The name Jonathan Taylor is giving Tennessee Titans fans nightmares: For the third consecutive season, the Indianapolis Colts NFL pro has scored three touchdowns against the team. Soon, the running back will also be seen in Berlin.
NFL pro Jonathan Taylor scored another three touchdowns in the Indianapolis Colts' next victory against the Tennessee Titans – setting a new record. Just like in the last matchup of last season and the 41-20 victory in September, the Colts running back also scored 18 points for his team in the 38-14 victory. According to US media, such a haul against the same opponent has never been seen before in the National Football League. With a total of 14 touchdowns this season, he leads the league.
For the Colts, who will face the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin in two weeks, it was their fourth win in a row and their seventh in eight games of the season—no team has a better record in the NFL. "We have a target on our backs. Every team will give us their absolute best. It's only going to get harder now," Taylor said.
Rodgers loses reunion with former clubThe only other team in the league with just one loss so far are the Green Bay Packers, who won the emotional reunion with their longtime quarterback Aaron Rodgers. The Packers won 35-25 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, for whom Rodgers has been playing since this season. Although Rodgers threw two touchdown passes, his successor Jordan Love led the Packers to victory with three touchdown passes and a flawless performance, including 360 yards.
Meanwhile, the struggling New York Jets' losing streak is finally over. Head coach Aaron Glenn's team, after seven consecutive losses, won 39-38 at the Cincinnati Bengals, making New York the last franchise to celebrate its first win of the season. Miami, which had lost three games in a row, also ended its losing streak. The Dolphins defeated the Atlanta Falcons 34-10 and now have two wins.
A touchdown by Mason Taylor, along with an extra kick by Nick Folk, gave New York the win with 1:54 remaining. It was the first under Glenn, who took over the team this season. It was his first stop as head coach.
Giants lose and fear for star rookieThe Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles defeated the New York Giants 38-20, but the game was overshadowed by a serious injury. Giants rookie Cam Skattebo had to be hospitalized with a sprained right ankle. Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts threw four touchdown passes, with Saquon Barkley providing a highlight. The running back ran 65 yards into the end zone to make it 6-0 early. The star player later scored another touchdown, this time on a throw from Hurts.
Philadelphia is now 6-2 and holds a clear lead in the NFC East. The Buffalo Bills (5-2) are also in good shape after two consecutive losses. Quarterback Josh Allen's team blew out the Carolina Panthers, winning 40-9. Allen found the end zone twice, as did James Cook III. The running back gained 216 (!) yards.
