CLEVELAND — Ryan Succop kicked a 47-yard field goal with 1:55 left in overtime Sunday to give the Tennessee Titans a 12-9 victory over the Cleveland Browns.
A 54-yard field goal by Browns rookie kicker Zane Gonzalez with 47 seconds left in regulation tied the score 9-9 to force overtime.
The 0-7 Browns shut down the Titans’ sixth-ranked running attack and the Tennessee defense made the Browns quarterbacks pay for passing mistakes.
Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota finished 21 of 34 for 203 yards. DeMarco Murray had 18 carries for just 59 yards.
Browns quarterback Cody Kessler went 10 of 19 for 121 yards and an interception before being benched for rookie DeShone Kizer, who went 12 of 20 for 114 yards and two interceptions.
Vikings 24, Ravens 16
MINNEAPOLIS — Kai Forbath kicked six field goals for Minnesota in a win over Baltimore.
Justin Tucker kicked three field goals, but it wasn’t enough as the Ravens lost their fourth in five games.
Vikings running back Latavius Murray was the rare offensive standout, picking up 113 yards on the ground and scoring Minnesota’s lone touchdown. Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco finished 27 of 39 passing for 186 yards, and hit Chris Moore for a 13-yard touchdown on the final play of the game. Vikings quarterback Case Keenum was 20 of 31 for 188 yards and an interception.
Bears 17, Panthers 3
CHICAGO — Rookie safety Eddie Jackson became the first player in NFL history to score two defensive touchdowns of at least 75 yards in the same game, and Chicago made them stand up in a win over Carolina.
Jackson scored on a 75-yard fumble return and a 76-yard interception return during the first half. Bears quarterback Mitchell Trubisky played it safe on the other side of the ball as he completed four of seven passes for 107 yards.
Panthers quarterback Cam Newton (21 of 34, 211 yards) was intercepted twice in the loss. Turnovers crippled Carolina, which fell short despite posting a 20-5 advantage in first downs and a 293-153 edge in total yards.
Saints 26, Packers 17
GREEN BAY, Wis. — Drew Brees continued his mastery of Green Bay, leading New Orleans to victory.
Brees completed a barrage of short passes that added up to 331 yards on 27-of-38 accuracy with two interceptions. In seven career games against the Packers, he has topped 300 passing yards all seven times.
Making his first start for injured Aaron Rodgers, Packers quarterback Brett Hundley was just 12 of 25 for 87 yards. Hundley didn’t make any big mistakes — his lone interception came with the Packers down nine in the final minutes — but he also didn’t make any big plays in the passing game.
Jaguars 27, Colts 0
INDIANAPOLIS — Blake Bortles completed 18 of 26 passes for 330 yards and a touchdown, and Jacksonville dominated Indianapolis.
The Colts were shut out for the first time since a 41-0 playoff loss in 2002 at the New York Jets.
Bortles had a terrific first half, completing 14 of 20 passes for 282 yards and one touchdown. His first-half success included completions of 45, 50, 52, 24 and 28 yards. Jacksonville’s 39 first-half plays from scrimmage produced 342 yards. Colts quarterback Jacoby Brissett was sacked three times in the first half and limited him to 5-of-10 passing for 37 yards. Brissett finished 22 of 37 for 200 yards.
Dolphins 31, Jets 28
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Backup quarterback Matt Moore, facing a two-touchdown deficit, rallied Miami over New York.
Dolphins defensive back Bobby McCain made the biggest defensive play of the game, intercepting a Josh McCown pass at the New York 27 with 47 seconds left in the fourth quarter. That set up Dolphins kicker Cody Parkey, who broke a 28-28 tie with a 37-yard field goal with 26 seconds left in the game.
Moore completed 13 of 21 passes for 198 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in relief of Jay Cutler. McCown’s interception spoiled a strong overall performance in which he passed for three touchdowns and ran for one. He finished 17 of 27 for 209 yards.
Bills 30, Buccaneers 27
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — LeSean McCoy rushed for 91 yards and two touchdowns and Tyrod Taylor passed for 268 yards and a touchdown as Buffalo came from behind to defeat Tampa Bay.
Stephen Hauschka made three field goals, including the game-winner from 30 yards with 14 seconds remaining. Earlier in the game, Hauschka tied an NFL record by making his 12th consecutive field goal of at least 50 yards.
Jameis Winston started at quarterback for the Buccaneers after being listed as questionable with a shoulder injury. Winston was 32 of 44 passing for 384 yards and three touchdowns. But he fumbled twice, losing one, and threw an interception. Rookie tight end O.J. Howard caught six passes for 98 yards and two touchdowns. Mike Evans had seven receptions for 88 yards and a touchdown.
Rams 33, Cardinals 0
Jared Goff threw for 235 yards and a touchdown, Todd Gurley II had his fourth game of 100 or more rushing yards and the defense provided two interceptions that led to points as Los Angeles crushed Arizona at Twickenham Stadium in London.
Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer exited the game in the second quarter with a broken left arm and will be out at least eight weeks and possibly the rest of the season.
Greg Zuerlein added four field goals for the Rams. Gurley rushed for 106 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries. It was Gurley’s fourth 100 yards-plus game this season. He had no games of 100 or more yards last season.
