NFL Week 3 takeaways: What we learned, big reaction questions and stat leaders for every game

Week 3 of the 2021 NFL season brought us some crazy endings. Through a wild final two minutes, the Chargers edged past Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs after Kansas City struggled with ball security. The Ravens avoided an upset loss to the Lions with a record-setting 66-yard field goal from Justin Tucker that rang off the crossbar and went through to end the game. The Falcons won a battle of winless teams, hitting a field goal to beat the Giants.

Elsewhere, the Cardinals overcame an early deficit against the Jaguars to roll to 3-0, and the Steelers' offensive issues continued in a loss to the Bengals.
