          From historic blowouts to surprising upsets and more, Week 5 of the 2022 NFL season has been one for the books.

          The first took place in London, as the New York Giants and Green Bay Packers faced off for the first game of the day.

          Green Bay's international debut was spoiled by the Giants' comeback win. New York, which also played in its first regular-season NFL game across the pond, remains unbeaten in London, with one win each at Wembley (2007), Twickenham (2016) and now Tottenham.

          Coach Brian Daboll has led New York to its best start since 2009 with a 4-1 record, which has given fans in the Big Apple a reason to celebrate. It also allowed for the social media team to get creative in celebrating the Giants' success.

          Baltimore Ravens 19, Cincinnati Bengals 17

          The Ravens and Bengals clashed in prime time for the top spot in the AFC North. Despite Baltimore battling offensive troubles, its defense held Cincinnati scoreless in two quarters.

          Justin Tucker kicked four field goals, including a 58-yarder and the go-ahead 43-yarder as time expired to give Baltimore the victory and sole possession of first place in the division. The team used a clip of Tucker to summarize its post-game mood.

          Three weeks after beating last year's AFC champions, the Cowboys faced last year's Super Bowl champs. Dallas was an underdog in both games but managed to earn a victory in each instance.

          Los Angeles is known to be a hub for stars, but according to Dallas, there was one that stood out among them all.

          Buffalo Bills 38, Pittsburgh Steelers 3

          Josh Allen set the tone on the third play of the game when he connected with Gabe Davis for a 98-yard touchdown. He threw for 300 yards and four touchdowns in the first half alone, while the Steelers' offense sputtered in Kenny Pickett's starting debut.

          Buffalo used a Pittsburgh icon in its celebratory postgame tweet.

          Los Angeles Chargers 30, Cleveland Browns 28

          The Chargers and Browns had the highest-scoring half in the NFL last season with 56 combined points in the second half. The first half of Sunday's game had the makings of another high-scoring affair with 38 combined points.

          The scoring subsided after halftime as Los Angeles notched a comeback victory, thanks to a career-best day from Austin Ekeler and a missed 54-yard field goal attempt by Browns kicker Cade York with 11 seconds left.

          The Chargers celebrated their escape from the Dawg Pound appropriately.

          Minnesota Vikings 29, Chicago Bears 22

          The Vikings got off to a hot start as Kirk Cousins completed 17 consecutive passes and held a 21-3 lead in the second quarter. Chicago fought back in the second half and earned its first lead in the fourth quarter, but that was short-lived as Cousins scored the go-ahead touchdown on the next drive.

          Minnesota has been a problem at home for its NFC North rivals. The team's social media account pointed out its success by quoting Jack Harlow after the win.
