The Detroit Lions quarterback completed 18 of 18 passes for 292 yards and two touchdowns during a 42-29 win over the Seattle Seahawks at Ford Field.

DETROIT — The Seahawks left Ford Field with a 42-29 loss and wondering about a two-point play they didn’t get.

They left ruing what might have happened had there not been a penalty they did get.

What they won’t question is an effort Monday night that kept the ...Read more

MIAMI — New quarterback. Same result.

The Miami Dolphins hoped recently-acquired former Pro Bowl quarterback Tyler Huntley could inject some life into the team’s anemic offense.

Other 2-2 NFC teams: San Francisco,...Read more

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid did not have the final word Monday that receiver Rashee Rice will miss the season with a torn ACL.
