Jets get first win with stunning comeback against Bengals hours after Nick Mangold’s death

CINCINNATI — The noise heard from the other side of the visitors locker room walls was joyous. The euphoria was palpable.

It was a foreign emotion for the Jets, whose somber locker room vibe the previous seven weeks had represented something closer to a somber occasion.

The Jets won a football game on Sunday at Paycor Stadium, 39-38 over the Bengals, and now the 0-17 watch for the Jets has ceased.

You can’t go 10-7 and sneak into the playoffs before you go 1-7.

Too soon? Sorry.

But this day was filled with so much good on the field for a Jets team that has endured so much bad this season, it’s difficult not to be at least a little bit intoxicated and dole out credit where credit is due.

The Jets offense, which had gone the past two games without scoring a touchdown, scored three of them in the fourth quarter to erase deficits of 15 points (late in the third quarter) and 14 points (midway through the fourth quarter).

The game-winning touchdown came in the form of a creative offensive call from Tanner Engstrand, the rookie coordinator who’d been coaching a lot like he’s in over his head.

It was a frenetic 4-yard halfback option pass from Breece Hall, who’d rushed for 133 yards and two TDs in the game. He threw his first career TD pass to rookie tight end Mason Taylor with 1:54 remaining in the game.

When it was over, the noise from inside the Jets locker room came as vice chairman Christopher Johnson was handing Glenn the game ball and massive defensive tackle Harrison Phillips was lifting the rookie head coach into the air.

“It was beautiful,’’ Jets receiver Allen Lazard said of the scene. “It was such a wholesome moment for everyone in this organization. We’ve been waiting a long time for this.’’

Eagles 38, Giants 20 | Week 8

Giants are in the Jaxson Dart danger zone after step back that continues losing ways

Jaxson Dart and the New York Giants were hoping to pull off a surprising season sweep over the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 8 NFL action. After beating the Eagles earlier this season, the Giants were unable to pull off the feat.

Unfortunately, New York ended up losing the game by a final score of 38-20.

Not only did the Giants lose the game, they also suffered a major injury blow. Cam Skattebo, the team's star rookie running back, went down with a gruesome leg injury. When the injury occurred, his foot was pointed in the wrong direction and he was carted off of the field with what seems likely to be a season-ending injury.

Following the loss, New York dropped to 2-6 on the season. The losing has already been a source of frustration for Dart.

After the game, Dart spoke out with a fiery message to his team. He's clearly not happy with his team's inability to win football games so far this season.

“We’ve got to start figuring out ways to win because I hate (losing)," Dart said. "I’m not used to it. I’m not just going to accept it. I’m not going to be OK with it. We as a team can’t be OK with it. We’ve got to figure this out.”

NFL Week 8 winners and losers: Browns wasting Myles Garrett's brilliance?

The Browns lost to the New England Patriots 32-13 in Week 8, dropping their record to 2-6. The loss was characterized by an ineffective offense, though the defense saw a standout, record-setting performance from Myles Garrett, who recorded 5.0 sacks.

The Cleveland Browns lost their Week 8 game to the New England Patriots, 32–13. The game was played on Sunday, October 26, 2025, in Foxborough, Massachusetts. Key game details

• Final Score: New England Patriots 32, Cleveland Browns 13.
• Standings: The loss dropped the Browns to 2–6 on the season.
• Individual Performance: Browns defensive end Myles Garrett had a record-setting performance in the loss, recording five sacks and setting a new franchise record.

The Browns lost to the Patriots in Week 8 primarily due to a dysfunctional offense that failed to move the ball, convert turnovers into points, and take advantage of an outstanding defensive performance. The Patriots pulled away in the second half with a surge of offensive production, outscoring the Browns 21–0 in the third quarter.

Monday Night

The Kansas City Chiefs have beaten the short-handed Washington Commanders 28-7 on “Monday Night Football.” Travis Kelce turned back the clock for a vintage performance, making six catches for 99 yards and a touchdown.

Washington's fight can't make up for limitations. The Commanders deserve a healthy amount of credit for how they approached this prime-time affair in which most everyone expected them to lose. They showed up ready to scrap for four quarters and took the fight to the Chiefs early. Washington stopped an early Kansas City drive in its tracks when         Marshon Lattimore made an excellent play, snagging a Mahomes pass for a one-armed interception. 

The Commanders forced another turnover on the ensuing Chiefs drive and transformed into a remarkably sticky secondary in the first half, keeping this game close heading into the break. Ultimately, though, the Commanders' offensive limitations -- and kicker         Matt Gay 's absence -- meant they didn't get anything out of those early takeaways. Against lesser opponents, they may have been able to survive these missed opportunities, but when facing these Chiefs, teams like Washington must capitalize when given chances to gain an early advantage. Halftime afforded the Chiefs a chance to adjust and it became clear Washington's wasted chances would be its downfall, an unfortunate result for a team that hasn't had much luck with health or circumstance this season.
