Running backs deliver huge performances as Burrow rallies Bengals: NFL Week 7 winners and losers

Running backs lead the way

Pittsburgh’s Jaylen Warren cleared 125 yards from scrimmage for the fourth time this season, tying Kansas City’s Kenneth Walker for the league lead in that category. His performance helped the Steelers beat the New Orleans Saints 16-10.

Tampa Bay’s ground game was productive in a 43-13 victory over Carolina. Bucky Irving ran for 106 yards and two touchdowns, Kenneth Gainwell added 88 yards on 14 carries, and the Buccaneers totaled 258 yards on 49 rushing attempts.

Late plays decide games

Cleveland kicker Andre Szmyt delivered his third game-winning kick for the 5-2 Browns, securing a 20-17 win over Tennessee. Cleveland now faces a first-place AFC North game in Pittsburgh next weekend.

Atlanta linebacker Kendal Daniels intercepted a pass to help seal a 29-20 win over San Francisco, a week after he was carted off the field. Denver’s Bo Nix also made a major play with his legs, running 62 yards for a touchdown in a 30-16 victory over Arizona.

Struggles for Jets, Colts

The New York Jets lost again under head coach Aaron Glenn, falling to an 0-5 Miami Dolphins team that was without its best offensive player. Glenn’s record as Jets coach is 5-19, and the team has recorded one interception in his 24 games.

Indianapolis quarterback Daniel Jones completed 13 of 22 passes for 108 yards against Minnesota and threw a late interception that ended the game. The Colts have gone 3-13 over their past 16 games, dating back to the end of the 2025 season.

Missed kicks cost Green Bay

Green Bay kicker Trey Smack missed two field goals in a 20-17 loss to Detroit. Both attempts were described as kicks that should have been chip shots.
