The Atlanta Falcons handed the San Francisco 49ers their first loss of the season with a 29-20 victory on Sunday, fueled by three touchdown passes from Michael Penix Jr. and 13 points off four turnovers. In a playful postgame move, Atlanta trolled San Francisco's "Faithful to the Bay" motto by writing "Faithful to The 🅰" instead.

The New York Giants escaped a 27-21 overtime win over the Houston Texans, with Cam Skattebo's 42-yard rush setting up the game-winning touchdown. The Giants trolled Houston's "battle red" uniforms with posts like "left them on red" and a SpongeBob SquarePants image captioned "Wins are bigger in Texas."

The Cleveland Browns secured a 27-24 win over the Tennessee Titans with a late field goal, marking quarterback Deshaun Watson's fifth game-winning drive this season. Playing in Nashville, Cleveland promoted a new "Dawg Pound Saloon" on Broadway.
