FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- The Buffalo Bills took advantage of sloppy, Tom Brady-less New England to hand the Patriots their first home shutout at Gillette Stadium, winning 16-0 on Sunday.It was the first loss of the season for New England (3-1), which was playing its final game before Brady returns from his four-game Deflategate suspension. The Patriots, who moved into Gillette Stadium in 2002, were last blanked at home 6-0 by the New York Jets in 1993 at Foxboro Stadium.Tyrod Taylor connected with LeSean McCoy for a 7-yard touchdown pass in the first quarter, Dan Carpenter added three field goals for Buffalo (2-2).It was Buffalos second win in its last 16 visits to Foxborough. Including his tenure with the New York Jets, it gave Bills coach Rex Ryan his first regular-season road victory over Bill Belichick in eight tries. The last Bills shutout win away From Orchard Park was 23-0 over Washington in a Buffalo home game at Toronto on Oct. 30, 2011.After struggling to maintain drives and finding a run-pass balance, Taylor was spot-on Sunday. He finished 27 for 39 for 246 yards, and directed a unit that was 7 for 15 on third downs. The Bills had been 10 of 36 combined in the first three games.Buffalos defense also carried over its dominant effort from its 33-18 win over Arizona, sacking rookie Jacoby Brissett three times.STEELERS 43, CHIEFS 7PITTSBURGH -- Ben Roethlisberger threw five touchdowns passes for the fifth time in his career and Pittsburgh throttled Kansas City.A week after suffering the franchises worst loss in 27 years, the Steelers (3-1) responded by overwhelming the erratic Chiefs (2-2).Roethlisberger hit Antonio Brown -- wearing cleats featuring the profile of golf great and western Pennsylvania native Arnold Palmer -- for a pair of scores.Roethlisberger also found Markus Wheaton, Darrius Heyward-Bey and Jesse James for touchdowns as the Steelers emphatically rebounded from a 31-point meltdown in Philadelphia. The quarterback finished 22 of 27 for 300 yards and a rating of 152.5, just shy of a perfect 158.3 rating.LeVeon Bell ran for 144 yards on 18 carries and caught five passes for 34 yards in his return from a three-game suspension for violating the NFLs substance abuse policy.COWBOYS 24, 49ERS 17SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Ezekiel Elliott ran for 138 yards and a touchdown and Dak Prescott threw for two scores to help the Cowboys overcome an early 14-point deficit to beat the 49ers.The Cowboys (3-1) fell in a 14-point hole early in the second quarter before taking over the game behind a pair of rookies who have helped the team get off to a fast start this season with starting quarterback Tony Romo sidelined by a back injury.Prescott threw for 245 yards and had a 20-yard touchdown pass to Terrance Williams and a 4-yarder to Brice Butler to tie the game at the half.Elliott then took over with 96 yards rushing in the second half, including a 1-yard run that gave Dallas the lead for good late in the third quarter.Blaine Gabbert got off to a fast start to help San Francisco (1-3) take the early lead but struggled to generate any offense after that.RAIDERS 28, RAVENS 27BALTIMORE -- Derek Carr threw four touchdown passes, the last to Michael Crabtree with 2:12 left.After the Ravens rallied from a nine-point deficit in the fourth quarter to go ahead with 3 + minutes remaining, Carr directed a 66-yard drive that ended with a 23-yard strike to Crabtree in the back of the end zone.Carr went 25 for 35 for 199 yards.

The totals by Ryan and Jones are the most ever allowed by Carolina.One week after being held to one catch in a win at New Orleans, Jones had a 75-yard scoring catch late in the game as Atlanta solidified its early hold on the NFC South lead.Carolina quarterback Cam Newton, the 2015 league MVP, left in the fourth quarter and was evaluated for concussion symptoms after taking a hit from Deion Jones on a successful 2-point run. There appeared to be helmet-to-helmet contact but there was no penalty on the hit.The defending NFC champion Panthers (1-3) scored three fourth-quarter touchdowns, including scoring passes from Newtons replacement, Derek Anderson, to tight end Greg Olsen and Corey Brown. Robert Alfords 30-yard interception return for a touchdown with 1:14 remaining clinched the win for the Falcons (3-1).`BRONCOS 27, BUCCANEERS 7TAMPA, Fla. -- Paxton Lynch made his NFL debut sooner than expected, stepping in for injured starter Trevor Siemian to help the Broncos remain unbeaten with a victory over the Buccaneers.Siemian left the game with two minutes remaining in the first half with what the defending Super Bowl champions described as an injury to his left (non-throwing) shoulder. He remained in uniform and watched the second half from the sideline, wearing a baseball cap while Lynch -- the 26th pick in this years draft- finished the Broncos ninth consecutive win.Siemien threw a touchdown pass to Demaryius Thomas, capitalizing on Aqib Talibs interception and 25-yard return to the Bucs 11 on Tampa Bays opening possession.

Andersons 1-yard run for a 14-7 lead.For the second straight week, play was stopped in the fourth quarter at Raymond James Stadium because of inclement weather.

But his fourth-and-1 pass at the Jacksonville 49 with 1:36 remaining fell from the hands of tight end Dwayne Allen to preserve the victory for under-fire Jaguars coach Gus Bradley.The Jaguars got a semblance of a running game going for the first time this season. T.J. Yeldon carried 13 times for 68 yards and Bortles added seven scrambles for 36 yards, including a 1-yard run that put Jacksonville ahead 14-6 midway through the second quarter.The Colts repeatedly self-destructed on offense with dropped balls and another costly Luck interception that led to Jacksonvilles opening touchdown. The Colts proved just as reckless on defense as pass interference and unnecessary roughness penalties extended three Jacksonville scoring drives.The Jaguars led 23-6 after three quarters before the Colts mounted a tenacious comeback.SEAHAWKS 27, JETS 17EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Russell Wilson was sharp and efficient despite playing with a sprained knee, throwing three touchdown passes.Wilson injured the medial collateral ligament in his left knee last week against San Francisco and wasnt his usual mobile self in this one, but his arm was plenty good.

Fuller, who ran a 4.32 40-yard dash at the combine, took the punt and quickly made a trio of Titans miss before outrunning everyone else down the sideline for the score.BEARS 17, LIONS 14CHICAGO -- Brian Hoyer threw for 302 yards and two touchdowns, and the Bears (1-3) got a win after starting 0-3 for the second time in as many seasons under coach John Fox.They also stopped a six-game home losing streak as well as a six-game slide against Detroit (1-3), though things got tight near the end.Chicago was leading 17-6 when Andre Roberts returned a punt 85 yards for a touchdown. Golden Tate then caught a 2-point conversion pass from Matthew Stafford to cut it to 17-14 with 1:52 left, but the Bears recovered the onside kick.Hoyer was on target in his second straight start with Jay Cutler nursing a sprained right thumb. He was 28 of 36 passes against a defense missing the injured Ezekiel Ansah and DeAndre Levy.Eddie Royal caught seven passes for 111 yards and a touchdown.
