No. 1 in the 30-second version

Bears beat the Buccaneers 27-24 on Sunday night, with Caleb Williams winning it in crunch time.

Windy City Gridiron said the seventh win came with sloppy play, including Caleb Williams's worst game as a pro and more drops from Rome Odunze. Luther Burden III was concussed on a helmet-to-helmet hit from Rueben Bain Jr. near the end of regulation, and the resulting fumble led to the Buccaneers' tying touchdown and two-point conversion. The site also said the Bears' injuries leave big question marks moving forward.

The Bills improved to 7-1, while the Vikings lost their second straight game and have not scored more than 16 points in their past three. Minnesota started Carson Wentz in place of Kyler Murray, who was out with a hamstring injury, and Wentz finished 8-of-25 for 81 yards with two interceptions. James Cook ran for 107 yards and a touchdown on 31 carries, and Tyler Bass made all three of his field goals to extend his streak to 24.

No. 3 in the 30-second version

Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson is reportedly expected to miss a few weeks with a knee injury.

Stevenson hurt the back of his knee late in Sunday's 45-27 loss to Green Bay, and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported it is a plantaris tendon issue that will not require surgery. He has been one of New England's most dependable backs, with 399 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 102 carries. With TreVeyon Henderson also sidelined indefinitely, Corey Kiner, who has 244 rushing yards this season, is set to take on the lead role.
