LOS ANGELES: Quarterback Jalen Hurts ran in an overtime touchdown to give the Philadelphia Eagles a 37-34 NFL win over the Buffalo Bills Sunday (Monday in Manila) and move them to 10-1 on the season.

The Eagles, who lost the Super Bowl to Kansas City last season, trailed at half-time but rallied to win for the fifth straight game.

The defeat was a bitter blow for the Bills who led 17-7 at the break and were ahead with seconds remaining. Buffalo fell to 6-6 and now face a battle to make the playoffs.

The Eagles fightback began when 21-14 behind early in the fourth with DeVonta Smith scoring on a 15-yard pass from Hurts followed by Olamide Zaccheaus clutching a 29-yard touchdown pass from Hurts, despite double coverage.

The Bills responded with quarterback Josh Allen zipping a seven-yard pass to Gabe Davis to lead 31-28 with less than two minutes remaining.

The Eagles suffered two five-yard penalties on their final drive leaving kicker Jake Elliott to make a 59-yard attempt in heavy rain to force overtime.

Tyler Bass converted a 40-yard field goal for the Bills before Hurts capped a nine-play, 75-yard drive by spotting a gap for the walk-off touchdown.

Kansas City Chiefs came back from an early 14-point deficit for a 31-17 win against the Raiders in Las Vegas.

Isiah Pacheco ran for a one-yard touchdown and then Patrick Mahomes connected with Justin Watson on a three-yard pass as Kansas City went in level at half-time.

Another Pacheco touchdown put the Chiefs in front and although the Raiders managed a field goal in response, Kansas City’s 10 points in the fourth quarter ensured the victory to take them to 8-3.

Jacksonville quarterback Trevor Lawrence threw for 364 yards and a touchdown as the Jaguars stretched their AFC South lead with a nail-biting 24-21 victory over division rivals Houston.

The Jags improved to 8-3, avenging a 37-17 home loss to the Texans, who fell to 6-5.

Houston quarterback C.J. Stroud threw for 306 yards and two touchdowns enabling him to overtake Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert for most passing yards by a rookie in his first 11 games.
