We saw some wild action in the NFL during Week 7, and we have the top 10 highlights of the early window for you to enjoy.

10. Kirk Cousins runs for glory

The Washington Redskins may have fallen to the Detroit Lions, but it wasn’t because of Kirk Cousins. The quarterback playing on the franchise tag took off in the fourth quarter and found the end zone on a 19-yard run in the final two minutes.

For the Redskins, the touchdown put them up 17-13 in the last 65 seconds, only to see Matthew Stafford drive the Lions down the field for the winning score.

9. Jeremy Hill breaks it

The Cincinnati Bengals entered Sunday at 2-4 and desperately needed to beat the Cleveland Browns to stay in the AFC playoff hunt. Beat them they did, as the Bengals followed the lead of both Jeremy Hill and A.J. Green (more on him in a bit).

Hill was able to rush for 168 yards on only nine carries, including a 74-yard touchdown in the third quarter. Hill’s jaunt put Cincinnati ahead by a score of 28-17, a lead the Bengals would hold for the balance of the game. Cincinnati is now 3-4 and while the AFC North still goes through the Pittsburgh Steelers, it is back in the mic.
