AROUND THE NFL

COMMANDERS 23, PACKERS 21

Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay offense sputtered and Washington handed the Packers their third straight loss. Nursing a sore thumb and out of sync with receivers, Rodgers was 23 of 35 for 194 yards and the Packers went 0 of 6 on third down. Green Bay had just 232 total yards of offense to Washington’s 364 and lost Allen Lazard to a shoulder injury, making him the team’s third wide receiver to go down during the first losing streak under coach Matt LaFleur. Taylor Heinicke, making his first start of the season in place of injured Carson Wentz, threw for two touchdowns — including a perfect 37-yard pass to Terry McLaurin — and was 20 of 33 for 200 yards.

RAVENS 23, BROWNS 20

Gus Edwards ran for two touchdowns in his first game back from a major knee injury, and Baltimore avoided another fourthquar­ter collapse thanks to a couple huge Cleveland penalties. The Ravens led 23-13 after Justin Tucker’s 55-yard field goal with 11:24 remaining, but the Browns responded with a 2-yard touchdown run by Kareem Hunt to make it a three-point game. Then a fumble by Baltimore’s Justice Hill gave Cleveland the ball at its own 16 with 3:12 to play. With the Browns driving, Amari Cooper was called for offensive pass interferen­ce, and a falsestart penalty on a field-goal attempt forced Cade York to try it from 60 yards. His attempt was blocked by Malik Harrison with 1:59 remaining. Cleveland has lost four in a row.

COWBOYS 24, LIONS 6

Ezekiel Elliott ran for two 1-yard touchdowns and Dak Prescott threw for a score in his return from injury while Dallas leaned on its defense to beat Detroit. The Cowboys recovered Jamaal Williams’ fumble inside their 1 with a four-point lead early in the fourth quarter. Jared Goff was responsibl­e for four other Detroit turnovers — he threw two intercepti­ons and lost two fumbles.

SEAHAWKS 37, CHARGERS 23

Rookie Kenneth Walker III rushed for 168 yards and two touchdowns, Marquise Goodwin caught a pair of scores, and Seattle jumped out to a 17-point first-quarter lead and beat Los Angeles. Geno Smith completed 20 of 27 passes for 210 yards and two touchdowns, his fifth multi-TD game of the season.

TITANS 19, COLTS 10

Andrew Adams returned an intercepti­on 76 yards for the first picksix of his career, and Tennessee never trailed while completing its second straight sweep of AFC South rival Indianapol­is.

BENGALS 35, FALCONS 17

Joe Burrow passed for 345 yards and three touchdowns in the first half as Cincinnati scored on its first four possession­s to roll past Atlanta. The Cincinnati quarterbac­k played his best game of the season, finishing 34 of 42 for 481 yards and three touchdowns and running for a 1-yard score as the defending AFC champions moved above .500 for the first time this season.

RAIDERS 38, TEXANS 20

Josh Jacobs rushed for 143 yards and three second-half touchdowns as Las Vegas ran away from Houston. In a battle of one-win teams coming off byes, the Raiders dominated the Texans after halftime, outscoring them 28-10 behind 227 yards of offense, including 98 from Jacobs on the ground.

DOLPHINS 16, STEELERS 10

Tua Tagovailoa got the Dolphins off to a fast start in his return from a concussion, and Miami held on throughout a scoreless second half to beat the Steelers. The Dolphins snapped a three-game skid that began on Sept. 29, when Tagovailoa was concussed in a loss at Cincinnati. He also took a hard hit four days earlier in a win over Buffalo that led to changes in the NFL’s concussion protocol.
