The week 5 of the NFL Regular Season has wrapped up. Things have been quite interesting as we look into the results we got.
First of all, the top teams in both the AFC and the NFC Remain quite the same. The AFC East and AFC West leaders, the Dolphins and Chiefs continue to win games, this time with a single loss and 4 wins.
On the other side, the NFC East and West leaders, the Eagles and 49ers, continue their perfect run.
Now it is time to look back at the matches that took place on the field this last week, so we can better predict what is coming our way in the next games as we continue through the 2023/24 NFL season.

Whenever Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills tried to rally in the fourth quarter on Sunday, Travis Etienne and the Jacksonville Jaguars had an answer.
Etienne rushed for 136 yards and two fourth-quarter touchdowns, and Jacksonville outlasted the jet-lagged Bills for a 25-20 win at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The Jaguars (3-2) may not want to leave London after getting back-to-back wins, ending Buffalo’s three-game winning streak, and proving they can hang with an AFC powerhouse.
Allen twice brought the Bills back late in the fourth quarter. He ran it in from 3 yards to complete a 75-yard drive that took just 45 seconds, making it 25-20 before the two-minute warning.
With the Bills out of timeouts, the Jags punted to the Buffalo 6, leaving the Bills just 22 seconds. Stefon Diggs caught a pass and tried to lateral it, but Jacksonville recovered the fumble.

Brock Purdy threw three of his four touchdown passes to George Kittle, and San Francisco (5-0) extended its dominance over visiting Dallas (3-2).
The Niners knocked the Cowboys out of the playoffs in tight games the past two seasons, adding intrigue to this early season matchup between perceived contenders.
The rematch wasn’t even close.
The Niners led 14-0 before the Cowboys got their initial first down and were never really threatened on the way to matching a franchise record with their 15th straight regular-season win and earning their fifth 5-0 start.
Purdy calmly picked apart the league’s stingiest defense to improve to 10-0 as a starter in the NFL, and San Francisco’s defense made life difficult for Dak Prescott all night.
Prescott was sacked three times and heaved an interception into double coverage after Dallas fell behind 28-10 in the third quarter. He threw two more interceptions in the fourth quarter, with his only highlight coming on a 26-yard TD pass to KaVontae Turpin in the second quarter.
It was Dallas’ most lopsided defeat since losing 49-17 to New Orleans in 2013.
