Chandon Sullivan returned a Matthew Stafford interception seven yards for a third-quarter score. Green Bay rolled up 488 total yards and played turnover-free football for a second straight week.

The Baltimore defense was all over the field, sacking Deshaun Watson four times and limiting Houston to only 51 yards rushing. Linebacker L.J. Fort returned a fumble 22 yards for a touchdown, one of two takeaways by Don Martindale’s unit.

Andy Reid’s team had knocked off the Chargers 11 times in the clubs’ last 12 meetings dating back to 2014, including six straight on the road, entering Sunday’s clash. But the reigning Super Bowl champions were pressed big time in Los Angeles as the Chiefs were down, 17-6, in the third quarter. Patrick Mahomes threw for 302 yards and two scores and both his arm and legs (54 yards rushing) were the key to a comeback victory in overtime.
