NFL Scores Week 3: What Are the Most Surprising Week 3 Results?

The Buffalo Bills and Detroit Lions are 3-0. I repeat, the Buffalo Bills and Detroit Lions are 3-0.

And both teams used 21- and 20-point comebacks, respectively, to pull off victories.

You don't have to dig around to find the most surprising thing that happened in the early games today in the NFL.

The Lions have defeated two 2010 playoff caliber teams in Kansas City and Tampa Bay, and used a 20-point comeback on the road to get their second road victory in a row.

That statistic, alone, is a surprise. But, the Lions are beginning to look more and more like a serious contender. 

Calvin Johnson's catch in overtime was remarkable, further proving why he's not only, possibly, the best receiver in the NFL, but also potentially could go down as one of the best all-time.

While many expected the Lions to be increasingly better, nobody saw them starting 3-0 and showing the poise and development they have shown so far.

The Bills, on the other hand, had no expectations coming into the season.

They share a division with the New England Patriots and New York Jets. As of now, the Bills, at worst, will finish tied for first place in the AFC when tonight is all said and done.

Buffalo has ridden the arm of an Ivy League quarterback in Ryan Fitzpatrick, and a no-name tailback in Fred Jackson, to a stunning start to the year.

Their offense, which is top-five in rushing and utilizes a versatile wide open passing game, is starting to look more and more potent.

This is a team with a defense that could actually win a consistent basis. Fans are going to believe that any time their team defeats the Patriots.

The other surprise of the day was the way the Eagles fell flat on their face. Sure, Michael Vick has been mauled by defenses in the past two games, but the Eagles were expected to give the Giants offense enough trouble to pull out a win at home.

Instead, the Eagles are now just 1-2, and their star quarterback has suffered multiple nagging injuries that could make for a bumpy road in the coming weeks.

Philadelphia better be careful, or opposing fan bases are going to start laughingly telling them to dream on.
