Lions 36, Commanders 27 – Goff throws 4 TD passes,  Lions beat Commanders 36-27

  Jared Goff threw two of his four touchdown passes to  Amon-Ra St. Brown to lift the Detroit Lions to a 36-27 win over Washington.  Aidan Hutchinson had three sacks in the first half to help the Lions lead 22-0  at halftime and Will Harris had an interception in the second half to stunt the  Commanders as they rallied. Washington made adjustments to give Carson Wentz  more time in the second half. Wentz took advantage and pulled his team within  seven points with a 15-yard touchdown pass to Curtis Samuel, a 20-yard pass to  Logan Thomas.

Jaguars 24, Colts 0 – Jags’ home win streak vs Colts  reaches 8 with 24-0 shutout

  Trevor Lawrence threw two touchdown passes to  Christian Kirk, and Jacksonville dominated short-handed Indianapolis 24-0 on  Sunday for its eighth consecutive home victory in the series. The Jaguars  sacked Matt Ryan five times, intercepted three of his passes, held reigning NFL  rushing champion Jonathan Taylor to 54 yards and notched their eighth shutout  in franchise history. The past three have come against Indianapolis, which hasn’t  won in Jacksonville since 2014. This one was never in doubt.

Packers 27, Bears 10 – Rodgers, Packers lean on Jones,  take care of Bears 27-10

  Aaron Jones rushed for 132 yards and a touchdown and  caught a scoring pass from Aaron Rodgers, who continued his domination of the  Chicago Bears by leading the Green Bay Packers to a 27-10 victory. Green Bay  bounced back from a season-opening 23-7 loss at Minnesota and beat the Bears  for a seventh straight time, matching its second-longest win streak in the 205-game  history of the NFL’s oldest rivalry. The Packers built a 24-7 halftime lead by  dominating the second period, then made a goal-line stand in the fourth quarter  to thwart a Bears comeback attempt. Rodgers went 19 of 25 for 234 yards and two  touchdowns.

NCAAFB  – Washington moves in; Penn State, Oregon move up

  Washington  made its season debut in The Associated Press college football at No. 18 and  Penn State and Oregon moved into the top 15 after all three had decisive  nonconference victories. A weekend filled with blowouts by highly ranked teams  kept the top 10 almost unchanged. No. 1 Georgia picked up six more first-place  votes in the AP Top 25. The Bulldogs are up to 59 first-place votes and 1,569  points. No. 2 Alabama received three first-place votes and No. 3 Ohio State got  one. Penn State jumped eight spots to No. 14 after routing Auburn and Oregon  moved up 10 to No. 15 after beating BYU.

NCAAFB  – Arizona State fires Edwards following loss to Eastern Michigan

  Arizona  State fired football coach Herm Edwards in his fifth season following an ugly  home loss to Eastern Michigan and a lingering NCAA investigation into illegal  recruiting practices.

Edwards went 46-26 at Arizona State, including 1-2  this season.

NCAAFB  – Big Ten – Nebraska fires defensive coach 1 week after ousting Frost

  A  week after Nebraska fired head coach Scott Frost, the team’s defensive  coordinator is out. Interim head coach Mickey Joseph said Sunday that defensive  coordinator Erik Chinander was fired a day after Nebraska gave up 580 yards and  49 points in a lopsided loss to No. 6 Oklahoma. Chinander had led Nebraska’s  defense since Frost took over the team in 2018, but his unit floundered this year  as the Cornhuskers fell to 1-3. A week before the 49-14 loss to Oklahoma,  Nebraska gave up 642 yards in a 45-42 upset by Georgia Southern that preceded  Frost’s firing. Special teams coordinator Bill Busch was promoted to defensive  coordinator.

NASCAR – NASCAR faces more questions about new car  after Bristol bash

  At least a dozen of the playoff drivers had some sort  of problem with NASCAR’s new Next Gen car Saturday night at Bristol. The spec  car that has leveled the playing field was exposed for myriad durability issues  that have followed it in its entire debut season. The Ford camp suffered a rash  of blown tires, Toyota was plagued by power steering failures, drivers racing  for the win were knocked from contention for any number of mechanical gremlins  and passing was a most difficult task. Now NASCAR is facing an entire new set  of questions about its new car.
