NFL scores: Chiefs stay unbeaten vs. 49ers, Commanders destroy Panthers but lose Jayden Daniels

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.

LIVE COVERAGE IS OVER48 updates

  • 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

  • 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.

  • Raiders defense comes up with a turnover to get Las Vegas in back in the game

  • Chuba Hubbard gets Carolina on the board

    It’s been a dismal day for the Panthers, but the bagel is off the scoreboard after this 4-yard TD run.

  • Washington dominating vs. Carolina

    At the end of three quarters, it’s a total blowout in Washington as the Commanders lead the Panthers 37-0. Marcus Mariota, who replaced an injured Jayden Daniels in the first quarter, was 15-of-19 for 165 yards and two touchdowns through three quarters, and Brian Robinson Jr. has 71 yards and a touchdown on the ground.

  • Brock Purdy sneaks it in for San Francisco

    A clever QB sneak leads to the TD. Anders Carlson missed the PAT, and that leaves the Chiefs with a 14-12 lead.

  • Mahomes picked again

    Deommodore Lenoir with a potentially game-changing play as Xavier Worthy falls down, and the 49ers are starting with the ball just outside of the red zone.

  • That’s two TD on the day for Kyren WIlliams

  • 49ers settle for field goal to close the first half

    14-6 at the break in San Francisco. The 49ers got their first sustained drive of the game going on their final series, but were unable to punch it in from inside the 10-yard-line. Kansas City will receive the second half kickoff.

  • Brandon Aiyuk down on the field after a big hit

    The 49ers are driving, trying to get a late first half score, and Aiyuk needed help from the trainers after a catch that got San Francisco inside the Red Zone.

  • 49ers in business with a BIG chunk play

    Brock Purdy finds George Kittle for a big gainer — 41 yards — to get the 49ers in scoring position late i the first half.

  • Deebo Samuel has played just three snaps in today’s game
