KANSAS CgTg , g O. » Deshaun Watson threw for 280 yards and a touchdown while running for two more, outdueling Chiefs counterpart Patrick Mahomes in a matchup of former firstround picks and leading the Houston TeVans to a

31-24 victory over Kansas City on Sunday.

Carlos Hyde added 116 yards rushing and a touchdown against the team that traded him to Houston (42) before the start of the season. DeAndre Hopkins hauled in nine passes for

55 yards.

None was bigger than his last, when the TeVans star made a sliding grab on fourth-and-3 from the Kansas City 27 with just under 2 minutes to go. That allowed Houston to run out the clock and deal the Chiefs (4-2) their second consecutive loss — both at Arrowhead Stadium. SEAHAg KS g g , BROg NS g g » Chris Carson scored on a 1-yard touchdown run with 3:30 left, Russell Wilson threw two TD passes and ran for one and Seattle rallied past mistakeprone Cleveland, improving to 3-0 on the road for the first time in 39 years.

The Seahawks (5-1) gave up touchdowns on Cleveland’s first three possessions before storming back.

Wilson connected with Jaron Brown for two scores, and Seattle’s cool quarterback scampered 16 yards for a TD. The Seahawks last won their first three road games in 1980, when they went 4-12.

SAgNTS gg , gAGg ARS g » Teddy Bridgewater found Jared Cook for a 4-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter, and New Orleans held on to beat Jacksonville and improve to 4-0 without injured starter Drew Brees.

Coming off a 300-yard, four-touchdown performance against Tampa Bay, Bridgewater was less effective against the Jaguars

(2-4). But he did enough for New Orleans’ defense.

Gardner Minshew was sacked twice, hurried often and threw his first interception as a starter. The rookie sensation completed

14 of 29 passes for 163 yards and was held without a touchdown for the first time this season.

RAg ENS g g , BENGALS gg » Lamar Jackson ran for a career-high 152 yards and a touchdown, threw for 236 yards and guided Baltimore past hapless Cincinnati.

Jackson carried 19 times, including three kneeldowns, and finished tantalizingly short of Michael Vick’s single-game record of 173 yards rushing by a quarterback.

Jackson now has three career 100-yard rushing games, tied with Billy Kilmer for most by a quarterback in his first two seasons since 1950. PANTHERS g g, Bg CCANEERS gg» Christian McCaffrey scored two touchdowns and Carolina turned five interceptions by Jameis Winston into 17 points as the Panthers beat Tampa Bay.

After starting the season with two straight losses with hobbled Cam Newton at quarterback, the Panthers (4-2) have been on a roll with Kyle Allen at quarterback thanks to McCaffrey’s big plays and an opportunistic defense that had a franchise record-tying seven takeaways on the day. REg SKgNS gg, g OLPHgNS gg » Rookie Terry McLaurin caught two touchdown passes and Washington stopped Miami’s two-point conversion attempt with 6 seconds left in a matchup between winless teams.

Adrian Peterson more than doubled his season rushing total with 118 yards for Bill Callahan in his first game as interim coach. Washington intercepted Josh Rosen twice and sacked him five times before he was benched at the start of the fourth quarter with the Dolphins trailing 17-3.

Rosen’s replacement, Ryan Fitzpatrick, sparked a rally and led two touchdown drives, including a 75-yard march that began with 2:02 left. But after Fitzpatrick hit DeVante Parker for an 11-yard score to cut the deficit to one point, rookie coach Brian Flores decided to go for two.

BRONCOS gg , TgTANS g » Denver’s swarming defense sent Marcus Mariota to the bench and Tennessee to its fourth loss in five games.

The Broncos (2-4) had seven sacks in a game for the first time since their

2015 Super Bowl season and they picked off three passes.

CARg gNALS g g , FALCONS g g » Kyler Murray threw for

340 yards and three touchdowns and Arizona built a big lead over Atlanta, lost it, and then rallied to win.

Atlanta looked like it would tie the game with

1:53 left after Matt Ryan hit Devonta Freeman on a 12-yard touchdown pass, but 44-year-old Matt Bryant missed left on the eVtra point, and the Cardinals ran out the clock from there.
