NFL ROUNDUP Friday's other preseason games

Bengals 16, Colts 13
CINCINNATI -- Carson Palmer made a rookie mistake: He pointed to the sky too soon. Other than a premature touchdown celebration on a goal-line fumble, Palmer looked like an up-and-coming quarterback during the Cincinnati Bengals' victory over the Indianapolis Colts. The Heisman Trophy winner who didn't take a snap as a rookie looked ready to go in his final preseason game. He made good decisions against a basic Colts defense -- except for his celebration, that is -- and kept the offense moving in three possessions. Palmer went 10-of-14 for 106 yards, including a 7-yard touchdown pass to fullback James Lynch.
Jets 28, Eagles 27
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The New York Jets enjoyed the preseason right through the final seconds. Rallying from a 27-7 deficit, the Jets scored three touchdowns in the last 5:14 to beat the Philadelphia Eagles. Granted, it was with second and third-stringers on the field, but it still was a rousing comeback by New York (3-1), capped by Brooks Bollinger's 1-yard pass to Matt Dominguez with 8 seconds remaining. Bollinger came on with seven minutes remaining, replacing the rusty Quincy Carter. He led New York to Ian Smart's 1-yard TD run on a drive highlighted by Ken-Yon Rambo's 52-yard catch and run.
Redskins 27, Falcons 0
LANDOVER, Md. -- Mark Brunell opened the game with a touchdown drive and was done for the night. Michael Vick opened with an interception and never did produce a play for positive yardage. Brunell and the Washington Redskins tuned up for the regular season with a thumping of the Atlanta Falcons, who just might have pulled off the most useless road trip of the preseason. Brunell, looking for some momentum to take into the regular season after winning the starting job over Patrick Ramsey, went 4-for-6 for 51 yards on a 78-yard opening drive aided by a questionable third-down defensive holding penalty.
Dolphins 20, Saints 19
NEW ORLEANS -- Jay Fiedler threw for one touchdown, Sage Rosenfels threw for another and the Miami Dolphins got a victory in a game they did not want to play, beating the New Orleans Saints. New Orleans nearly delayed the Dolphins' trip home, scoring a touchdown with 1:59 left, but the Saints missed the 2-point conversion, allowing Miami to get out of town quickly. With Hurricane Frances headed toward Florida, the Miami players asked the NFL to cancel the game, but the league refused.
Titans 27, Packers 7
NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee and Green Bay wanted their starters to play longer than usual in the teams' final exhibition game to avoid a long layoff before the season openers. Titans cornerback Samari Rolle didn't need much time at all. He tipped a pass to linebacker Keith Bulluck, who returned the interception 70 yards for a touchdown, and then picked off a Brett Favre pass to help lead the Titans to a win over the Packers. Rolle, who didn't play in the first three exhibitions because of a sore right ankle, played only the first two series.
