Titans outlast Colts in OT

-

Randy Bullock made a 44-yard field goal with 4:03 left in overtime Sunday to cap a wild game, giving the Titans a 34-31 victory over the Colts in Indianapol­is and control of the AFC South.

The teams combined for two touchdowns in the final 86 seconds of regulation to set up overtime and Colts quarterbac­k Carson Wentz threw two intercepti­ons in the final 7 ½ minutes after throwing only one all season.

The Titans (6-2) have won four straight overall to take a three-game lead in the division and also has the third season sweep of the Colts in franchise history.

The Colts (3-5) have lost three straight in the series.

Jets 34, Bengals 31: In his first start, Mike White threw for 405 yards and three TDs to lead the Jets to the comeback win. White, playing for injured Zach Wilson, was 37 of 45 — setting an NFL record for most completion­s in a first start.

Bills 26, Dolphins 11: Josh Allen threw TD passes on consecutiv­e second-half drives as the Bills beat the Dolphins for a series-record seventh straight time.

Broncos 17, Washington 10: The Broncos blocked two FGs on their way to ending

a four-game slide. Melvin Gordon III caught a TD pass and ran for the go-ahead score with 4:31 remaining.

Seahawks 31, Jaguars 7: Geno Smith ran for one score and threw a pair of TD passes to DK Metcalf to help the Seahawks win for the first time in four games.

Patriots 27, Chargers 24: Adrian Phillips intercepte­d two passes, returning one

for the go-ahead TD against his former team, Nick Folk kicked four FGs, and the Pats rallied for the road win.

Saints 36, Buccaneers 27:

P.J. Williams intercepte­d Tom Brady and returned it 40 yards for a TD with 1:24 left to lift the Saints. Brady had four TD passes but also three turnovers. Saints QB Jameis Winston injured his left knee in the second quarter and didn’t return.
