Sam Darnold is having himself a day - 7/8 passes completed, 143 passing yards and two touchdowns. It's still the second quarter.
Arizona Cardinals 3-0 San Francisco 49ers
Although the 49ers have Mac Jones filling in for Brock Purdy under centre, they are yet to earn a first down on their two drives so far.
The Cardinals missed a field-goal attempt on the game's opening drive but Chad Ryland has just converted from 34 yards to break the deadlock in Santa Clara.
Dallas Cowboys 6-14 Chicago Bears
Brandon Aubery connects with a 33-yard field goal to reduce the deficit.
Dallas Cowboys 3-14 Chicago Bears
Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb came back into the game after hurting his left ankle, but he just pulled up while running a route and signalled he needed to come off. That's his game done.
Arizona Cardinals 0-0 San Francisco 49ers

And the San Francisco 49ers have Mac Jones to stand in for Brock Purdy, a first-round draft pick by none other than Bill Belichick at the New England Patriots in 2021 and 49ers boss Kyle Shanahan feels lucky to have him as a stand-in.
“It's great,” said Shanahan. “I mean, to be a legit back-up quarterback in this League, a number two quarterback, I believe you’ve got to be able to play like a one.
“And Mac has definitely done that a high level when he is a one, when he has been a one. He showed that on Sunday. He's shown our guys that since he's been here, so I think it didn't surprise the guys, but Mac's a real good player and feel fortunate to have him.”
New Orleans Saints 3-28 Seattle Seahawks
Tory Horton hauls in Sam Darnold's 14-yard pass in the corner of the endzone for his second score of the day.
The drive started in spectacular fashion - adding to their punt return touchdown and blocked punt, the Seattle Seahawks special teams pull off a 60 yard kick-off return.
Seattle are almost out of sight, and there's still 11 minutes of the second quarter left to play.
Dallas Cowboys 3-14 Chicago Bears
What. A. Play.
A flea-flicker play almost goes pear-shaped as D'Andre Swift's toss back to Caleb Williams is a little high, but the quarterback recovers to find Luther Burden III with a 65-yard bomb!
Talk about bag of tricks, that was spectacular.
Dallas Cowboys 3-7 Chicago Bears
Brandon Aubery nails a 53-yard field goal to get the Cowboys on the board in Chicago.
Dallas Cowboys 0-7 Chicago Bears
Bad news for the Dallas Cowboys - wide receiver CeeDee Lamb - third in NFL for receiving yards heading into week three - is hurt and receiving treatment on the sideline.
It looks like he went over on his left foot as he went down under a tackle.
New Orleans Saints 0-21 Seattle Seahawks
Seattle take full advantage of that punt block, as Kenneth Walker III running in from the three-yard line to give the Seahawks a three-score lead after barely 10 minutes!

Dallas Cowboys 0-0 Chicago Bears
What a defensive play that is!
The Dallas Cowboys' first possession lasts just two plays - Javonte Williams rushes 26 yards, but has the ball ripped from his grasp by Tyrique Stevenson who manages to gain control before stepping out of bounds!
Away teams first
Chicago Bears 0-0 Dallas Cowboys
Image source, Getty ImagesAfter his 2024 season was cut short by a hamstring injury, Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is looking back to his best.
While Prescott's priority is beating the Bears and getting Dallas on a winning record, he might be aware of a potential milestone.
The 32-year-old is seeking his 18th game - and second straight - with 350 passing yards and two touchdown throws.
If he achieves it, then he will move above Tom Brady with the second most in the NFL since 2016.
Only Patrick Mahomes (21) has more games with 350 passing yards and two passing scores.
New York Jets 27-29 Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Jets thought they'd snatched victory, like the Browns moments ago.
But the Bucs had enough time to get back into field-goal range with Baker Mayfield making big plays to Emeka Egbuka and Sterling Shepard, and this time Chase McLaughlin made no mistake from 36 yards to clinch victory for Tampa Bay, who are now 3-0.
New Orleans Saints 0-14 Seattle Seahawks
No rest for the wicked - we've already had two touchdowns in the late games.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba scores with a 12-yard touchdown pass from Sam Darnold to give the Seattle Seahawks an early lead against the New Orleans Saints.
The Saints' next possession ends in a punt, which is returned 95 yards to the house by Seahawks receiver Tory Horton.
That's Seattle's first punt return touchdown in 10 years!
New York Jets 27-26 Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Tampa Bay looked in control when Chase McLaughlin's field goal stretched their lead to 26-13 with six minutes left.
Tyrod Taylor's touchdown pass to Allen Lazard kept the Jets' hopes alive and although the Bucs then set up another field-goal attempt, it was blocked by Will McDonald IV.
He then scooped up the loose ball and took it all the way to the house, with the Jets' new head coach Aaron Glenn skipping down the sideline in celebration. They added the extra point to lead by one with just under two minutes left.
The Jacksonville Jaguars beat AFC South rivals Houston Texans 17-10, this season's surprise package the Indianapolis Colts smoke the Tennessee Titans 41-20, Marcus Mariota leads the Washington Commanders to a 41-24 win against the Las Vegas Raiders, and the Carolina Panthers shut out NFC South foes the Atlanta Falcons 30-0.
