Browns put an end to 49ers' winning streak

-

Rookie Jake Moody missed a 41-yard field goal with six seconds left, leaving visiting San Francisco stunned 19-17 by the Cleveland Browns, who ended the 49ers’ regular-season winning streak at 15 on Sunday and handed quarterbac­k Brock Purdy his first loss as an NFL starter.

Dustin Hopkins kicked four field goals for the Browns (3-2) — the last with 1:40 left, capping a drive helped by a disputed unnecessar­y roughness call against San Francisco (5-1). Cleveland pulled off the upset without quarterbac­k Deshaun Watson, who missed his second straight game with a bruised right shoulder.

The 49ers came in looking nearly unbeatable after destroying Dallas 42-10 at home last week. But Cleveland’s defense was up to the task, and the 49ers were short-handed without playmakers Christian Mccaffrey and Deebo Samuel, who both went out with injuries.

P.J. Walker came off Cleveland’s practice squad and outplayed Purdy, who threw his first intercepti­on this season and finished with just 125 yards.

JETS 20, EAGLES 14 >> Breece Hall ran for an 8-yard TD with 1:46 remaining, one play after Tony Adams intercepte­d Jalen Hurts, and host New York held on to shock previously undefeated Philadelph­ia.

The Jets (3-3) appeared on their way to falling to 0-13 in their history against the Eagles, but Hurts’ third intercepti­on of the game — and the fourth turnover by Philadelph­ia (5-1) — was returned by Adams 45 yards to put New York into immediate scoring position.

Hall’s run shook Metlife Stadium as Jets fans went wild, then Zach Wilson connected with Randall Cobb on a 2-point conversion.

LIONS 20, BUCCANEERS 6 >> Jared Goff threw for 353 yards and two touchdowns and NFC North-leading Detroit beat host Tampa Bay.

The Lions’ defense did its part by intercepti­ng Baker Mayfield once and limiting the Bucs (3-2) to 251 yards of total offense.
