Baltimore Ravens buck the Broncos' perfect season
By The Associated Press

The Baltimore Ravens handed Denver its first loss by using the same blueprint the Broncos employed to win their first six games. Rookie Lardarius Webb returned the second-half kickoff 95 yards for a touchdown, and the Ravens ended a three-game losing streak with a surprisingly easy 30-7 victory Sunday. It was Denver's first loss under rookie head coach Josh McDaniels.

The Broncos (6-1) came in with the NFL's top-ranked defense, a plus-seven turnover differential and one of the league's best kick returners in Eddie Royal. Denver had also outscored the opposition 76-10 after halftime.

The Ravens, however, dominated all those facets of the game. Baltimore (4-3) limited Denver to 200 yards, scored off the game's lone turnover, won the special teams fight and pulled away after leading by only 6-0 at halftime.

Texans rout Bills

Once the Houston Texans addressed their turnover troubles and turned to backup running back Ryan Moats, they solved the offensively inept Buffalo Bills and ran away with a 31-10 win on Sunday.

Moats, taking over after starter Steve Slaton lost yet another fumble, scored three touchdowns on consecutive fourth-quarter drives to help the Texans (5-3) win their third straight game for their best start in franchise history. Matt Schaub bounced back from two first-half interceptions to lead six scoring drives on seven possessions.
