Let’s take a moment to discuss Week 5 NFL football and the top three team performances.

DeVon Achane’s teammates are learning to brace for a big play each time the newcomer running back touches the ball. The Miami Dolphins continues to have big rushing yards as they secure a victory against the New York Giants with the scoreboard of 31 – 16.

Brock Purdy and the San Francisco 49ers quickly turned the biggest challenge of their young season into laugher. The Niners (5-0) knocked the Cowboys out of the playoffs in tight games the past two seasons, adding intrigue to this early season matchup between perceived contenders.

Let’s just say, it has been a rough patch for the Chicago Bears with a (0-4) start toward the new season. Somehow, it was a miracle on Thursday night for the Bears. The Bears showed mercy against the Commanders on Fed-Ex Field with the scoreboard of 40 – 20. Justin Fields and DJ Moore connected eight times for 230 yards and three touchdowns to give the embattled Bears their first win of the season, beating the Washington Commanders 40-20 on Thursday night.
