Colts stay perfect, thanks to missed kick

• INDIANAPOLIS 20, HOUSTON 17: Running back Joseph Addai scored the go-ahead touchdown with 7:11 left and the Texans' Kris Brown missed a 42-yard field goal as time expired, keeping the Colts undefeated. Indianapolis blew a 13-0 first-half lead and trailed 17-13 when Steve Slaton opened the fourth quarter with a 1-yard TD run. But Addai answered with a 2-yard TD run to rally the Colts, who now have a 3 1/2 game lead on the Texans.

• CINCINNATI 17, BALTIMORE 7: Cedric Benson gained 117 yards and the Bengals got ahead early and ground one out at home. Cincinnati scored on its first three possessions, then spent the rest of its time chasing Baltimore's Joe Flacco around the field. Flacco was sacked four times and completed just 18 of 32 passes for 195 yards, two interceptions and no TDs.

• NEW ENGLAND 27, MIAMI 17: Tom Brady and Randy Moss connected on two highlight-reel plays. Moss set up the Patriots' first touchdown with a one-handed, 36-yard grab at the Dolphins 1, then scored on a 71-yard play after catching the ball about 10 yards beyond the line of scrimmage. Moss caught six passes for 147 yards, while Brady completed 25 of 37 throw for 332 yards.

JACKSONVILLE 24, KANSAS CITY 21: David Garrard threw for 264 yards, including a 61-yard touchdown to Mike Sims-Walker, to lead the Jaguars. Maurice Jones-Drew gained 97 yards and scored a touchdown. Matt Cassel threw for 262 yards and two scores for Kansas City-- both to newcomer Chris Chambers, claimed off waivers Tuesday from San Diego.
