NFL Week 5 winners and losers: Commanders botch overtime as 49ers take command of NFC West

Jayden Daniels and Cam Skattebo failed to execute in the clutch, while the 49ers delivered a third divisional win None of the four teams in the NFC East won a game in Week 5 despite the fact that two of them played against each other. Following the Dallas Cowboys' embarrassing loss on "Thursday Night Football" and the Philadelphia Eagles' last-second collapse in London, the rival New York Giants and Washington Commanders played to a 27-27 tie. If any of those teams came away from the week feeling good about themselves, it was the Giants, who escaped defeat in that draw. But they tossed away a chance to win that game, too.
On the other side of the country, there is a clear top dog in the NFC West. The San Francisco 49ers might be the best team in football. Their 5-0 start and the statement win over the Seattle Seahawks are impossible to ignore. And back on the topic of this week's international game, the Jacksonville Jaguars stunned the Eagles with a walk-off field goal. It was fitting that they put the game away on special teams, considering the third phase was, for multiple reasons, the story of the day in England. That narrow victory improved them to 4-1 and made them one of the biggest winners in the NFL
