Eagles–Packers under the lights; Berlin delivers an OT epic; Chargers clip Steelers — your NFL names & notes, now
Eagles–Packers

The week’s search heat spans Eagles–Packers, a history-making afternoon at Olympic Stadium Berlin, and a West Coast night where “Dicker the Kicker” stretched the uprights. Here’s a clean, up-to-the-minute brief keyed to the players and teams you asked about.

Eagles game & Green Bay Packers game: prime-time with rookie spotlights

Eagles at Packers closes Week 10 on Monday night with Green Bay leaning on a fast, youth-heavy front seven and Philadelphia testing new edges and backers in rotation. Two rookies to watch from your list:

  • Edgerrin Cooper (Packers LB): Active, range-y, and trending upward in snap share. He entered the night without an injury designation and has been a tone-setter against perimeter runs and outlet routes.

  • Jalyx Hunt (Eagles EDGE): A rotational rush piece whose workload has ticked up in sub packages; flashes speed-to-power on long downs and special teams value.

Keep an eye on how Green Bay handles tempo and whether Philadelphia’s pass rush forces quick-game answers. If this tilts into a one-score fourth quarter, situational penalties and red-zone finishes will decide it.

Falcons vs. Colts — Berlin thriller at Olympiastadion

The NFL’s debut at Olympiastadion Berlin delivered a wild one: Colts 31, Falcons 25 (OT). Jonathan Taylor ripped off a monster day (including a long fourth-quarter house call) and closed it with the overtime winner. Beyond the box score, late-game mechanics and an OT coin-toss correction became talking points, but the headline is simple: Taylor owned the afternoon and the Colts handled the moment after regulation.

Why it matters for your player searches:

  • Jessie Bates III was busy in run fits all day.

  • Bud Dupree and Tuli Tuipulotu watchers will note: edges who set a firm edge versus Taylor’s bounce/back-cut looks were at a premium — Indy still found daylight.

Chargers steady the Steelers — and the kickers took center stage

Chargers 25, Steelers 10: Los Angeles stacked long drives and leaned on defense, but the viral moment was a 59-yard field goal from Cameron “Dicker the Kicker” Dicker to push the lead to 15–3. For the skill names you flagged:

  • Ladd McConkey (Chargers): The rookie wideout continues to function as the timing valve — option routes, glance/slant, and jet motion to stress leverage. His per-game production has climbed as his snap share stabilizes.

  • Alex Highsmith / Chris Boswell (Steelers): Highsmith generated pressure in spurts; Boswell hit early but the offense couldn’t finish drives.

If you’re tracking McConkey Chargers week to week, note how often he’s used to unlock play-action crossers and quick perimeter screens; that usage is sticky in this offense.

Bills score: Miami snaps the hex

Dolphins 30, Bills 13 in South Florida. Buffalo was held to one touchdown while Miami stacked efficient red-zone trips. For your list: Brian Robinson Jr. is unrelated to this matchup, but the takeaway for AFC watchers is Buffalo’s need to stabilize pass pro and third-down sequencing heading into late November.

Quick-hit name checks from your list

  • “99-yard touchdown”: Always a watch phrase, but none changed standings this weekend; the Berlin explosive from Taylor was short of 99 yet served the same momentum punch.

  • Drake Maye stats / Patriots: The rookie’s arc remains week-to-week; look for compressed reads and RPOs to ease the load when New England leans run-first.

  • Greg Dortch: Continues to carve situational targets as a slot/return hybrid.

  • Colby Parkinson / Terrance Ferguson: Tight ends featured as chip-release outlets league-wide this week amid heavy edge pressure.

  • Michael Badgley: Drilled a late kick in Berlin during regulation; special teams mattered in every phase overseas.

  • Danielle Hunter / Donte Jackson / Cam Bynum: Defensive names to circle for splash plays — pressures, pass breakups, and turnovers remain their path to swinging scripts.

  • Ameer Abdullah / Ashton Dulin: Depth specialists whose touches spike in two-minute or gadget looks; check inactives and return roles before kickoff.

  • Jake Bates: Big-leg storyline to monitor weekly; roster churn at kicker remains high league-wide.

  • JSN (Jaxon Smith-Njigba): Usage trends toward chain-moving outs and glance routes; explosives come when motion stacks free his release.

  • Treylon Burks: Health and role remain the variables; when active, he’s a boundary shot and dig-route threat.

What’s next

  • Eagles–Packers decides the week’s final narrative: if Green Bay’s young linebackers (Cooper chief among them) hold up in space and the Packers finish red-zone trips, the upset door stays open; otherwise Philadelphia’s trench depth grinds it down late.

  • Scoreboard watch: Chargers gain ground with a clean November schedule; Colts carry Berlin momentum home; Bills must reset quickly.
