Top 10 games of the NFL season so far

Tennessee 13, Baltimore 10

Probably the most physical game of the first half of the season, with arguably the two best defenses matching each other hit for hit.

Atlanta 22, Chicago 20

An ill-advised squib kick by the Bears (and an alleged late-starting clock) helped put the Falcons in position for a game-winning field goal by Jason Elam.

St. Louis 19, Washington 17

The upset of the year so far. The Rams win their first game of the season in interim coach Jim Haslett's debut against a team that proved it wasn't quite ready for the spotlight.

Washington 26, Dallas 24

The Redskins win their final game at Texas Stadium, handing the then-high-flying Cowboys their first loss of the season.

Indianapolis 31, Houston 27

Sage Rosenfels went from hero to goat in a span of four minutes as two late turnovers allowed the Colts to pull victory out of the jaws of defeat.

Saints 37, Chargers 32

Even without Reggie Bush and a limited LaDainian Tomlinson, Londoners in Wembley Stadium were treated to an offensive explosion, thanks to Drew Brees' three-TD day.

Minnesota 30, New Orleans 27

This Monday-nighter had it all: punt return TDs (two for Reggie Bush), FG blocks returned for TDs, de-cleating hits, stifling defense (just ask Adrian Peterson) and final-minute drama.

Carolina 26, San Diego 24

Jake Delhomme connected with Dante Rosario on the final play to kick off the NFL season with a bang.

Denver 39, San Diego 38

A gutsy call by Mike Shanahan to go for two and the lead paid off when Jay Cutler connected with rookie Eddie Royal, sending the Chargers to their second-straight heartbreaking loss.

Dallas 41, Philadelphia 37

History will remember this classic shootout for the 54 points scored in the first half and rookie DeSean Jackson's unthinkable gaffe as he was about to cross the goal line.
