Niners go 5-0 and a rare tie - five things from NFL week five
The San Francisco 49ers and the Minnesota Vikings maintain their perfect starts to the season before week five concludes with a Monday night thriller between the Super Bowl favourites.
The Philadelphia Eagles were defeated by the Jacksonville Jaguars, who scored two field goals in the final moments to secure a 25-23 win. The San Francisco 49ers, with their elite defense and new wide receiver Mike Evans, claimed their fifth consecutive victory, defeating the Seattle Seahawks 32-29. The Minnesota Vikings also secured their fifth win of the season, holding the New Orleans Saints to just 13 points.
The Washington Commanders and New York Giants faced a chaotic final game of the day, ending in a 27-27 tie due to a series of errors and poor decision-making. In the AFC, the Baltimore Ravens secured a 30-23 overtime victory over the Atlanta Falcons, with backup quarterback Tyler Huntley throwing for a touchdown with 40 seconds left in regulation and then scoring the game-winner in the extra period.
