UPDATE 1-NFL-Bills rout Jets in Detroit, Ravens beat Saints

(Updates with Ravens-Saints game) Nov 24 (Reuters) - The Buffalo Bills overcame the loss of home field advantage and a lack of practice time to trounce the New York Jets 38-3 in Detroit on Monday, while Baltimore kept pace in the hotly contested AFC North with a 34-27 road win over New Orleans. The Bills were forced to move the game from its original Sunday slot in Buffalo after a huge snowstorm earlier in the week created public safety issues and prevented the team from practicing. The win at Detroit's indoor Ford Field pushed Buffalo to a 6-5 record, within a game of the current sixth seed in the AFC playoff picture, while the Jets dropped to 2-9. Quarterback Kyle Orton threw two touchdowns as part of his 230 yards while wide receiver Robert Woods contributed 118 yards and a touchdown to lead the Bills. Woods' opening score was followed by a Jets field goal but that first quarter kick by Nick Folk was the only time New York troubled the scoreboard as the Bills turned a 14-3 halftime lead into a rout. In Monday's other game, Ravens running back Justin Forsett ran for two touchdowns and 182 yards as Baltimore scored a crucial win over the Saints. While the Ravens improved to 7-4 to join Pittsburgh and Cleveland just a half game behind Cincinnati in their ultra-competitive division, the Saints fell back into a tie with Atlanta at 4-7 atop the not-so-impressive NFC South. Forsett pushed the advantage to 14 points from a 20-yard touchdown run with three minutes left to cap off a huge night and while the Saints scored with 40 seconds remaining a failed onside kick attempt ended the game. Forsett said the key was getting into the running lanes his team mates opened up. "The offensive line did a great job of making those lanes open for me and I just tried to seize the moment," Forsett, who was cut from Jacksonville in March before ending up at the Ravens, told ESPN. "I have put in a lot of work throughout my whole career being in the shadows and just came out tonight trying to show what I can do." Ravens safety Will Hill earlier tipped the scales in the visitors favour with a 44-yard interception return late in the third quarter, snatching a Drew Brees pass from behind Jimmy Graham to break a 17-17 deadlock. Graham scored two touchdowns for the Saints, who led 17-14 at halftime, and Brees had a 420 yard night with three touchdowns, but it was not enough to stop a third straight loss, all at home.
