Bills quarterback Josh Allen, Commanders QB Jayden Daniels highlight Players of the Week

With MVP chants raining down on him from the home crowd, Allen was nearly perfect in leading the Buffalo Bills to a 47-10 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Monday night. Allen, who was on the sidelines watching the blowout in the four quarter, completed 23 of 30 passes (76.7%) for 263 yards, four touchdowns, no interceptions and a sterling 142.1 rating. Allen, who piloted Buffalo to touchdowns on each of its five first-half possessions, also led the Bills with 44 rushing yards.

There have been few — if any — rookie prime-time debuts better than Daniels’ showing on Monday night when he keyed the Washington Commanders’ 38-33 upset win over the host Cincinnati Bengals. Daniels completed a rookie-record 91.3% of his passes as he was 21-of-23 passing for 254 yards with no interceptions and a 141.7 rating. He added 39 rushing yards and had three touchdowns in total, two through the air and one on the ground.

The Indianapolis Colts defense needed to step up on Sunday, and it did in a major way, with Jones leading the cause during Indy’s 21-16 win over the Chicago Bears. Jones had two interceptions in the victory to go with five tackles, including a tackle for loss.

Greenard feasted against his former team, providing to be a catalyst in the Minnesota Vikings’ lopsided 34-7 win versus the Houston Texans. Greenard had four tackles and three sacks on Sunday.

During the Denver Broncos’ 26-7 blowout win Sunday over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Lutz piled up the points. The veteran kicker was perfect on six kicks, converting a pair of extra points and adding a quartet of field goals to help Denver to its first win of the season.

In a grind-it-out 20-13 Detroit Lions win over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, field position proved pivotal and Fox played a vital role in the victory. Fox punted five times, with four placed inside the opposing 20-yard line. The big booter averaged 49.4 yards per punt with a 45.4 net.
