Final Score: Buffalo 35, Kansas City 17

Buffalo (1-1) was lit up for 48 points and 384 total yards by the Jets last week in a season-opening loss, but the defense was much better this Sunday as the unit totaled five sacks and two fumble recoveries before allowing a pair of fourth quarter touchdowns in the win.

Final Score: Carolina 35, New Orleans 27

Charlotte, NC (Sports Network) - The Carolina Panthers trio of Cam Newton, DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart ran through a plethora of gaping holes and handed the New Orleans Saints their first 0-2 start since 2007. Newton, Williams and Stewart helped the Panthers total 219 yards rushing in Carolina's 35-27 win over the Saints.

Final Score: Indianapolis 23, Minnesota 20

Indianapolis, IN (Sports Network) - Adam Vinatieri booted a game-winning, 53- yard field goal with eight seconds left as the Indianapolis Colts edged the Minnesota Vikings, 23-20, on Sunday at Lucas Oil Stadium.

On the first play of the drive, Andrew Luck connected with Donnie Avery for 20 yards up to the 40

Final Score: Houston 27, Jacksonville 7

Jacksonville, FL (Sports Network) - Arian Foster rushed for 110 yards and a touchdown, while Ben Tate added a pair of scores on the ground, as the Houston Texans stymied the Jacksonville Jaguars offense in a 27-7 triumph on Sunday at EverBank Field.

Ryan Tannehill notched his first win as an NFL quarterback, throwing for 200 yards with his first touchdown. The first- round pick also ran for a score as he and the Dolphins (1-1) bounced back from a dismal opener last week in Houston and gave Joe Philbin his first win as an NFL head coach.

Final Score: Arizona 20, New England 18

Foxboro, MA (Sports Network) - Running back Ryan Williams and the rest of the Arizona Cardinals can breathe a sigh of relief. The Cardinals held on for a 20-18 win Sunday at Gillette Stadium after New England kicker Stephen Gostkowski missed a 42-yard field goal with one second remaining.

East Rutherford, NJ (Sports Network) - Andre Brown's 2-yard rushing touchdown with 31 seconds left capped a huge fourth quarter, as the New York Giants rallied past the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 41-34.

Final Score: Philadelphia 24, Baltimore 23

Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - Michael Vick scored on a 1-yard run with just 1:55 remaining to lift the Philadelphia Eagles to a 24-23 win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.

Vick took the snap and ran to his left before diving across the goal line.

Final Score: Seattle 27, Dallas 7
