incredibly accurate right foot.This one will be remembered as the one he lost.Tucker missed the first conversion of his career after the Baltimore Ravens scored the potential tying touchdown with 24 seconds left P. J. Williams Jersey , enabling Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints to escape with a 24-23 victory Sunday.Brees threw two touchdown passes, locked up two more milestones and engineered a fourth-quarter comeback that helped the Saints (5-1) wipe out a 10-point deficit.It was 24-17 before Baltimore's Joe Flacco directed a beat-the-clock drive covering 81 yards and ending with a 14-yard touchdown pass to John Brown.That seemingly set up overtime, given that Tucker is the most accurate kicker in NFL history in terms of field goal percentage. Not only that, but he was 222 for 222 on conversions since breaking into the league in 2012, and was the only NFL kicker without a miss (112 for 112) since the placement of the ball was moved back in 2015.This attempt, however, went wide right 鈥?the deciding moment in a matchup between the NFL's highest-scoring offense and top-ranked defense."I can't tell you exactly what happened," Tucker said, "but at the end of the day I feel like I cost us the game."When the ball sailed right, Tucker looked incredulously at the goalposts , eyes wide and mouth agape."I thought I hit it well," he said. "The ball didn't go through and that's all it needs to do to keep the game going."The Saints were relieved to escape with their fifth straight victory."You're talking about one of the top kickers," coach Sean Payton said. "I'm sure we'll watch the tape tomorrow and think it shouldn't have come down to a missed extra point."Brees brought the Saints back against a unit that allowed only 12 second-half points all season. The 39-year-old quarterback threw a 5-yard TD pass to Michael Thomas with 4:58 remaining to put New Orleans ahead 21-17, and the Saints tacked on a field goal just before the two-minute warning.Earlier, Brees threw his 500th career touchdown pass, connecting with tight end Benjamin Watson for a 1-yard score to put New Orleans up 7-3 late in the second quarter.The NFL leader in career passing yardage, Brees joined Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Brett Favre as the only quarterbacks in league history with 500 TD passes."It's a significant benchmark, yet you're in the middle of the game and you're not really paying attention to it," Payton said. "I think more importantly, it's the final team he needed to beat."Indeed, Brees defeated the Ravens for the first time. Previously 0-4 against Baltimore, Brees is one of three quarterbacks 鈥?along with Favre and Manning 鈥?to beat every team in the league."You only get to play these guys once every four years, and not to put the pressure on it each and every time, but every time we play these guys, it's been a battle," Brees said. "They've had some pretty great defenses over those years."Brees went 22 for 30 for 212 yards. Facing a defense that made 11 sacks one week earlier in Tennessee, Brees escaped the tenacious Baltimore rush with the exception of a fourth-quarter sack by Terrell Suggs.Flacco completed 23 of 39 passes for 279 yards for the Ravens (4-3), including a 56-yarder to Brown that set up a 1-yard touchdown run by rookie quarterback Lamar Jackson for a 10-7 halftime lead.An 8-yard pass from Flacco to rookie tight end Mark Andrews put the Ravens ahead 17-7 with 3:30 left in the third quarter.ALL FOR NOTHINGAfter converting three fourth-down plays during the opening series 鈥?including a successful fake punt 鈥?New Orleans misfired on its fourth attempt of the drive.New Orleans held the ball for 20 plays and 9 minutes, 58 seconds. But the Saints came away empty when backup quarterback Taysom Hill fumbled on fourth down from the Baltimore 4.It was the longest drive to result in no points since the Browns went 9:59 against the Jets in the first week of the 2015 season.Coming into the game, Baltimore's opponents were 0 for 4 on fourth down.INJURIESSaints: Guard Josh LeRibeus left with an ankle injury in the second quarter.Ravens: OL Bradley Bozeman left in the second quarter with a left calf injury, returned to action and left again in the fourth quarter. ...

Melvin Gordon (hamstring) was listed as questionable for the Chargers, the same designation the Seahawks gave Chris Carson (hip) on the injury report.Demaryius Thomas is set for a significant role in his return to Denver. The Texans lost Will Fuller, their second-leading receiver, to a knee injury to necessitate the trade for Thomas. Houston's third-leading receiver, rookie Keke Coutee, didn't make the trip because of a hamstring injury.The Broncos were down three starters. Safety Darian Stewart (neck stingers), cornerback Bradley Roby (ankle) and inside linebacker Brandon Marshall (knee) were all out. Will Parks replaced Stewart and Tramaine Brock stated in place of Roby.
