NFL roundup: Chiefs and Lions earn OT wins as Patriots and Bears stay hot | NFL

Indianapolis Colts 20-23 Kansas City Chiefs (OT)

Patrick Mahomes threw for a season-high 352 yards, Kareem Hunt rushed for 104 yards and a touchdown, and Harrison Butker's fifth field goal of the game gave the Kansas City Chiefs an overtime victory over the Indianapolis Colts. Rushie Rice had eight catches for 141 yards, including two game-tying ones for the Chiefs' tying touchdown in regulation and another in overtime after Kansas City (6-5) forced the powerful Colts (8-3) to their fourth straight three-and-out. Butker capped the game with a 27-yard field goal with just under two minutes left in overtime, keeping the Chiefs' playoff hopes alive.

New York Giants 27–34 Detroit Lions (OT)

The Detroit Lions (7-4) avoided back-to-back losses for the first time in more than three years. Jameer Gibbs ran for a 69-yard touchdown on the first drive of overtime after Jake Bates tied a career-high with a 59-yard field goal in the final minute of regulation to lift the Lions to victory. New York (2-10) had a chance to extend the game but turned the ball over at the Detroit 31 when Aidan Hutchinson sacked Jameis Winston. The Lions came into the game out of the playoffs and trailed by double digits several times. Gibbs had a career-high 264 yards from scrimmage and three scores.

Pittsburgh Steelers 28–31 Chicago Bears

Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears didn't have to deal with old nemesis Aaron Rodgers, who missed the game with a broken wrist, to come away with the win. The longtime Packers QB has a 25-5 career record against the Bears. Williams threw three touchdowns and the Bears beat the Steelers. Chicago won for the eighth time in nine games to improve to 8–3. After rallying in the final two minutes of the previous three weeks, the Bears held the lead this time. The Steelers fell to 6–5 and tied for first place with Baltimore in the AFC North.

New England Patriots 26–20 Cincinnati Bengals

Drake May passed for 294 yards and the AFC-leading New England Patriots (10-2) extended their winning streak to nine with an 8-3 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Hunter Henry posted a career-high 115 receiving yards. The Patriots rallied from a 10–0 deficit in the second quarter. Andy Borregales kicked a 52-yard field goal to give New England the lead with 1:51 left. Cincinnati's Joe Flacco drives to the Patriots 26 but fails on a fourth-down pass. The Bengals have lost eight of nine since Joe Burrow's injury. Burrow is expected to return on Thanksgiving Day against Baltimore.

Seattle Seahawks 30–24 Tennessee Titans

Sam Darnold threw for 244 yards and two touchdowns and the Seattle Seahawks (8-3) beat the Tennessee Titans (1-10) for their fifth win in six games. Darnold bounced back with a clean game after being ejected four times last week. The Seahawks also held onto the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs. Rookie Cam Ward tried to rally the Titans. He found Chimera Dike for a one-yard pass with 43 seconds left, giving the NFL's highest-scoring team a season-high in points and one last chance. The Titans committed an onside kick too early and Seattle completed the win.

New York Jets 10-23 Baltimore Ravens

Derrick Henry scored two touchdowns in the third quarter and the Baltimore Ravens recovered from a sleepy first half to beat the New York Jets for their fifth straight win. Baltimore went from 1-5 to 6-5, but it wasn't particularly convincing. Lamar Jackson went 13-of-23 for 153 yards and didn't look as mobile as usual after dealing with knee and ankle issues recently. Henry was held to 64 yards on 21 carries. Tyrod Taylor started in place of benched Justin Fields and threw for 222 yards and a touchdown and threw a late interception for the Jets (2-9).

Minnesota Vikings 6-23 Green Bay Packers

Emanuel Wilson rushed for a career-high 107 yards and two touchdowns in his first career start as the Green Bay Packers (7-3-1) defeated the Minnesota Vikings (4-7). Green Bay kickers Micah Parsons and Devontae Wyatt each had two sacks. The Vikings gained four net yards and three turnovers in the second half. Wilson scored two one-yard touchdowns while filling in for the injured Josh Jacobs. His 28 carries and 107 yards rushing represent the most of any Packers running back this season.
