Mack attack
Khalil Mack came up with a massive play for the Bears in the fourth quarter. With Chicago down by a point and the Cardinals charging down the field, Mack forced a fumble and the Bears recovered. It was Sam Bradford's third turnover of the half.
Just another day at the office for @52Mack_.#CHIvsAZ | #DaBears pic.twitter.com/3BNVL8wvuv

Mack has a forced fumble and a sack in all three Bears games so far this season.
Slippery Coop
The Rams' offense kept picking up steam against the Chargers and Cooper Kupp is a big reason why. Kupp fought off a defender and took it to the house for a 53-yard touchdown to open up the second half.
.@CooperKupp says... GET OFF ME. 😤

Extra special teams
The Chargers' punter had a rough day at the office. Not only was this punt attempt blocked and recovered for a touchdown, but he was also hurt on the play. Ouch.
🚨🚨 BLOCKED PUNT ALERT! 🚨🚨

Phil the Thrill
Philip Rivers is trying to lead the Chargers to glory in the Battle of LA, and throws like this one are helping him out. Rivers tossed an absolute dime to Mike Williams, who made a great diving catch for the game-tying touchdown in the first quarter. What an absolutely beautiful pitch and catch.
Philip Rivers goes DEEEEEP to @darealmike_dub for SIX!

Walk-off!
The Saints and Falcons had themselves a shootout in Atlanta, one that needed overtime to find a winner. The winner came when Drew Brees hopped the pile and got himself a walk-off touchdown.

Fins get tricky!
Miami mounted a comeback victory on the Raiders and they went ahead on this awesome trick play that found the end zone.
THE TRICKERY IS REAL 😏

Poor Clay Matthews
The Packers' linebacker has been hit with another unfortunate "roughing the passer" call that is worth an eye roll. Have a look for yourself.

Matthews was whistled for landing on the quarterback with all or most of his weight, but it's hard to imagine what he could have done differently there. As you'd expect, Packers coach Mike McCarthy was not thrilled.

Three for Calvin
It's been quite a nice day for rookie Falcons receiver Calvin Ridley. The former Alabama standout has all three of Atlanta's touchdowns so far, making him the first rookie WR to have a three-touchdown game since Odell Beckham Jr.
.@CalvinRidley1 just caught his THIRD TD of the day...

Let's hope you started him in @nflfantasy!

Mahomes enters historic territory
Patrick Mahomes is still carving up defenses and impressing in his first year as a starter. He made this brilliant play on the run to pick up a touchdown pass against the 49ers on Sunday.
You're not going to stop @patrickmahomes5 and the @chiefs! 😳

Then Mahomes entered the history books by setting a new record for touchdown passes through three weeks of a season. His 13th TD pass in Week 3 tops names like Peyton Manning (12), Tom Brady (11), Dan Marino (10), Jim Kelly (10) and Brett Favre (10). Not bad.
History.@PatrickMahomes5 just tossed his 13th TD of the season, passing Peyton Manning (12 in 2013) for the most passing TDs in a team's first three games of the season in NFL History.

Josh Allen? The Bills?!
Josh Allen and the Bills took it to the Vikings -- yes, those Vikings -- in the first half, just as everyone expected. Allen made some plays both through the air and on the ground, including two rushing touchdowns and a complete hurdle of Anthony Barr.
JOSH ALLEN WILL DO IT HIMSELF! 👀

Hello, Carson Wentz!
Carson Wentz was back behind center for the Eagles after tearing his ACL last season. He didn't waste much time picking up his first touchdown pass, finding tight end Dallas Goedert in the end zone.
Welcome back, @cj_wentz!

Jordy's back
It wasn't the best first couple of weeks for the Raiders' Jordy Nelson, but the former Packers wideout proved that he can still ball in Week 3. The receiver had nearly 150 receiving yards and a touchdown in the first quarter of Oakland's contest against the Dolphins.
.@JordyRNelson catches his first @Raiders TD! 🙌
