Jaguars go 2-0 in London with upset of listless Bills

-

Travis Etienne rushed for 136 yards and two fourth-quarter touchdowns, and the Jacksonvil­le Jaguars beat the jetlagged Buffalo Bills 25-20 on Sunday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The Jaguars (3-2) won back-to-back games in London, ended Buffalo's three-game winning streak and proved they can hang with an AFC powerhouse.

The Bills (3-2) looked tired at times, rushed for only 29 yards, and had a rash of injuries.

Etienne scored on a 35yard run with just under three minutes left after carrying it in from 6 yards earlier.

Josh Allen twice brought the Bills back late in the fourth quarter. He ran it in from 3 yards to complete a 75-yard drive that took just 45 seconds, making it 2520 before the two-minute warning.

STEELERS 17, RAVENS 10 >>

Kenny Pickett hit George Pickens for a 41-yard touchdown with 1:17 remaining, and Pittsburgh rallied past Baltimore.

Pickett and the rest of Pittsburgh's sporadic offense managed little over the game's first 55 minutes, but a late intercepti­on by rookie cornerback Joey Porter Jr. gave the Steelers (3-2) life. Pickett responded by driving Pittsburgh 80 yards in eight plays, the last 41 coming on a rainbow down the sideline to Pickens.

It was the Steelers' first touchdown in nearly nine quarters and it somehow was enough to beat the Ravens (3-2). Baltimore turned the ball over three times, including twice in the final five minutes.

FALCONS 21, TEXANS 19 >>

Desmond Ridder passed and ran for touchdowns, providing an answer to those who had called for him to be benched, Younghoe Koo kicked a go-ahead 37-yard field goal as time expired, and Atlanta beat Houston to snap a twogame skid.

Ridder's 6-yard TD pass to rookie running back Bijan Robinson and 2-point pass to Tyler Allgeier gave the Falcons (3-2) a 15-12 lead early in the fourth quarter.

Houston C.J. Stroud rookie answered quarterbac­k with an 18-yard scoring pass to tight end Dalton Schultz, giving the Texans a 19-18 lead with 1:49 remaining.

SAINTS Kamara 34, PATRIOTS rushed 0 for >> Alvin a touchdown, Derek Carr had two scoring passes and New Orleans routed New England.

Tyrann Mathieu added a 27-yard intercepti­on return for a touchdown to help New Orleans (3-2) chase Patriots quarterbac­k Mac Jones from the game — the second straight week coach Bill Belichick benched Jones in the second half.

Kamara had 22 carries for 80 yards, and his 73rd career TD made him the Saints' career leader. Carr finished 18 of 26 for 183 yards, and Michael Thomas had four catches for 65 yards as New Or-*

leans ended a two-game skid. The Saints outgained the Patriots 304 yards to 156.

DOLPHINS Rookie De'Von 31, GIANTS Achane 16 ran >> for a 76-yard touchdown, Tyreek Hill surpassed 150 yards receiving for the third time this season, and Miami beat New York.

The Dolphins' 524 yards gave them 2,568 this year, the most through the first five games of a season in NFL history.

LIONS 42, PANTHERS 24 >> Jared Goff threw three touchdown passes in the first half and ran for a score in the fourth quarter, and Detroit kept Carolina winless.

The NFC North-leading Lions (4-1) are alone atop the division in October or later for the first time since 2016. COLTS 23, TITANS 16 >> Zack Moss upstaged the return of Jonathan Taylor by running for a career-high 165 yards and two scores, and Gardner Minshew was sharp in relief of the injured Anthony Richardson to lead Indianapol­is past Tennessee.

The Colts (3-2) snapped a seven-game losing streak at home and beat the Titans (2-3) for the first time in six tries.
