Week 5 of the NFL season is in the books after the Las Vegas Raiders defeated the Green Bay Packers 17-13 on Monday Night.

The San Francisco 49ers and Philadelphia Eagles, both 5-0, are the only two remaining undefeated teams. The Carolina Panthers and their No. 1 overall pick Bryce Young, are the lone winless team at 0-5.

We’ll take you through important moments from Sunday’s action and showcase the scores as well as updated division standings.

Biggest storylines from Week 5

San Francisco demolishes Dallas 45-10

The 49ers easily defeated the Cowboys, which, on paper, was their toughest test of the season so far. Kyle Shanahan’s squad scored three first-half touchdowns, giving the Bay Area team a 21-7 lead at halftime.

San Francisco went on a 21-0 run in the second half and outscored Dallas 21-3. The defense picked off Dak Prescott on three consecutive drives and put the icing on the cake early in the fourth quarter when Brock Purdy found fullback Kyle Juszczyk for a 1-yard touchdown, extending the lead to 35-10.

George Kittle paced the San Francisco offense on the eve of his 30th birthday with three touchdowns on three receptions for 67 yards. Purdy, now 10-0 in the regular season as a starter, went 17-of-24 for 252 yards and four touchdowns.

Sportsbooks have the 49ers as the favorites to win the Super Bowl at +470.

Jets beat Broncos 31-21 for Nathaniel Hackett

It’s been a difficult start to the season for the Jets. After Aaron Rodgers’ season-ending achilles injury and a controversial loss in week 4 against the defending Super Bowl champion Chiefs, New York bounced back in the face of adversity.

During the offseason, Broncos head coach Sean Payton ripped into Jets’ offensive coordinator Nathanial Hackett, who coached Denver last season, calling his tenure “one of the worst coaching jobs in the history of the NFL.”

Rodgers and head coach Robert Saleh defended Hackett and judging by CJ Uzomah’s passionate pregame speech in which he said, “Let’s win for Hackett,” along with other expletives describing Payton, the Jets had this game circled on their calendar.

After a close first and second quarter, which ended in favor of the Jets 15-13, New York outscored Denver 23-8 during the second half. A 39-yard fumble return for a touchdown by Bryce Hall secured the 31-21 win in the revenge game for the 2.5-point underdogs.

New York running back Breece Hall led the Jets offense with 22 carries for 177 yards and a touchdown.
