Week 5 started with the Jaguars and Bills tangling in England, a game marred by myriad penalties and an injury to Buffalo’s star linebacker Matt Milano. Jacksonville leaves London on a two-game win streak after its 25–20 win over Buffalo.
In the early slate, we had an AFC North matchup between the Ravens and Steelers at Acrisure Stadium decided late by a George Pickens’s touchdown grab. Then there was an intriguing tilt between two young quarterbacks in the Texans’ C.J. Stroud and the Falcons’ Desmond Ridder, with both leading late drives leading to points before a last-second field goal gave Atlanta the win.
The late window saw the Chiefs outlast the Vikings, with rookie receiver Rashee Rice scoring the winning touchdown. In Arizona, the Cardinals fought but fell to the desperate Bengals, who got a 300-yard performance from Joe Burrow.
