Week 3 of the NFL season featured some impressive wins, including a few big comebacks and teams getting their first victories of the season. Storylines to watch included the matchup between Sean McVay and Kyle Shanahan, the inconsistency of the Cowboys, and a battle between undefeated teams in Minnesota. A key question was how the Panthers would fare without Bryce Young.
The Carolina Panthers made the switch from Bryce Young to Andy Dalton and came away with a 36-22 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Dalton had a standout performance, throwing for 319 yards and three touchdowns. The Raiders struggled at home after a strong showing the previous week.
The Los Angeles Rams staged a comeback against the San Francisco 49ers, winning 27-24 with great plays from Matthew Stafford and Kyren Williams. Brock Purdy had a solid game for the Niners, but they couldn’t seal the win.
The Minnesota Vikings remained undefeated with a dominant 34-7 win against the Houston Texans. Sam Darnold threw four touchdowns and the defense stymied C.J. Stroud.
The Baltimore Ravens secured their first win of the season, holding on for a 28-25 victory over the Dallas Cowboys. The Ravens built a big lead with a strong ground game, but the Cowboys mounted a comeback in the second half. This win was crucial for the Ravens, while the Cowboys need to address defensive issues moving forward.
