Week 3 of the NFL season was one for the record books — literally. The Miami Dolphins (3-0) posted an NFL record 726 yards in their 70-20 victory over the Denver Broncos (0-3), coming just 2 points shy of the regular-season record of 72 points in a game while scoring the most points in a game since 1966.
The San Francisco 49ers (3-0) preserved their unblemished record with a 30-12 home victory over the New York Giants (1-2) on Thursday Night Football while either the Philadelphia Eagles (2-0) or the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-0) will also improve to 3-0 provided they don’t tie in Monday night’s battle in Florida.
Another trio of teams remained winless Sunday as the Carolina Panthers (0-3) lost 37-27 at the Seattle Seahawks (2-1), the Chicago Bears (0-3) were thumped 41-10 at the Kansas City Chiefs (2-1) and the Minnesota Vikings (0-3) were toppled 28-24 by the visiting Los Angeles Chargers (1-2).
Week 4 gets underway with an NFC North battle when the Detroit Lions (2-1) visit the Green Bay Packers (2-1) on Thursday Night Football. The season’s first international game kicks off Sunday action as the Atlanta Falcons (2-1) and Jacksonville Jaguars (1-2) square off at Wembley Stadium in London.
Matchups between teams that look to be early-season divisional contenders highlight the Sunday slate as the Buffalo Bills (2-1) host the Dolphins and the Buccaneers visit the New Orleans Saints (2-1). One of either Denver or Chicago will get their 1st victory as they square off at Soldier Field and the week wraps up with the Seattle Seahawks (2-1) at the Giants on Monday Night Football.
