And then, there was one.

The Kansas City Chiefs are the lone remaining unbeaten team in the NFL after a 28-18 win over the San Francisco 49ers at Levi's Stadium. The Chiefs defense terrorized Brock Purdy, who threw three interceptions in the game. It didn't help the San Francisco cause that Deebo Samuel came down with an illness on Sunday before the game and played jut three plays. Also, Brandon Aiyuk left the game with a knee injury just 37 seconds before halftime. The Chiefs piled up 184 rushing yards in the win.

In Washington, it was smooth sailing for the Commanders who made short work of the Panthers in a 40-7 win, but the game may be more about what Washington lost. Jayden Daniels left the game with a rib injury on the Commanders' first drive. He'll have more testing on Monday.

In Los Angeles, the Rams held on to beat the Raiders 20-15. Kyren Williams had two rushing touchdowns for Los Angeles in the win. The Raiders did lose starting quarterback Adian O'Connell to a thumb injury. Gardner Minshew finished the game in his place.

  • 49ers get in the end zone with another Brock Purdy QB sneak

    The 49ers did not get the two-point conversion and they stay down by 10 with just over a minute to play. Thats two rushing touchdowns on the day for Purdy.

  • Trent Williams ejected for throwing a punch at Bryan Cook

    Replay assistance in New York got involved to help make the call

  • Rams hold on vs. Raiders

  • Mecole Hardman all but ices it for Kansas City

    If Mecole Hardman hadn't earned himself a not-so-friendly middle name from 49ers fans at the Super Bowl, he may have in this game. This 18-yard TD run put Kansas City up by 16 with 3:09 to play in the game.

  • Purdy picked off in the end zone

    It's Jaden Hicks this time, ending the 49ers' drive. The Kansas City defense is coming up huge again, and check out Chris Jones on the delayed pressure — defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo certainly has some creative ways of creating confusion for offenses.

  • 49ers make a big play on the outside

    Brock Purdy connects with Jacob Cowing for a 41-yard play to get back in scoring position. San Fran is still down two scores, but they'll do well to get one of them in this goal-to-go situation.

  • Washington is 5-2 and atop the NFC East

  • Patrick Mahomes on 4th and goal for the TD

    A running back often gets rewarded after a long run with a chance to run the ball into the end zone. Well in this case Mahomes called his own number after his 33-yarder earlier on the drive and the Chiefs are up 21-12 in the fourth quarter.

  • Partick Mahomes turns in another highlight-reel scramble

    This one went for 33 yards, and is going to be on #15's 2024 highlight reel, for sure.

  • Another Brock Purdy interception

    This one comes on a 3rd down, and is a result of Purdy and his receivers not being on the same page. Remember, Jauan Jennings, Brandon Ayiuk and Deebo Samuel are all out of the game. It's the second interception of the game for the Chiefs defense.
