Tampa Bay 19 New England 17 — FINAL
After spending two decades with the Patriots, Tom Brady made his return to Foxborough on Sunday Night Football in a Gillette Stadium filled with fans of both teams wearing Brady jerseys. And like always, Brady came away victorious, thanks to a late field goal by Ryan Succop. The Pats tried to win the game with a field goal of their own, but the ball doinked off the upright to end the game. Mac Jones looked good in the matchup and finished the day 31 of 40 for 275 yards and two touchdowns. The Patriots dropped their third straight home game, moving them to 1-3 on the season for the first time since 2001.

New York led 24-17 late in the fourth and tried to hold the Titans with 2:09 left to play, but Tennessee found a wide open Cameron Batson in the end zone for the game-tying TD. In overtime, the Jets took the lead with a 22-yard field goal. The Titans couldn’t score a touchdown on their possession and on their 49-yard field goal attempt, the ball sailed wide right to end the game. The Jets are 1-3 on the season, the Titans are 2-2.
Indianapolis 27 Miami 17 — FINAL

This was the third straight game that the Dolphins gave up more than 20 consecutive points. Miami and Indianapolis move to 1-3 on the year.
Kansas City 42 Philadelphia 30 — FINAL
After back-to-back losses, the Chiefs got back in the win column on Sunday with a 12-point victory over the Eagles in which Patrick Mahomes threw five touchdowns for 278 yards and one interception, with the turnover being the one possession that the Chiefs did not score a TD.

KC moves to 2-2 and will host the Bills for Sunday Night Football next week.
Cleveland 14 Minnesota 7 — FINAL
The Vikings scored first, but the Browns inked out the win with 14 unanswered points in the final three quarters to move to 3-1 on the season.

Baltimore has now won its last three games and moves to 3-1 on the year.
Green Bay 27 Pittsburgh 17 — FINAL
After trailing 7-0 to start the game, the Packers scored 27 of the next 30 points to squash the Steelers, the only team in the league that Aaron Rodgers hadn’t faced at Lambeau Field during the course of his career.
