NFL Week Three on Sunday saw a series of thrilling encounters, including a record-tying number of one-score games. The Denver Broncos emerged victorious in a gripping primetime clash against the Los Angeles Rams, winning 30-26. Denver safety Talanoa Hufanga was a key player, scoring a 66-yard touchdown from an interception and later clinching the win with a second interception in the final seconds.
In another notable result, the Washington Commanders delivered a shock upset, defeating the defending Super Bowl champions, the Seattle Seahawks, 33-31. This victory halted Seattle's 12-game winning streak, which included their Super Bowl run last season. Despite quarterback Jayden Daniels' elbow injury, the Commanders, led by backup Marcus Mariota, secured the win with a 50-yard interception return for a score by linebacker Kain Medrano.
The action also extended to Brazil, where the NFL staged its second of a record nine international games this season. The Baltimore Ravens secured a dramatic 34-31 win against the Dallas Cowboys in Rio de Janeiro, with Tyler Loop kicking a 56-yard field goal as time expired. Meanwhile, the Las Vegas Raiders matched their entire 2025 win total by defeating the New Orleans Saints 35-27, maintaining their unbeaten record this season.
