The 2024 NFL season has already delivered some unforgettable moments, with standout performances and significant milestones lighting up the league. From quarterback duels to defensive feats, the action has kept fans on their toes. Here's a look at the key highlights from the season so far. Lamar Jackson & Joe Burrow's Epic Showdown
In two games between the Baltimore Ravens and Cincinnati Bengals, quarterbacks Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow combined for 1,458 passing yards, 17 touchdown passes, and just one interception. Despite the impressive aerial displays, Baltimore's 42-game streak of 100+ rushing yards was snapped after a kneel-down left them with 99 yards, one shy of the NFL record.
Ravens’ Streak Falls Short of Record
The Ravens had hoped to break the NFL record for consecutive games with 100+ rushing yards, a mark held by the Pittsburgh Steelers (43 games from 1974-1977). Baltimore had previously tied the record from 2018 to 2021, but their streak ended at 42 games this season.
Kansas City Chiefs Keep Winning
The Kansas City Chiefs extended their winning streak to 15 games with a dramatic last-second field-goal block against the Denver Broncos. At 9-0, they remain unbeaten and are riding the longest active win streak in the NFL since the Green Bay Packers' 19-game run in 2010-2011.
Panthers Make History in Munich
The Carolina Panthers secured a historic 37-34 win over the New York Giants in Munich, marking their first back-to-back victories since 2022. The game also became the third international NFL contest to go into overtime, following the 2016 Bengals-Washington matchup.
Vikings Win Despite Struggles
In an unusual turn of events, the Minnesota Vikings won against the Jacksonville Jaguars despite failing to score a touchdown and committing three turnovers. Kicker John Parker Romo scored all of Minnesota's points with four field goals in his NFL debut, keeping their playoff hopes alive.
Cowboys’ Struggles Continue
The Dallas Cowboys were thoroughly outplayed by the Philadelphia Eagles in a 34-6 defeat. Quarterback Dak Prescott struggled with turnovers, and the loss raised questions about the team’s trajectory. In contrast, the Eagles' Jalen Hurts reached 50 career rushing touchdowns, becoming just the third quarterback in NFL history to do so.
Chargers' Defensive Dominance
The Los Angeles Chargers became just the fourth team in the last 40 years to allow 20 or fewer points in each of their first nine games of the season. Their 27-17 win over the Tennessee Titans solidified their strong defensive showing.
Alvin Kamara Becomes Saints' All-Time Leading Rusher
In the New Orleans Saints’ win over the Atlanta Falcons, Alvin Kamara became the franchise's all-time leading rusher. With 6,544 career rushing yards, Kamara surpassed Mark Ingram's 6,500 yards, solidifying his place in Saints history.
Lions Overcome Five Interceptions for Historic Win
The Detroit Lions pulled off a stunning 21-20 victory over the Houston Texans, despite quarterback Jared Goff throwing five interceptions. The Lions improved to 8-1, marking their best start since 1954. They also became the second team in NFL history to win after throwing five interceptions and overcoming a 15-point deficit.
Historic NFL Milestones
Alvin Kamara’s record-breaking performance and the Lions' dramatic win highlighted the NFL’s rich history of individual and team achievements. These milestones reflect not only personal triumphs but also a season filled with high drama and remarkable feats.
As the 2024 season continues, the NFL promises even more excitement, with teams like the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles maintaining their dominance, and new legends emerging along the way.
