🏈 The Gutter Report: Sunday NFL Recap
From the Gutter to the Gridiron
📢 LFTG’s official Sunday NFL Recap — breaking down every game, fantasy standouts, and the Gutter King of the Week.
🗞️ All Sunday Game Recaps
Cowboys 40, Giants 37 (OT) — Dallas edged this wild shootout. Brandon Aubrey drilled the OT winner from 46 yards after a Donovan Wilson INT. Giants’ Malik Nabers exploded for 167 yards and 2 TDs. Dak Prescott threw for 361 yards, 2 TDs.
🏆 Malik Nabers flexing after one of his touchdowns vs Dallas — a true Gutter King performance.
Falcons 22, Vikings 6 — Atlanta leaned on the ground. Bijan Robinson gashed Minnesota for 143 yards. Vikings’ offense sputtered; Justin Jefferson hit a career milestone catch but never saw the end zone.
💨 Bijan Robinson breaking tackles and grinding out tough yards against Minnesota.
Eagles 20, Chiefs 17 — Philly moved to 2-0 with clutch defense. Rookie Andrew Mukuba snagged the game-sealing INT, while Travis Kelce’s costly drop doomed KC to 0-2.
Bills 30, Jets 10 — Buffalo bulldozed the Jets with 224 rushing yards. James Cook carried the load (132 yards, 2 TDs) while Josh Allen managed the offense like a pro.
Rams 33, Titans 19 — Matthew Stafford tossed 298 yards and 2 TDs. Davante Adams shredded Tennessee’s secondary (100+ yards, 1 TD). Rams stormed back after a slow start.
🎯 Davante Adam’s tracking the ball deep against Tennessee’s secondary.
Colts 29, Broncos 28 — Indy stole it late. A leverage penalty gave Spencer Shrader a second chance to hit the game-winning FG. Jonathan Taylor rushed for 165 yards, carrying the Colts’ offense on his back.
👑 Gutter King of the Week
This week’s Gutter King is Malik Nabers (WR, Giants).
Why: 9 catches, 167 yards, 2 TDs — but more than the stats, it was timing. In a back-and-forth war with Dallas, Nabers was the difference. He put New York on his back and showed he’s already a WR1.
