Wilson shut out for 1st time on surprising, upset-filled day

Russell Wilson was shut out for the first time in his career. Taylor Heinicke outplayed Tom Brady. Aaron Rodgers had fewer touchdowns than Cam Newton.

Another Sunday was filled with upsets and unpredictability.

For the second straight week, four teams with losing records beat clubs that entered in first place or tied for first. It started with Miami knocking off Baltimore on Thursday night. Washington defeated Tampa. Carolina routed Arizona. Minnesota edged the Chargers.

Even the Detroit Lions joined in on the surprises by avoiding a loss for the first time.

Wilson made a remarkable return from a severe finger injury only to throw a pair of picks in the end zone in Seattle’s 17-0 loss to Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers.
