NFL results & best of week 11: Broncos Super Bowl bid, Chiefs labour

It was all happening in Pittsburgh’s win over Cincinnati, as Aaron Rodgers picked up what could be a serious wrist injury before Jalen Ramsey was ejected for aiming a punch at Bengals receiver Ja’Marr Chase. He later accused Chase of spitting at him, which the receiver denied.

“I’m sure the NFL, they’ll do their due diligence,” Ramsey said. “They have got 100 cameras out there. They can investigate. They can see everything. It’s facts.”

Davante Adams claimed his 1,000th catch as the Rams just held on to beat the Seahawks in a huge NFC West showdown to go to 8-2 – but both defences emerged with more credit than their offences.

Sam Darnold in particular had a rough ride with four interceptions, but then Matthew Stafford failed to have any real control as Seattle outgained his side by 165 yards and had 15 minutes more possession.

“I don’t think I played good at all,” said Shedeur Sanders after making his debut in Cleveland’s defeat against Baltimore.

The Browns fans were clearly happy to see Sanders, but head coach Kevin Stefanski said that Dillon Gabriel will start next week if he clears concussion protocol, otherwise Sanders will get his first start.

During the game, Myles Garrett had four sacks to make it 15 for the season and become the first player to record 12 sacks in six straight years in the NFL.

Arizona quarterback Jacoby Brissett also set a new NFL record with 47 completed passes – the most ever in a regular season game – as the Cardinals were forced to throw when going behind early in their defeat to the 49ers.

Speaking of San Francisco – they are now 7-4 after Brock Purdy threw three touchdowns and recorded a fine 133.5 passer rating on his return from injury.

With Christian McCaffrey having another three-touchdown game, the Niners could be primed for a big finish to the season.
