WEEK 6 RECAPS

STEELERS 28, BENGALS 21

James Conner ran for 111 yards and a pair of touchdowns on the eve of Le’Veon Bell’s possible return, and Antonio Brown turned a short pass into a 31-yard touchdown with 10 seconds left as Pittsburgh pulled off another improbable victory Sunday. After Joe Mixon’s 4-yard touchdown run with 1:18 left got the Bengals thinking this might finally be the time they end their losing streak in this AFC North rivalry, the Steelers stunned them again. Brown caught a short pass from Ben Roethlisberger and outran the secondary for the winning score, extending Cincinnati’s misery to eight losses in a row against Pittsburgh.

RAMS 23, BRONCOS 20

Todd Gurley rushed for 208 yards — his NFL career high — and two TDs on 28 carries as the Rams ran through Denver’s defense. The Broncos pulled to 23-20 on Case Keenum’s 1-yard dart to Demaryius Thomas with 1:22 remaining, capping a 77-yard drive that included three defensive penalties. Rams receiver Robert Woods, however, knocked the onside kick by Brandon McManus out of bounds, and the Rams ran out the clock, with Jared Goff (14-of-2 passing 8 for 201 yards) twice taking a knee.

COWBOYS 40, JAGUARS 7

Dak Prescott threw a pair of TD passes to Cole Beasley to spark the previously punchless Dallas passing game, and the QB rushed for 82 yards, his NFL career high. Perhaps pumped up by some pregame mingling with UFC fighter Conor McGregor, the Cowboys rolled to a 24-0 halftime lead. Beasley got his first two scores of the season for the NFL’s 30thranked passing offense that was facing the league’s No. 1 pass defense. Prescott had 151 of his 183 passing yards in the first half because Dallas didn’t need to throw while coasting during a second-half blowout that handed Jacksonville its second straight loss.

DOLPHINS 31, BEARS 28, OT

Jason Sanders kicked a 47-yard field goal on the final play of overtime after Cody Parkey missed a 53-yard try for the Chicago Bears, who blew an 11-point lead in the final 16 minutes of regulation. Miami’s Brock Osweiler threw for 380 yards and three TDs subbing for Ryan Tannehill, who sat out because of an injured throwing shoulder. Albert Wilson turned two short passes into long TDs in the fourth quarter and finished with 155 yards on six receptions. Mitchell Trubisky threw for 316 yards and three second-half TDs, but the Bears were hurt by two turnovers in the red zone. Jordan Howard lost a fumble at the 1, and Trubisky was intercepted in the end zone by T.J. McDonald.

JETS 42, COLTS 34

Jason Myers kicked a franchise-record seven field goals, Sam Darnold threw two touchdown passes, and the Jets held on to win consecutive games for the first time in more than a year. Morris Claiborne returned the first of three interceptions thrown by Andrew Luck for a score. Darnold wound up 24-of-30 passing for 280 yards, with TD throws to Terrelle Pryor and Chris Herndon and an interception. Myers hit field goals from 30, 48, 32, 37, 45, 37 and 45 yards to break the Jets’ record previously held by Jim Turner (1968) — the kicker for the Super Bowl III champions — and Bobby Howfield (1972).

TEXANS 19, BILLS 14

Johnathan Joseph’s 28-yard interception return for a TD with 1:23 remaining lifted the Texans, who are tied with Tennessee and Jacksonville for the AFC South lead. Houston trailed by three when Phillip Gaines was called for pass interference on Will Fuller in the end zone with two minutes remaining, moving the Texans 41 yards to the 1. But they lost 7 yards on three plays, capped by an incomplete pass intended for Ryan Griffin that Matt Milano knocked down to force Houston to kick. A 27-yard field goal by Ka’imi Fairbairn tied it with 1:34 remaining. Two plays later, Joseph stepped in front of a pass from backup Nathan Peterman intended for Kelvin Benjamin and dashed untouched into the end zone to put the Texans on top and help them avoid their third straight overtime game. Kareem Jackson intercepted Peterman with 35 seconds left to seal it.

VIKINGS 27, CARDINALS 17

Latavius Murray helped the Minnesota Vikings revive their running attack with 155 yards and a TD on 24 carries, wearing down the Cardinals. Even QB Kirk Cousins joined the fun for the Vikings with an option-style run across the goal line in the third quarter — before throwing to Adam Thielen for another TD on the following possession. Thielen had 11 receptions for 123 yards, his sixth straight 100-yard game to become the first player in the NFL since 1961 to start a season with a streak that long. Thielen’s 58 catches are the most in league history through six games.

SEAHAWKS 27, RAIDERS 3

Russell Wilson threw for three TDs, including one off a botched snap in the second quarter, Chris Carson rushed for 59 yards and rookie Rashaad Penny gained an additional 43 for the Seahawks, who played to a vociferously supportive crowd — a London-record 84,922 were in attendance. Oakland quarterback Derek Carr left with an apparent left arm injury with 8:52 remaining in the fourth quarter after the last of his six sacks and did not have the chance to return before the Seahawks ran out the clock. Carr went 23-for-31 for 142 yards. He was hit by Jarran Reed on third down and immediately grabbed his upper left arm as he sat up before being helped to the sideline for evaluation. Wilson completed 17 of 23 passes for 222 yards with an interception.

REDSKINS 23, PANTHERS 17

Josh Norman bounced back from his prime-time benching by intercepting former teammate Cam Newton and forcing a fumble. Norman also popped the ball out of Panthers rookie receiver D.J. Moore’s hands in a showcase performance against the team that abruptly cut ties with him after his All-Pro 2015 season. Newton threw for 275 yards and a pair of TDs on 27-of-40 passing and rushed for 43 yards in a turnover-marred loss. In his second game with the Panthers, safety Eric Reid continued his tradition of kneeling during the national anthem. Reid took a knee just at the corner of the American flag on the field by the Carolina sideline, the only Panthers player to do so.

CHARGERS 38, BROWNS 14

Philip Rivers threw two TD passes to Tyrell Williams — the veteran quarterback also threw a block — and Melvin Gordon had three TD runs as the Chargers banged around rookie QB Baker Mayfield and the Browns. The 36-year-old Rivers continued one of the best starts to a season in his 15-year career, leading the Chargers to their third straight win. Rivers finished 11-of-20 for 207 yards and had only one mistake, an interception midway through the fourth quarter.
