Monday Night Football live updates: Lions fend off Seahawks as Titans grab first win of the season

Must read

It took a perfect outing from Jared Goff, who even caught a touchdown pass himself, but the Detroit Lions fended off Geno Smith and the Seattle Seahawks on Monday night.

The Lions pushed ahead late to grab a 42-29 win over the Seahawks at Ford Field in the second of two “Monday Night Football” games to wrap up the week. That marked Seattle’s first loss of the year.

Goff was perfect in what was a wildly entertaining matchup. He went 18-of-18 for 292 yards and two touchdowns. He threw a 70-yard touchdown to Jameson Williams in the second half, and he caught a 7-yard pass from Amon-Ra St. Brown for a score himself.

Smith had a huge night, too. He threw for 395 yards and a touchdown in the loss for Seattle. DK Metcalf had 104 yards on seven catches, too.

In the first game of the night, it was Mason Rudolph — not Will Levis — who led the Tennessee Titans to their first win of the season. The Titans rolled to a dominant 31-12 win over the Miami Dolphins in South Florida, which moved them to 1-3 on the year. Rudolph replaced Levis early in the first quarter after he went down with an injury, and he carried the team the rest of the way. He finished going 9-of-17 for 85 yards. Tony Pollard ran for 88 yards and a score to seal the win late in the fourth quarter.

The Dolphins used third-string quarterback Tyler Huntley, as both Tua Tagovailoa and Skylar Thompson are dealing with various injuries. Huntley went 12-of-20 for 81 yards.

  • Goff returns the favor

    After Amon-Ra St. Brown threw one to him earlier in the night, it’s only fair that Jared Goff returned the favor. The Lions are up by two scores again late in the fourth quarter.

  • Final: Titans 31, Dolphins 12

    The Titans put the Dolphins away to pick up their first win of the season.

  • Tony Pollard calls game

    And this should do it in Miami. Tony Pollard grabs one last touchdown to seal the win for the Titans.

  • Kenneth Walker, again

    Make that a third s for Kenneth Walker! The Seahawks and Lions are just trading touchdowns at this point.

  • Touchdown, Dolphins

    Finally, the Dolphins have found the end zone. Tyler Huntley just punched in a 1-yard touchdown, but they missed the two-point conversion attempt. The Titans lead by 10 now with about three minutes left.

  • Jameson Williams for the Lions!

    Jameson Williams hauls in a wild 70-yard grab on the first play of the drive to score again for Detroit! It’s 35-20 now late in the third.

  • Seahawks 20, Lions 28

    The Seahawks are absolutely keeping pace with Detroit this half. Kenneth Walker just punched in a 1-yard score to keep Seattle in this thing. The two-point conversion was no good, however, so it’s an eight-point game.

  • Jared Goff with the touchdown

    Amon-Ra with a perfect pass for the touchdown! Detroit is ahead by two possessions once again.

  • David Montgomery can’t be stopped

    My god, David Montgomery.

  • Lions 21, Seahawks 14

    That was the perfect start to the half for the Seahawks, who capped a long drive with a 9-yard touchdown catch from AJ Barner. It’s now a one possession game in Detroit.

  • End of 3: Titans 19, Dolphins 6

    The Titans pushed their lead to 13 points after a Nick Folk field goal. They are now just 15 minutes away from their first win of the season.

  • Titans 16, Dolphins 6

    Tony Pollard breaks open a huge run to set up a short Tyjae Spears touchdown. The Titans’ lead is now 10.

  • Half: Lions 21, Seahawks 7

    The Seahawks will get the ball out of the break.

    First half stats in Detroit:

    Lions:

    Jared Goff: 12-of-12 for 92 yards

    Jahmyr Gibbs: 46 rushing yards, 2TDs

    David Montgomery: 42 rushing yards, 1 TD

    Seahawks:

    Geno Smith: 17-of-24 for 165 yards

    DK Metcalf: 73 yards on 5 catches

  • Mason Rudolph returns to start the second half

    After replacing Will Levis early, Mason Rudolph is back for the Titans.

  • Seahawks pulling out the tricks before halftime

    The Seahawks are driving before half, and pulled out this perfect trick play to get across midfield.

  • Lions 21, Seahawks 7

    Jahmyr Gibbs extends the Lions’ lead with another touchdown run late in the second quarter.

  • First-half QB stats in Miami:

    Titans:
    Will Levis: 3 of 4 for 25 yards, 1 interception
    Mason Rudolph: 8 of 14 for 79 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions

    Dolphins:
    Tyler Huntley: 7 of 10 for 35 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions; 1 lost fumble

    Titans coach Brian Callahan told ESPN he’s unsure who will start at quarterback in the second half. If Will Levis is able to play with his injured shoulder, Callahan says that he’ll play.

    “We’ll see how it comes out,” Callahan said. … “If he can play, he’ll go.”

  • The first half has mercifully come to an end in Miami. The Dolphins and Titans have combined for four field goals, six punts, one fumble and one interception. Titans lead, 9-3 at the half with a third Nick Folk field goal as time expires.
