Bears Lose Late; Pack Tops Minnesota; Luck Leads Indy In Final Moments

 width=>>OT Touchdown Lifts Seahawks Over Bears

Russell Wilson connected with Sidney Rice on a 13-yard touchdown with 7:33 left in overtime to lift the Seattle Seahawks to a wild 23-17 victory over the Chicago Bears on Sunday.

Unbeaten in five home games, the Seahawks finally figured a way to win on the road after dropping 5 of their first six, and knocked off the NFC North leaders in the process.

This one sure was dramatic.

Seattle took a short-lived lead late in regulation on Wilson's 14-yard pass to Golden Tate, only to watch the Bears' Robbie Gould boot a 46-yard field goal as time expired to send it into OT.

Wilson finished with 293 yards and a pair of scores for Seattle, which moved to 7-and-5. Rice and Golden Tate each had over 95 yards and a score in the win. Marshawn Lynch rushed for 87 yards and a TD for the Hawks.

Bears kicker Robbie Gould hit a 46-yard field goal as time expired to send the game to OT. Jay Cutler tossed for 233 yards and two touchdowns for Chicago, which dropped to 8-and-4. Brandon Marshall hauled in 10 balls for 165 yards.

The Seahawks got their only other road win at Carolina.

(St. Louis, MO) -- Greg Zuerlein nailed a game-winning 54-yard field goal with 26 seconds left in overtime, as the Rams stunned the 49ers, 16-13. Janoris Jenkins' two-yard fumble return for a touchdown tied the game with just over three minutes left in regulation. After a David Akers field goal with 1:34 to go, Zuerlein booted a 53-yard field goal as time ran out to force the extra period. Sam Bradford finished 26-of-39 for 221 yards for the Rams, who have won two in-a-row to improve to 5-6-and-1. Colin Kaepernick threw for 208 yards and ran for 84 yards on nine carries, but had the costly fumble deep in St. Louis territory that resulted in the game-tying score. The rookie was also whistled for a safety in the third quarter. Frank Gore rushed for 58 yards and a TD for the Niners, who fell to 8-3-and-1. The teams were 26 seconds shy of tying for the second time this season, a feat that hasn't happened since 1963.

>>Colts Clip Lions Late

(Detroit, MI) -- Andrew Luck connected with Donnie Avery from 14-yards out to give the Colts a 35-33 win over the Lions as time expired. Luck finished with four scores, three interceptions and 391 yards for Indianapolis, which improved to 8-and-4. Avery had two TDs and 91 yards in the win. The Colts host the Titans next week.

 width=>>Packers Bounce Back With Win Over Vikings

(Green Bay, WI) -- Aaron Rodgers threw for 286 yards and a touchdown as the Packers bounced back to beat the Vikings, 23-14. James Starks rushed for 66 yards and a TD, while James Jones had the lone receiving score for the Packers. Green Bay had its five-game winning streak snapped with a 38-10 loss to the Giants last week. Adrian Peterson rumbled for 210 yards and a TD for the Vikings, who have lost two in-a-row and four-of-five overall. Christian Ponder finished 12-of-25 for just 119 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions in the setback.
