Peyton Manning threw a touchdown pass with 13 seconds remaining as the unbeaten Colts rallied from a 17-point deficit to edge the New England Patriots 35-34 Sunday. After the Patriots were stopped short on fourth down deep in their own territory, Manning took advantage by throwing a 1-yard touchdown pass to Reggie Wayne. New England coach Bill Belichick decided to go for it on fourth-and-2 from the Patriots 28 with 2:08 to go, which backfired. Tom Brady threw to Kevin Faulk, who made a juggling catch but was pushed backward and came up just short. Manning needed just four plays before hooking up with Wayne for the winning score. Bengals 18, Steelers 12: At Pittsburgh, the Cincinnati Bengals beat the Steelers at their own game in their own stadium, relying on a defense that smothered Ben Roethlisberger by holding the Super Bowl champions to four field goals in an 18-12 victory Sunday that put them in control of the AFC North. Shayne Graham kicked four field goals in the second half even as the Bengals failed to convert opportunity after opportunity to take control. Bernard Scott's 96-yard kickoff return in the first quarter proved pivotal as Cincinnati, despite playing the second half without ace running back Cedric Benson and failing to convert on the extra point after Scott's score, followed up a 23-20 win over the Steelers on Sept. 27. By sweeping the season series for the first time since 1998, the Bengals lead the division and, for the first time in their history, have a 5-0 division record. Dolphins 25, Bucs 23: At Miami, Chad Henne directed a 77-yard scoring drive in the final 1:10, and Dan Carpenter kicked a 25-yard field goal with 10 seconds left for the victory. Henne spoiled the Bucs' comeback led by Josh Freeman, who rallied his team in the fourth quarter for the second time in two NFL starts. The rookie shook off an awful first half and led his team to a pair of late touchdowns. Saints 28, Rams 23: At St. Louis, Reggie Bush helped the unbeaten New Orleans Saints overcome another bundle of mistakes and get off to the best start in team history. Panthers 28, Falcons 19: At Charlotte, North Carolina, Jake Delhomme went turnover-free for the third straight game, finding Steve Smith for two touchdowns. Vikings 27, Lions 10: At Minneapolis, Brett Favre passed for a season-high 344 yards and Detroit lost for the 31st time in 33 games. The Lions (1-8) joined the Houston Oilers, from Nov. 21, 1982 through Nov. 4, 1984, as the only NFL teams to lose 31 games in a 33-game stretch, according to STATS. Redskins 27, Broncos 17: At Landover, the Washington Redskins broke the 17-point barrier for the first time this season and ended a four-game losing streak. Titans 41, Bills 17: At Nashville, Chris Johnson ran for 132 yards and two touchdowns for the Titans. Jaguars 24, Jets 22: At East Rutherford, Josh Scobee kicked a 21-yard field goal as time expired after the Jaguars passed up a touchdown in order to drain the clock. Other results: Chargers 31, Eagles 23; Chiefs 16, Raiders 10; Cardinals 31, Seahawks 20; Packers 17, Cowboys 7.
