Some big plays were made around the NFL on Sunday.

Following a blockbuster clash with the Baltimore Ravens and Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night, eight matches took place ahead of the late kick-offs.

Read on to see what happened around the grounds.

Carolina Panthers 20-17 New York Giants

In Munich, the Panthers secured their third win of the season at the expense of the Giants.

The side from New York scored 0 points in the first half, with quarterback Daniel Jones throwing two interceptions in the match.

The Giants only managed two touchdowns, but it was enough to see off their struggling opponents.

Chicago Bears 3-19 New England Patriots

Drake Maye led the New England Patriots to their third win against the Bears.

The rookie threw 15-25 for 184 yards, outscoring fellow draft pick Caleb Williams, who did not manage a score.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers 20-23 San Francisco 49ers

The return of Christian McCaffrey was marked with a win for the 49ers.

He had 13 carries in the match for 39 yards, a nice way to ease his way back in.

Baker Mayfield threw only 116 yards compared to Brock Purdy’s 353, with the quarterback being good value for the win.

Kansas City Chiefs 16-14 Denver Broncos

With the chance to kick a game-winning field goal, Denver saw their effort blocked by the Chiefs, who cannot do any wrong at the moment.

The third quarter was the only scoreless period in the match.

Washington Commanders 27-28 Pittsburgh Steelers

The Steelers halted Jayden Daniels and the Commanders, moving on par with them at seven wins.

It did look like Washington were going to get one final drive before the game ended, but a poor offside call gave the hosts a new set of downs and they were able to see things out in victory formation.

Jacksonville Jaguars 7-12 Minnesota Vikings

The Vikings had an off day but got the job done against the Jaguars.

Mac Jones was in at QB with Trevor Lawrence tipped to miss an extended period and he threw just one touchdown int he first quarter.

Two field goals and a touchdown were enough to snatch the win for Sam Darnold and the Vikings.

The Saints scored 17 of their 20 points in the second quarter against the Falcons.

Derek Carr trumped Kirk Cousins in a shock result in Atlanta, moving them to 6-4 with the Saints at 3-7.
