The Ravens blocked his initial attempt, but were flagged for offsides, giving him another chance from five yards closer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">With Lamar Jackson sidelined for a second straight game by an ankle injury, Tyler Huntley helped Baltimore score on its first two possessions before the offense stalled. The turning point came when Browns linebacker Carson Schwesinger forced a Derrick Henry fumble, and Tyson Campbell recovered at Baltimore\u2019s 35. Audric Estime, signed off Minnesota\u2019s practice squad earlier in the week, capped the ensuing possession with a two-yard touchdown run to tie it at 10 with 8:33 remaining.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Deshaun Watson finished 16 of 26 for 164 yards, including a crucial 33-yard completion to Jerry Jeudy on Cleveland\u2019s winning drive. Baltimore failed to pick up a first down on either of its final two possessions, allowing Watson to take over with 1:59 remaining and lead a 10-play, 62-yard drive. Huntley threw for 165 yards and a touchdown, while Henry managed just 58 rushing yards on 17 carries as the Ravens went scoreless on their final nine possessions.<\/p>\n<p>Steelers complete comeback<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Pittsburgh escaped Tampa Bay with a 26-19 overtime victory after entering the fourth quarter trailing 16-3. Aaron Rodgers threw a seven-yard touchdown pass to rookie Germie Bernard with 3:15 remaining in overtime, and Jalen Ramsey ended Tampa Bay\u2019s ensuing possession with a fourth-down sack. With the win, the Steelers picked up their first road victory of the season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Rodgers endured five sacks through three quarters before directing four fourth-quarter scoring drives. His five-yard touchdown pass to Darnell Washington started the rally, while interceptions by Daylen Everette and Jamel Dean helped Pittsburgh turn a 16-13 deficit into a 19-16 lead. Buccaneers quarterback Jalon Daniels recovered from those mistakes to set up Chase McLaughlin\u2019s 53-yard field goal, which forced overtime.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Rodgers finished 33 of 49 for 253 yards, two touchdowns and an interception, with DK Metcalf catching 11 passes for 93 yards. Chris Boswell contributed four field goals as Pittsburgh overcame the absences of injured receivers Michael Pittman Jr. and Roman Wilson. Daniels, starting for the injured Baker Mayfield, threw for 164 yards and a touchdown.<\/p>\n<p>AFC North Standings for Week 7<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Cincinnati Bengals had the week off, but there was plenty of drama elsewhere in the AFC North&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1031629,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2053],"tags":[45790,228,227,256,1561,2296,7,6],"class_list":["post-1031628","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cincinnati-bengals","tag-afc-north-news","tag-bengals","tag-cincinnati","tag-cincinnati-bengals","tag-cincinnati-bengals-news","tag-cincinnatibengals","tag-football","tag-nfl"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/117466925860879060","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1031628","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1031628"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1031628\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1031629"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1031628"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1031628"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1031628"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
