Week 2 of the 2024 NFL season delivered several surprising results, leaving fans and bettors alike in disbelief. Here are the biggest upsets:
Vikings Shock the 49ers (23-17)
The Minnesota Vikings pulled off a stunning upset over the San Francisco 49ers, stifling an offense that had thrived in Week 1. Brock Purdy struggled, posting one of his lowest performances as the 49ers’ signature yards-after-catch (YAC) game failed to materialize, averaging just 3.1 YAC per reception.
Buccaneers Edge Lions (16-14)
Despite being outgained by the Detroit Lions by 247 yards, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers capitalized on the Lions’ red-zone inefficiency to steal a 16-14 win. Detroit went 1-for-7 in red-zone trips, with costly mistakes including a crucial late-game interception and a turnover on downs with just over a minute left in the game.
Raiders Overcome Ravens’ Fourth-Quarter Collapse (26-23)
The Las Vegas Raiders engineered a remarkable comeback to defeat the Baltimore Ravens, who held a 10-point lead in the fourth quarter. Gardner Minshew led the Raiders with a pair of late-game touchdowns, sealing the upset as Baltimore’s defense faltered under pressure.
