LONDON (AP) — Cam Little kicked a 57-yard field goal as time expired and the Jacksonville Jaguars beat the Philadelphia Eagles 19-17 after Ameer Abdullah’s 53-yard kickoff return left 1 second left in a wild finish at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday.
The Eagles had taken a 17-16 lead on Jake Elliott’s 48-yard field goal with 8 seconds left — after Little’s extra-point attempt was wide left following Parker Washington’s 27-yard touchdown reception late in the fourth quarter.
Philadelphia, which slipped to 2-3 for the first time since 2021, played without leading rusher Saquon Barkley and receiver DeVonta Smith and with a makeshift offensive line.
Trevor Lawrence completed 24 of 39 passes for 331 yards and two touchdowns — both to Washington — along with an interception for the Jaguars (4-1).
TEXANS 26, TITANS 3
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — C.J. Stroud threw for 261 yards and a touchdown and ran for another score and Houston snapped its winless start to the season by routing Tennessee.
This is the second straight season Houston (1-4) ended an opening winless skid by beating Tennessee. This time, the Texans forced two turnovers and Will Anderson Jr. had three of Houston’s four sacks. Ka’imi Fairbairn kicked four field goals with the Texans taking a 12-3 halftime lead.
Houston played keep-away over the second and third quarters outgaining the Titans 225-49 and outscoring them 16-0. The Texans held Tennessee to a season-low 187 total yards.
PACKERS 31, BEARS 7
GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Christian Watson caught two long touchdown passes from Jordan Love, MarShawn Lloyd also scored twice and Green Bay exacted a measure of revenge against Chicago by trouncing them.
Love went 25 of 31 for 367 yards, the highest total by a Packers quarterback against the Bears at Lambeau Field. He connected with Watson on a 42-yard touchdown in the first quarter and a 53-yarder in the third.
Green Bay had lost three of four to the Bears and blew a 21-3 halftime lead in a 31-27 NFC wild-card playoff loss at Chicago last season. Caleb Williams celebrated that come-from-behind victory by grating cheese on the field, poking fun at Green Bay’s Cheesehead fan base.
Williams missed a third straight game Sunday with a hamstring injury, and Tyson Bagent started in his place. Xavier McKinney intercepted two passes from Bagent as the Packers forced five turnovers.
VIKINGS 23, SAINTS 13
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Justin Jefferson highlighted his return to Minnesota’s lineup with a leaping touchdown catch, Aaron Jones made up for an early fumble with a pivotal, fourth-quarter touchdown and the Vikings remained unbeaten with a victory over slumping New Orleans.
Will Reichard made all three of his field-goal attempts from 40 or more yards for the Vikings (5-0), including a 55-yarder to put Minnesota up 10 in the fourth quarter and all but doom the Saints (1-4) to a third straight loss — all in the Superdome.
Jones finished with 113 yards rushing on 25 carries. Jefferson, who sat out Week 4 with an ankle injury, caught six passes for 79 yards from Kyler Murray, who threw for 229 yards and a TD without a turnover and rushed for 51 yards.
The Vikings, who came in allowing an NFL-low 12.8 points per game, gave up only one offensive touchdown and held New Orleans to 142 yards.
BENGALS 31, DOLPHINS 24
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Joe Burrow threw four touchdown passes, safety Jordan Battle had a pair of interceptions and Cincinnati beat Miami.
Ja’Marr Chase had been questionable after suffering a concussion last week against Jacksonville, caught six passes for 77 yards, including a highlight-reel, one-handed 45-yard touchdown catch that made it 28-10.
Burrow completed 23 of 32 passes for 190 yards and also threw touchdowns to tight ends Mike Gesicki and Tanner Hudson and running back Samaje Perine. The Bengals quarterback took advantage of the Dolphins’ young secondary, completing passes to nine different receivers.
Battle picked off Malik Willis on back-to-back drives in the second quarter. The veteran had a big game after saying this week he had a tell on how Willis throws the football — pointing out the Dolphins quarterback apparently taps the ball before he throws.
PATRIOTS 45, RAIDERS 17
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Drake Maye threw for four touchdown passes and ran for another score, and New England rolled past Las Vegas.
Maye was 26 of 34 for 374 yards passing in the second 300-yard game of his career. Two TDs went to Pop Douglas and one each to Hunter Henry and Kyle Williams. Rhamondre Stevenson added a scoring run.
Maye is the first with back-to-back games of at least three TDs passing for New England since Tom Brady in 2018. It was also Maye’s first game this season without a turnover. He scored on a 3-yard run.
The Patriots (3-2) finished with a season-high 536 yards and forced a fumble despite playing without injured receiver Mack Hollins and cornerbacks Christian Gonzalez and Carlton Davis III.
STEELERS 34, COLTS 22
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Jaylen Warren piled up 188 total yards and two long touchdowns — one rushing and one receiving — to lead Pittsburgh past Indianapolis.
The Steelers (3-2) shook off a loss at Cleveland by relying on Warren and a defense that frequently bent but rarely broke.
Warren caught six passes for 87 yards, including an 80-yard catch-and-run score in the first quarter, and added 101 more on the ground, highlighted by a 50-yard sprint to the end zone in the third quarter in which the typically low-key former undrafted free agent hurdled across the goal line in celebration.
Aaron Rodgers completed 22 of 31 passes for 235 yards and three scores. While Warren did most of the work on their 80-yard connection that gave Pittsburgh’s offense an early jolt, the 42-year-old Rodgers paid the price by absorbing a crushing hit from 314-pound Colts defensive tackle Grover Stewart as he flicked the ball to the do-everything running back.
JETS 17, BROWNS 12
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Braelon Allen ran 22 yards for the go-ahead touchdown late in the fourth quarter after New York recovered a fumbled punt snap and the Jets ended a three-game skid with a victory over Cleveland.
Rookie David Bailey had three of New York’s eight sacks of Deshaun Watson, and Geno Smith had a touchdown pass to Garrett Wilson on the Jets’ first drive, helping snap the Browns’ three-game winning streak.
The Browns had a final chance when they got the ball with 1:41 left and no timeouts. But New York’s defense, as it did all game, stiffened and sealed it when Will McDonald had a strip-sack of Watson on fourth down and recovered the fumble.
Smith finished 17 of 30 for 182 yards and the TD to Wilson, who had seven catches for 104 yards, and Allen ran for 116 yards and the winning touchdown on 24 carries.
COMMANDERS 27, GIANTS 27, OT
LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — Jayden Daniels took off on an ill-advised scramble in the closing seconds of overtime with the Commanders in field goal range and Washington was unable to stop the clock before time expired, settling for a tie with New York after both teams made critical mistakes in the extra period.
Washington (1-3-1) got the ball with 2 minutes left in OT when Daron Payne stripped the ball from Cam Skattebo with the Giants in range for a game-ending field goal. Daniels quickly moved the Commanders to the Giants 24, but with 12 seconds left and Washington with no timeouts, he held onto the ball and went down for no gain. Washington lined up in a bid to spike the ball but the clock ticked down to zero and coach Dan Quinn ripped off his headset in disgust.
The Commanders had a two-touchdown lead in the fourth quarter before Jameis Winston led a furious comeback for the NFC East-leading Giants (3-1-1). He connected with Isaiah Likely for a 17-yard touchdown midway through the fourth quarter — Likely’s second TD catch of the game — and then found Malik Nabers for the tying score, also from 17 yards, with 1:43 left.
Winston finished with 326 yards passing and three TDs. Daniels threw for 199 yards and rushed for 103 yards and two TDs while wearing a brace on his left elbow in his first game back since he dislocated the elbow for the second time.
49ERS 32, SEAHAWKS 29
SEATTLE (AP) — Brock Purdy engineered two scoring drives in the fourth quarter and San Francisco rallied to beat Seattle on a 43-yard field goal by Eddy Pineiro with 1:56 to play.
The win for the 49ers (5-0) offered a small bit of payback for their two late-season losses to Seattle (3-2) last season, including a 41-6 defeat in the divisional round of the playoffs with a short-handed roster.
The game featured an NFL season-high seven combined turnovers, an ejection of 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw and no touchdown drives of more than 25 yards before San Francisco took over trailing 26-21 late in the third quarter.
Purdy responded with an impressive drive against the vaunted Seahawks’ defense, including a 28-yard pass to Mike Evans after an intentional grounding penalty left the Niners in a precarious second-and-21 situation.
That helped set up Purdy’s 7-yard touchdown pass to newcomer Brandin Cooks as San Francisco took a 29-26 lead following a 2-point conversion to Evans.
Sam Darnold responded by leading Seattle on a game-tying field goal drive before Purdy and the 49ers moved the ball 43 yards for Pineiro’s go-ahead kick.
The Seahawks had one last chance, but Jaxon Smith-Njigba dropped a third-down pass from the 50 at the San Francisco 25, and Cooper Kupp was stopped 1 yard short of the first down by Malik Mustapaha on fourth down.
LIONS 45, CARDINALS 21
GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Jared Goff threw three touchdown passes, Jahmyr Gibbs added 151 yards rushing and two more scores and Detroit shook off a slow start by scoring 31 straight points to roll past Arizona.
Gibbs barreled into the end zone on a 1-yard run in the second quarter and added a 3-yard TD run in the fourth, bouncing off the offensive line before reversing field and finding room to run. The three-time Pro Bowl selection has scored an NFL-record 58 touchdowns before his 25th birthday, passing Lions great Barry Sanders, who had 57.
Jameson Williams had his first multi-TD receiving game, catching touchdowns for 8 and 39 yards for Detroit (3-2).
Arizona (1-4) has lost nine straight home games, a streak that’s lasted more than a year.
It was a disappointing, weird afternoon for the Cardinals, who finalized a trade to send receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. to the Houston Texans in the middle of the first quarter. Harrison was one of the team’s five inactives against the Lions and wasn’t seen at the stadium.
BRONCOS 23, CHARGERS 17
INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Wil Lutz kicked a go-ahead 19-yard field goal with 5:07 remaining, lifting Denver over the winless and mistake-prone Los Angeles.
Lutz’s 36-yarder with 1:08 left extended the lead and finished a run of 13 unanswered points in the fourth quarter for the Broncos (3-2).
Denver earned its first division win and first victory at SoFi Stadium since 2023 with coach Sean Payton calling the plays. He took those duties away from offensive coordinator Davis Webb earlier in the week. The Broncos won without injured cornerbacks Pat Surtain II (ankle) and Riley Moss (ribs).
The Chargers also started 0-5 in 2023, the year before coach Jim Harbaugh took over. They came in with a decimated offensive line that featured four rookies trying to protect quarterback Justin Herbert, who was 14 of 24 for 121 yards passing with a touchdown and an interception while getting sacked five times.
Courtland Sutton caught a 5-yard touchdown pass from Bo Nix, tying the score at 17 midway through the fourth. The Broncos got the ball back after Herbert came up short on fourth-and-1, and the Chargers sputtered the rest of the way.
