WEEK 1 RECAPS

CHIEFS 33, CHARGERS 27, OT

Alex Smith dived for a touchdown on the first possession of overtime, completing host Kansas City’s frantic rally from a 17-point fourth-quarter deficit. Smith threw for 363 yards and two touchdowns, the second to Jeremy Maclin with more than nine minutes left in the fourth quarter that trimmed the Chiefs’ deficit to 27-17. Cairo Santos kicked a 33-yard field goal a few minutes later, and after forcing a three-and-out, Spencer Ware finished off a four-play drive with a touchdown plunge to tie it at 27. Kansas City needed 10 plays to go 75 yards in overtime.

PATRIOTS 23, CARDINALS 21

Visiting New England survived a last-minute field-goal attempt to beat the Arizona in Jimmy Garoppolo’s debut. The Patriots took a two-point lead on Stephen Gostkowski’s 32-yard field goal with more than six minutes, but Arizona marched into field-goal range. A low snap threw kicker Matt Catanzaro off and he pulled his 47-yard field goal left.

RAIDERS 35, SAINTS 34

Visiting Oakland gambled with a 2-point conversion Derek Carr converted with a pass to Michael Crabtree for the winning points with 47 seconds left. Carr hit Seth Roberts for a 10-yard touchdown, setting up the gutsy call by second-year Raiders coach Jack Del Rio. Oakland had to overcome a 14-point second-half deficit and a 424-yard, four-touchdown performance by Drew Brees. It also had to sweat out rookie kicker Wil Lutz’s last-second field goal attempt from 61 yards, which narrowly missed wide left.

BENGALS 23, JETS 22

Mike Nugent kicked a 47-yard field goal with 54 seconds left, lifting visiting Cincinnati by New York. Andy Dalton threw for 366 yards and a touchdown to A.J. Green, who caught 12 passes for 180 yards to help the Bengals beat the Jets for the first time in 10 meetings in New Jersey.

EAGLES 29, BROWNS 10

Carson Wentz had 278 yards passing and two touchdowns in a stellar NFL debut as host Philadelphia beat Robert Griffin III and Cleveland. Promoted from No. 3 quarterback to starter just eight days ago, the No. 2 overall pick from North Dakota State looked like a franchise player. Wentz finished 22-of-37 with a 101.0 passer rating.

PACKERS 27, JAGUARS 23

Aaron Rodgers threw two touchdown passes and ran for another score, leading visiting Green Bay by Jacksonville. Rodgers extended plays with his feet, escaped sacks and had precision accuracy all around the field. He completed 20 of 34 passes for 199 yards, with TD passes to Jordy Nelson and Davante Adams.

RAVENS 13, BILLS 7

Host Baltimore used a touchdown pass by Joe Flacco, two field goals and a throwback defensive performance to beat Buffalo. Against former defensive coordinator Rex Ryan, now Buffalo’s head coach, the Ravens limited the Bills to 160 yards and sacked Tyrod Taylor twice.

TEXANS 23, BEARS 14

Brock Osweiler threw for 231 yards and two touchdowns in his debut to lead host Houston past Chicago. He completed passes to eight different receivers, led by rookie first-round pick Will Fuller, who became the first player in franchise history to have 100 yards receiving in a debut with 107 and a touchdown.

SEAHAWKS 12, DOLPHINS 10

Hobbled by an ankle injury, Russell Wilson pulled off another fourth-quarter comeback, throwing a 2-yard touchdown pass to Doug Baldwin with 31 seconds left to give host Seattle a win against Miami.

LIONS 39, COLTS 35

Matthew Stafford took advantage of one final chance, and Matt Prater redeemed himself with a 43-yard field goal with eight seconds left to give Detroit a win at host Indianapolis. Prater missed an extra point wide right with 4:04 left in the season opener, a miscue that almost cost the Lions. Detroit won for only the second time in Indy, and it came just 37 seconds after it looked like Andrew Luck had rallied the Colts for a victory.
