NFL Week 12 scores: Shedeur Sanders era begins with a win

NFL Week 12 may have been the most exciting week of the season so far.

At least eight games were settled by one score or less – even from the start with the Houston Texans’ stunning victory over the Buffalo Bills on Thursday and it continued with the Dallas Cowboys coming back to top the Philadelphia Eagles in a crucial divisional game on Sunday.

Meanwhile, the era of Shedeur Sanders began with a win for the Cleveland Browns. Sanders became the first quarterback since 1995 to win his first career start with the Browns. The rookie had a 66-yard touchdown pass to Dylan Sampson to help secure the victory.
