Bo Nix and the visiting Denver Broncos wiped out a 14-point fourth-quarter deficit and snapped Philadelphia’s 10-game winning streak with a 21-17 victory on Sunday.
After punting on seven of their first eight drives, the Broncos (3-2) scored touchdowns on back-to-back possessions to seize the lead. J.K. Dobbins made it 17-10 with a 2-yard TD run with 13:11 remaining, and Nix put Denver ahead with an 11-yard TD pass to Evan Engram and a gutsy two-point conversion toss to Troy Franklin with 7:36 left.
The defending Super Bowl champion Eagles (4-1) also had a 12-game home winning streak snapped, dating back to Week 2 of last season. Nix passed for 242 yards and improved his career record to 5-1 against NFC opponents. Courtland Sutton caught eight passes for 99 yards and Dobbins ran for 79 yards.
Philadelphia’s Jalen Hurts passed for a season-high 280 yards and threw touchdowns to Saquon Barkley and Dallas Goedert, but he was also sacked six times.
Titans 22, Cardinals 21
Joey Slye booted a 29-yard field goal on the final play to cap Tennessee’s rally from a 21-6 fourth-quarter deficit in Glendale, Ariz., to claim its first win.
Cam Ward, who completed 21 of 39 passes for 265 yards, directed the Titans (1-4) on a 71-yard drive in the final two minutes to set up Slye’s game-winner. Tony Pollard rushed for a 1-yard score to start the Titans’ comeback, then Tyler Lockett recovered a loose ball for a score with 4:39 left on a wild play that began with Ward throwing an interception to the 5-yard line that the Cardinals fumbled, kicked and poked into the end zone.
Kyler Murray completed 23 of 31 for 220 yards for the Cardinals (2-3), who held a 21-3 lead early in the second quarter on rushing scores by Michael Carter, Murray and Bam Knight. Emari Demercado thought he broke away for a 72-yard touchdown run with 12:40 left that would have made it 27-6, but he deliberately let the ball drop inches before crossing the goal line.
Texans 44, Ravens 10
C.J. Stroud passed for 244 yards and four touchdowns, and Houston rode a dominating defensive performance to a road victory over injury-plagued Baltimore.
Jalen Pitre snagged two interceptions for the Texans (2-3) and Stroud was exceedingly efficient, completing 23 of 27 attempts while benefiting from solid pass protection. Xavier Hutchinson and rookie Jaylin Noel each recorded their first career scoring receptions, with Hutchinson adding a second touchdown catch just before halftime.
Derrick Henry finished with 33 yards on 15 carries for the Ravens (1-4) and scored their lone touchdown on a 1-yard run late in the third quarter. Cooper Rush passed for 179 yards and tossed three interceptions in place of two-time MVP Lamar Jackson, who was out with a hamstring injury.

This included three touchdowns — two by Taylor — in a span of less than 4 1/2 minutes in the third quarter.
Geno Smith hit 25 of 36 passes for 228 yards and two interceptions for the Raiders (1-4), who lost their fourth straight game. Rookie Ashton Jeanty rushed 14 times for 67 yards for Las Vegas, which was blown out despite the Colts’ modest 317-296 edge in total yards.
Panthers 27, Dolphins 24
Bryce Young threw for two touchdowns and Rico Dowdle ran for 206 yards and a touchdown as Carolina rallied past Miami in Charlotte.
Young’s 4-yard pass to rookie tight end Mitchell Evans with 1:59 to play gave the Panthers (2-3) the lead for good as they matched the largest comeback to win a game in franchise history by overcoming a 17-point hole. Dowdle, filling in for injured Chuba Hubbard, came up 4 yards shy of matching the single-game franchise rushing record.
Miami’s Tua Tagovailoa completed 27 of 36 throws for 256 yards with three touchdowns and Jaylen Waddle gained 110 receiving yards on six catches and scored a touchdown, but the Dolphins (1-4) dropped to 0-3 in road games.
