Patriots' Maye rebounds as Rams scrape win, Eagles offense falters

New England quarterback Drake Maye erased his early-season turnover woes with a 269-yard, three-touchdown performance that helped the Patriots defeat the Bills 24-20. After an early fumble that marked his eighth turnover in just over 13 quarters, Maye scrambled for a team-high 54 rushing yards and delivered a go-ahead touchdown pass to Efton Chism III in the final minutes. > "This is relieving a little bit," Maye told reporters after receiving a game ball from coach Mike Vrabel.

The Los Angeles Rams survived a near-collapse to beat the Philadelphia Eagles 24-20. Despite outgaining the Eagles 415 to 172 yards and securing twice as many first downs, the Rams committed multiple errors, including two interceptions by Matthew Stafford, a missed field goal and a costly penalty that erased a key run. A late fourth-quarter drive capped by a 7-yard run from Kyren Williams secured the win, keeping the Rams at 2-2 and preserving their chances in the NFC West.

Philadelphia's offense continued to underperform, managing only 172 total yards and failing to sustain drives in the second half. The Eagles missed key players such as DeVonta Smith and Dallas Goedert, and quarterback Jalen Hurts was unable to convert a fourth-down goal-line attempt, sealing the loss.

In other notes, Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak faced criticism for his fourth-down decisions against the Chiefs, while the Houston Texans' defense remained a liability as the team fell to 0-4 despite quarterback C.J. Stroud's strong play. The NFL also saw several officiating incidents, including a coach’s profanity-laden outburst and an alleged expletive from a referee toward a player, prompting league reviews.
