Week 12 of the NFL season continued Sunday with a handful of heavy-hitting matchups, and we’ve got you covered with every must-see play across the league ahead of Sunday Night Football (8:20 p.m. ET).
Here are the top plays from Sunday’s action!
Green Bay Packers at Philadelphia Eagles
Stay tuned for updates!
Las Vegas Raiders 40, Seattle Seahawks 34 (OT)
Flying high
The Raiders turned the ball over on their opening drive, and the Seahawks capitalized on the short field and early possession. Kenneth Walker III‘s 12-yard touchdown run put Seattle ahead early.
Bouncing back
Derek Carr redeemed himself with two big-time touchdowns to put Las Vegas in the lead, 14-13, late in the second quarter.
Ground game strong
Vegas added to its lead midway through the second quarter, thanks to some fancy footwork from Josh Jacobs, who was questionable ahead of kickoff.
Bombs away!
Tyler Lockett reeled in a 35-yard TD from Geno Smith to keep things close, 21-20, late in the second quarter. Then, Walker punched in his second touchdown of the game, bringing the Raiders’ defense in with him.
Battling late
Amid a back-and-forth battle in the fourth quarter, the Raiders charged downfield and tied things up at 34 points apiece with less than two minutes to spare, thanks to Davante Adams and a waiting Foster Moreau in the back of the end zone.
Run-off TD!
It all came down to Jacobs, who popped off for 86 yards to secure the road win for the Raiders. That gave the Raiders RB 303 yards from scrimmage on the day.
Kansas City Chiefs 26, Los Angeles Rams 10
Who else?
Travis Kelce reeled in a 39-yard touchdown from Patrick Mahomes to put the Chiefs up 7-0 early. Momentum was on Kansas City’s side in this one, as the Chiefs built their lead to 20-3 midway through the third quarter.
No quit
Rams backup QB Bryce Perkins connected with Van Jefferson for a 7-yard score in the fourth quarter to pull within 10 points, but it wasn’t enough to spark a comeback, and the Chiefs ran away with the win.
San Francisco 49ers 13, New Orleans Saints 0
Coming out strong
San Francisco‘s defense wasn’t messing around in this one, forcing a turnover early against the Saints to set the tone.
It’s good!
Jimmy Garoppolo lofted a short pass to Jauan Jennings, who came up with a huge score for the 49ers on this tipped ball. Just like that, it was 10-0 headed into the break.
The Niners’ defense continued to dominate in the second half, shutting out the Saints at home, 13-0.
Los Angeles Chargers 25, Arizona Cardinals 24
Star power
Kyler Murray tossed the ball DeAndre Hopkins‘ way, and the veteran receiver did the rest, spin move included.
Back-to-back TDs
Justin Herbert tossed touchdowns on consecutive drives in the second quarter — including this smooth 33-yard score from DeAndre Carter — to give the Chargers a 14-10 lead.
On the move
James Conner blew past the Chargers’ defense on his way to the end zone to give Arizona a third-quarter lead, 24-17.
Down to the wire
With seconds to spare in the fourth quarter, Austin Ekeler punched in a touchdown to bring L.A. within one point. Then, the Chargers opted to go for the win with a two-point conversion, and they pulled it off.
Cleveland Browns 20, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 17 (OT)
Browns running around
Add Anthony Schwartz to the many weapons Cleveland can employ out of its backfield. The wideout took a double reverse for 31 yards to get the Browns on the board right away.
Chief Kieft
The Buccaneers got their first lead of the day thanks in part to rookie tight end Ko Kieft.
Ain’t no Njoku
With less than a minute left, Cleveland made good on its desperation drive, as tight end David Njoku hauled in a one-handed catch in the back of the end zone to send the game into overtime, where the Browns secured the win.
New York Jets 31, Chicago Bears 10
Instant connection
The Jets‘ passing game has been a problem with Zach Wilson. With Mike White, it’s quickly proving to be a problem for the Bears. The replacement starter has already hooked up with rookie Garrett Wilson for two touchdowns, including a 54-yard score to give New York the lead again late in the second quarter.
Change creates change
For Jets coach Robert Saleh, switching QBs this week simply made sense. With his third touchdown toss on the day, White made good on that decision, and the Jets cruised to an easy victory.
Washington Commanders 19, Atlanta Falcons 13
Grown-man business
Brian Robinson was not going to be denied pay dirt on this catch.
Washington is a winning team
The Commanders‘ passing game didn’t produce much. But it did enough in the redone, with Taylor Heinicke‘s scoring pass to John Bates giving Washington a lead it wouldn’t relinquish.
Carolina Panthers 23, Denver Broncos 10
Moore is better
Sam Darnold, making his first start of the season, wasted no time targeting his top receiver. DJ Moore turned one of those throws into a first-half score.
Rolling in the deep
Darnold nearly squandered a scoring opportunity, only to land on his own fumble and find his way into the end zone to give the Panthers a two-touchdown lead and seal the win.
Cincinnati Bengals 20, Tennessee Titans 16
He could … go … all … the … way
Derrick Henry nearly added to his tremendous tally of 70-yard touchdowns, only he fumbled inside the fear. Don’t fret, Titans fans, Treylon Burks was there for the recovery and score.
Tee’d up
No Ja’Marr Chase, no problem. Tee Higgins showed why he’s an overqualified No. 2 wide receiver to give the Bengals a late lead, which they would hold on to.
Jacksonville Jaguars 28, Baltimore Ravens 27
That Jag has wheels
With Travis Etienne Jr. sidelined, JaMycal Hasty sprung free on a wheel route for a 28-yard touchdown.
Burning Man
After Jacksonville took a late lead, Lamar Jackson and DeSean Jackson hooked up for a huge gain to set up the Ravens‘ go-ahead touchdown drive.
Securing the W
In the end, the Jags put together a last-second touchdown drive to pull within one point, 27-26, capped off by a successful two-point conversion to take the lead.
The Ravens hustled downfield with seconds to spare, but Justin Tucker‘s 67-yard field goal attempt came up just short.
Miami Dolphins 30, Houston Texans 15
Don’t sleep on the Dolphins’ D
Miami‘s offense makes the headlines, but its defense can ball too — and it can score. Xavien Howard did just that after picking up a Texans fumble, contributing to a 30-0 lead at the half and an ultimate double-digit win.
