Welcome to Week 2 of the 2025 NFL season. The first wave of regular-season action was plenty dramatic, with big names like Aaron Rodgers and Justin Herbert showing up with highlight-reel finishes. And the second week has arguably been just as, if not more, noteworthy.
Rodgers, for example, took a step backward with the Pittsburgh Steelers in his home debut wearing black and gold, tossing a pair of interceptions in a loss to the Seattle Seahawks. AFC powers like the Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens had no such trouble Sunday, combining for 71 points in decisive victories.
Another Steelers connection — current New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson — had perhaps the most surprising performance of the day, launching 450 yards through the air but failing to finish against the Dallas Cowboys. And one of the Steelers’ rivals, the Cincinnati Bengals, may be in deep trouble despite advancing to 2-0 thanks to a certain someone going down with an injury against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Which teams fared the best (or worst) in Week 2? Here are our grades for every completed game:
