NFL Week 8 grades for every team: Cowboys get an 'F' for choking, Steelers surge to 'A+'

Welcome to the Week 8 grades!

This might go down as the most bizarre Sunday in NFL history: We saw one team win a game without completing a single pass, we saw a final score that's never happened before and we saw the Ravens lose two quarterbacks to injury before the first half was even over. 

Here's a closer look at some of the strange things that happened: 

Baker Mayfield went 0-for-3 passing in the Buccaneers' 16-0 win over the Falcons. That stat line makes the Bucs the first team since 1974 to have zero completions in a win. 

The Falcons gave up 324 rushing yards to the Bucs, which is the most they've ever surrendered in a game in franchise history. 

The Ravens became the first team since 2017 to have three different quarterbacks throw a pass in the first half of a game. They lost Lamar Jackson to a thumb injury on the first offensive play and then they ended up losing Tyler Huntley to a toe injury in the second quarter. That left undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano as the only healthy QB on the roster. 

The Bengals beat the Titans 43-36, giving us a scorigami (that means it was the first time in NFL history that final score has ever happened). 

The Cowboys blew a two-touchdown lead in the fourth quarter, which had never happened before. The Cowboys were 69-0 at home when leading by 14 points or more in the fourth quarter before blowing a lead and losing to the Cardinals on Sunday. 

Jahmyr Gibbs ran through the Vikings with 153 yards on the ground, making him the first player since 2011 to rush for at least 150 yards against a team that went into a game with a record of 6-0 or better. 

Speaking of Gibbs, let's get to this week's grades, starting with Detroit's big win.

Bengals (5-2) 43-36 over Titans (1-7)

Cardinals (3-5) 33-30 in OT over Cowboys (3-5)
