Cellular ft Patriots 31,Colts 6 Four touchdown passes in a game is getting to be a habit for New England’s Drew Bledsoe. Bledsoe did it for the second consecutive week as New England defeated the Indianapolis Colts 31- 6 Sunday. Chargers 20, Saints 6 Jim Everett got even. Everett beat his old team and coach Mike Ditka, the man who cut him, as the San Diego Chargers de feated the New Orleans Saints 20-6 Sunday. Panthers 9, Falcons 6 The clock was ticking toward 0:00 and it didn’t look like the Carolina Panthers would get off another play But Steve Beuerlein managed to down the ball with one second left and John Kasay followed with his third field goal of the fourth quarter, a 39- yarder that gave the Panthers a 9-6 vic tory Sunday over the Atlanta Falcons. Buccaneers 24, Lions 17 Tampa Bay rookie Warrick Dunn had Detroit fans thinking Barry Sanders was in the wrong uniform. The vastly improved Buccaneers’ defense made Sanders wish he was. Dunn carried 24 times for 130 yards, including a 6-yard touch down as the Bugs beat the strug gling Lions 24-17 Sunday. It was the first 2-0 start since 1992 for the Bugs, who went 0-5 to start last sea son. Bills 28, N.Y.

In a game of big plays, Todd Collins made the most with three touchdown passes, looking as ef fective as Jim Kelly, the man he has replaced at quarterback for Buffa lo. And the Bills’ defense, led by Bryce Paup, had eight sacks.
