The sport noticed some strong particular person efforts — shoutout to Buffalo punter Brad Robbins, for one — however this was a dismal general efficiency from a crew perspective.

The offense managed 47 internet yards with Mike White at QB as in contrast with the Bears’ 371, and Buffalo was outscored 28-0 in a lopsided first half. The offense didn’t convert a 3rd down (0-of-8). There have been miscues that coach Sean McDermott will not be pleased with, together with 4 penalties on the primary drive of the third quarter.

Subsequent sport: at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (Saturday, 7:30 p.m. ET)

Fields accomplished his first throw — a 4-yard flare to tight finish Mason Taylor — then completed with 5 straight incompletions in two collection of motion (a excessive snap and a QB strain contributed to 2 of the errant throws.) Fields was 0-for-3 when focusing on wideout Garrett Wilson, his previous buddy from Ohio State. Sure, the Jets once more confirmed potential within the working sport, however it’s laborious to be one-dimensional within the NFL.

Subsequent sport: vs. Philadelphia Eagles (Friday, 7:30 p.m. ET)

Bucs: With quarterback Baker Mayfield sitting, Teddy Bridgewater hit working again Bucky Irving and broad receiver Emeka Egbuka for 15- and 5-yard landing passes.

The protection, enjoying with out most of its starters, held the Bucs to 2.5 yards per carry in a primary half that includes most of their starters. Juan Thornhill and Brandin Echols set the tone early, stuffing working again Bucky Irving on the primary play of the sport. The Steelers’ offense, nonetheless, had about as a lot success as Tampa Bay in working the ball. With beginning RB Jaylen Warren sitting out for the second week in a row, rookie Kaleb Johnson noticed loads of motion.

Subsequent sport: vs. Las Vegas Raiders (Saturday, 10 p.m. ET on NFL Community)

49ers: The 49ers did not have sufficient wholesome starters on protection to provide the primary unit a full look towards the Raiders, however the offense did. The excellent news?

The dangerous information? Proper guard Dominick Puni suffered a proper knee harm on the sphere purpose to cap that drive and was shortly dominated out.

Subsequent sport: at Arizona Cardinals (Saturday, 10 p.m. ET, NFL Community)

Texans: In what is probably going the final we have seen of the Texans’ beginning protection in preseason, Houston allowed just one first down via three collection.

Vikings: The Vikings sat all of their starters and greater than a dozen key backups, having prioritized the 2 days of joint practices with the Patriots over preseason enjoying time. That left two personnel teams to observe: the backup quarterbacks and kick/punt returners.

Presumptive No. 2 quarterback Sam Howell had a shaky outing, finishing solely one in all 5 passes for 13 yards with an interception. Rookie Max Brosmer performed the whole second half and carried out properly sufficient, finishing 15 of 26 passes for 156 yards, to make the backup competitors attention-grabbing for the following few weeks.

In the meantime, the return sport supplied attention-grabbing takeaways as rookie receiver Tai Felton took the primary punt and kickoff returns, and rookie receiver Myles Value ripped off an 81-yard kickoff return within the fourth quarter. Felton fair-caught the one punt he noticed, and he fumbled on the finish of a 21-yard kickoff return.

There stays much less readability on the punt return place, nonetheless. — Kevin Seifert

Subsequent sport: at Tennessee Titans (Friday, 8 p.m. ET, CBS)

Packers: Penalties slowed down the Packers early; rookie second-round sort out Anthony Belton had 5 (FIVE!) by himself within the first half. However a minimum of they received to see what second-year working again MarShawn Lloyd may be capable to do after lacking most of his rookie 12 months due to accidents and sickness. The 2024 third-round choose made the largest play from scrimmage within the first half with a 33-yard catch on a wheel route from Malik Willis.

With Josh Jacobs and many of the first-stringers sitting, Lloyd began and performed 11 snaps. He had six carries for 15 yards and was focused 4 instances with the one catch.

Walker has missed intensive chunks of time within the spring and summer season after lacking 11 video games final 12 months, and it is sufficient to marvel not solely about his availability however how crisp he’ll be in a brand new blocking scheme when he’s on the sphere. The ever-reliable Charbonnet, in the meantime, hasn’t missed a day, and his manufacturing has been validating all of the glowing reward he will get from teammates and coaches.

Subsequent sport: vs. Inexperienced Bay Packers (4 p.m. ET, Saturday, NFL Community)

Chiefs: All 4 of the Chiefs’ outstanding rookies on protection — sort out Omarr Norman-Lott, finish Ashton Gillotte, cornerback Nohl Williams and linebacker Jeffrey Bassa — struggled with extending enjoying time Friday.
