Justin Tucker’s field goal helps Baltimore Ravens beat Cincinnati Bengals

Justin Tucker’s field goal was the difference as the Baltimore Ravens secured a dramatic 41-38 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals.

Both quarterbacks starred as Joe Burrow completed five touchdowns and Lamar Jackson threw for four in a game which also saw Baltimore running back Derrick Henry score his 100th career touchdown.

After tying 38-38 in regular time, the game boiled down to overtime, where Evan McPherson missed a field goal and a great rush from Henry set Baltimore up perfectly for Tucker to kick the winning field goal.

The Minnesota Vikings extended their unbeaten run to five games with a 23-17 victory over the New York Jets in London.

Touchdowns from Andrew van Ginkel and CJ Ham put the Vikings in control, but the Jets responded with two touchdowns before Will Reichard made the game safe with a 41-yard field goal.

The Jacksonville Jaguars fended off a late scare from the Indianapolis Colts to win 37-34 and pick up their first victory of the season.
