- San Francisco 49ers beat the Seattle Seahawks on the road in a thrilling NFC West clash to improve to 5-0 and remain the season's only unbeaten team mentioned through Week Five
- Drake Maye of the New England Patriots accounted for five total touchdowns in a rout of the Las Vegas Raiders, described as 'another big outing' for the quarterback
- The result tightens the NFC West standings, with the unbeaten 49ers extending their lead over a Seattle team that absorbed a home divisional loss
- Week Five of the 2026 NFL season is dated Monday, 12 October 2026, situating both the 49ers' win and the Patriots' rout within the same slate
Why it matters: The 49ers' 5-0 start keeps them as the only unbeaten team through Week Five and tightens their grip on the NFC West after a divisional road win over Seattle. Maye's five-touchdown outing against the Raiders gives New England a marquee offensive performance to build on and cements his emergence as a scoring threat.
