    Monday Night Football live updates: Lions hold off Seahawks as Titans pick up first win of the season

    Caradoc Wyn Posted on

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

    The Lions pulled ahead late, earning a 42-29 victory over the Seahawks at Ford Field in the second of two Monday Night Football games to close out the week. This was Seattle’s first loss of the year.

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

    Smith also had a great evening. He threw for 395 yards and a touchdown in the loss for Seattle. DK Metcalf also had 104 yards on seven catches.

    In the first game of the evening, it was Mason Rudolph – not Will Levis – who led the Tennessee Titans to their first win of the season. The Titans earned a commanding 31-12 win over the Miami Dolphins in South Florida, moving them to 1-3 on the year. Rudolph replaced Levis early in the first quarter after he was injured, and he carried the team the rest of the way. He finished the game 9 of 17 for 85 yards. Tony Pollard ran 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 finished 12 of 20 for 81 yards.

    • Goff returns the favor

      After Amon-Ra St. Brown threw him one earlier in the night, it’s only fair that Jared Goff returned the favor. Towards the end of the fourth quarter, the Lions again had a two-point lead.

    • Final: Titans 31, Dolphins 12

      The Titans defeated the Dolphins to get their first win of the season.

    • Tony Pollard calls game

      And that should be the case in Miami. Tony Pollard grabs one last touchdown and secures the victory for the Titans.

    • Kenneth Walker again

      Make it a third s for Kenneth Walker! The Seahawks and Lions currently only trade touchdowns.

    • touchdown, dolphins

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

    • Jameson Williams for the Lions!

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

    • Seahawks 20, Lions 28

      The Seahawks are absolutely keeping up with Detroit in this half. Kenneth Walker just scored a 1-yard score to keep Seattle in this one. The two-point conversion wasn’t good, though, so it’s an eight-point game.

    • Jared Goff with the touchdown

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

    • David Montgomery is unstoppable

      My God, David Montgomery.

    • Lions 21, Seahawks 14

      It 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 3: Titans 19, Dolphins 6

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

    • Titans 16, Dolphins 6

      Tony Pollard breaks off a big run and sets up a short touchdown for Tyjae Spears. The Titans’ lead is now 10.

    • Half: Lions 21, Seahawks 7

      The Seahawks will get the ball out of the break.

      Lions:

      Jared Goff: 12 of 12 for 92 yards

      David Montgomery: 42 rushing yards, 1 TD

      Seahawks:

      Geno Smith: 17 of 24 for 165 yards

    • Mason Rudolph returns to start the second half

      The Seahawks were on the attack before halftime and pulled off that perfect trick to get through midfield.

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

    • Miami first half QB stats:

      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 wasn’t sure who would start at quarterback in the second half. If Will Levis can play with his injured shoulder, Callahan says he will play.

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

    • Fortunately, the first half came to an end in Miami. The Dolphins and Titans combined for four field goals, six punts, one fumble and one interception. The Titans led 9-3 at halftime with a third field goal by Nick Folk as time expired.
