The fifth week of the 2017 NFL season was definitely a memorable one. However, most of these memories were created off the field rather than on it this week.

And as always, NFL fans and analysts were never shy to comment on Twitter about the day’s events. Whose tweets were among the best for this week’s group of games?

Roethlisberger cannot stop throwing interceptions against the Jaguars

Having been in the league since 2004, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has had some pretty memorable moments throughout his NFL career. Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars was certainly not one of them as the quarterback threw five interceptions, including two that were returned for touchdowns.

Eagles set a new bar for touchdown celebrations

After hauling in a touchdown pass to give the Philadelphia Eagles a 21-0 lead over the Arizona Cardinals in the first quarter on Sunday, Eagles receiver Torrey Smith and his teammates proceeded to perform a celebration that is what kids these days would call “knocking it out of the park.”

Odell Beckham Jr. suffers brutal injury

In what has already been a forgetful season for the New York Giants, their worst moment likely occurred during their game on Sunday versus the Los Angeles Chargers. During a play towards the end of the fourth quarter, Giants star receiver Odell Beckham Jr. suffered a fractured ankle after his leg got caught under a Chargers defender.

New York fans and Beckham’s fantasy owners acted as most would expect to the news of the receiver likely being out for the rest of the season.

Dolphins line coach resigns over leaked video of him snorting a white substance

In one of the weirder events from this past week in the NFL, a video leaked late Sunday night of Miami Dolphins offensive line coach Chris Foerster snorting a white, powdered substance (one which probably shares the name with a popular soft drink) off a table and professing his love for a certain woman. Since the video popped up online, Foerster has since resigned from his position with the Dolphins.

Aaron Rodgers leads the Packers to yet another comeback win

Down by three with a minute and 13 seconds remaining in Sunday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers brought out his old bag of tricks. Rodgers led the Packers on a nine-play, 75-yard drive that resulted in him throwing the go-ahead touchdown pass to receiver Davante Adams with 11 seconds left on the clock.

Sometimes, it is really unfair how good Rodgers truly is when Green Bay needs him the most.
