Manning guides Giants over Vick-less Philadelphia

| September 26, 2011 9:00 PM

Eli Manning threw four touchdown passes, including two to Victor Cruz, and the visiting New York Giants (2-1) beat the Philadelphia Eagles 29-16 Sunday.

Michael Vick started despite suffering a concussion in last week's 35-31 loss at Atlanta. He left with a broken right hand in the fourth quarter after helping the Eagles (1-2) overcome a 14-0 first-quarter deficit to take a 16-14 lead.

Bills 34, Patriots 31: At Orchard Park, N.Y., Rian Lindell hit a 28-yard field goal as time expired and Buffalo snapped a 15-game losing streak against New England (2-1) and lifted its record to 3-0.

Buffalo won in dramatic fashion, overcoming a 21-0 second-quarter deficit. It's the second straight week the Bills rallied; they overcame a 21-3 deficit in a 38-35 win over Oakland last week.

49ers 13, Bengals 8: Kendall Hunter ran 7 yards for the game's only touchdown with 3:59 to go, rallying visiting San Francisco (2-1) over Cincinnati (1-2).

Hunter's run completed the only noteworthy drive by the 49ers, who didn't cross midfield until midway through the third quarter.

Lions 26, Vikings 23, OT: At Minneapolis, Matthew Stafford threw for 378 yards and two touchdowns to rally Detroit (3-0) from a 20-0 halftime deficit, and Jason Hanson kicked a 32-yard field goal in overtime to beat Minnesota (0-3).

Calvin Johnson had seven catches for 108 yards and two TDs for the Lions - 3-0 for the first time since 1980. They won in the Metrodome for the first time since 1997, snapping a 13-game skid.

Packers 27, Bears 17: Aaron Rodgers threw for 297 yards and three touchdowns to Jermichael Finley, and visiting Green Bay (3-0) shut down Jay Cutler and Chicago (1-2).

Buccaneers 16, Falcons 13: Josh Freeman scored the first rushing touchdown of his career and host Tampa Bay's (2-1) defense forced three turnovers in beating Atlanta (1-2).

Saints 40, Texans 33: Drew Brees passed for 370 yards and three touchdowns, and twice led host New Orleans (2-1) back from fourth-quarter deficits to beat Houston (2-1).

Panthers 16, Jaguars 10: At Charlotte, N.C., Cam Newton found Greg Olsen over the middle for a 16-yard touchdown with 4:20 left to lift Carolina (1-2) past Jacksonville (1-2).

Titans 17, Broncos 14: At Nashville, Tenn., Matt Hasselbeck threw a 4-yard touchdown pass to Daniel Graham with 4:24 left to complete Tennessee's (2-1) rally over Denver (1-2).

The Titans lost Kenny Britt, the AFC's leading receiver, when his right knee buckled in the second quarter. Hasselbeck turned to others, including Graham, whose first catch of the season came against his former team. Hasselbeck, the former Seattle Seahawk, threw for 311 yards and two TDs.

Raiders 34, Jets 24: Darren McFadden ran for 171 yards and two touchdowns and host Oakland (2-1) bullied two-time defending AFC runners-up New York (2-1) on the ground to win its home opener.

Chargers 20, Chiefs 17: Eric Weddle intercepted Matt Cassel at midfield with 55 seconds left to preserve host San Diego's (2-1) victory over winless Kansas City (0-3).

Steelers 23, Colts 20: Shaun Suisham kicked a 38-yard field goal with 4 seconds left, lifting Pittsburgh (2-1) at Indianapolis (0-3).

Ravens 37, Rams 7: Rookie Torrey Smith's first three career catches went for touchdowns totaling 133 yards in the first quarter, sparking a franchise record-setting day on offense as visiting Baltimore (2-1) beat St. Louis (0-3).

Browns 17, Dolphins 16: Colt McCoy threw a 14-yard touchdown pass to Mohamed Massaquoi with 43 seconds left to cap an 80-yard drive and rally host Cleveland (2-1) over winless Miami (0-3).
