NFL Week 7 Recap: Jets Still Searching for Their First Win

This week in New York, the Jets continued their unfortunate streak, dropping to 0-7 after another tough outing against the Carolina Panthers. Their offense looked dismal, leading to a quick switch from starting quarterback Justin Fields to Tyrod Taylor. Head coach Aaron Glenn has yet to confirm who will take the snaps in Week 8.

On a brighter note, Kansas City and Philadelphia are on track to potentially meet for the Super Bowl for the third time in just four seasons. Both teams secured convincing wins, with Kansas City shutting out the Las Vegas Raiders 31-0, largely thanks to Patrick Mahomes, who threw for 286 yards and three touchdowns. One of those TDs was caught by rookie Rashee Rice, making his return after a lengthy absence due to surgery and suspension.

Meanwhile, Jalen Hurts of the Eagles had a standout performance, achieving a perfect passer rating in their 28-22 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. Hurts connected with teammates A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith for a total of three touchdowns.

In London, Matthew Stafford had a record-setting game by throwing five touchdown passes, a first for any player in the International Series. His performance elevates him into the MVP conversation alongside Mahomes and others. However, the Jacksonville Jaguars struggled in their game, suffering from numerous penalties and poor offensive line play.

Back in the U.S., the Cleveland Browns broke a streak of low-scoring games by defeating the Miami Dolphins 31-6. Rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel displayed steady performance, contributing to the team’s win.

On the other hand, the Washington Commanders‘ fortunes seem to be faltering with Jayden Daniels dealing with a hamstring injury. As they attempt to stay competitive in the NFC East, it’s clear they are struggling with consistency.

In Dallas, Brandon Aubrey made headlines with a 61-yard field goal, while Dak Prescott continued his efficient play, throwing for multiple touchdowns yet again.

As Week 7 wraps up, the league is buzzing with questions. Will the Jets ever find their first win? Can the Chiefs and Eagles maintain their top form? As the season progresses, fans eagerly await answers.
