defeated the Dallas Cowboys (2-3-1) in a wild back-and-forth. Bryce Young completed 17 of 25 passes for 199 yards and threw two of his three touchdown passes to rookie Tetairoa McMillan."
