Kyler Murray’s last-minute heave and DeAndre Hopkins’ catch in traffic gave the Arizona Cardinals a memorable 32-30 victory over the Buffalo Bills. With 11 seconds left and his team down four, Murray scrambled and skied a pass to the end zone. Hopkins hauled it in with three Buffalo defenders around him for the 43-yard touchdown as two seconds remained on the clock. Murray rushed for two touchdowns in the third quarter to help Arizona come back from a 16-9 halftime deficit. The Cardinals improved to 6-3, while the Bills fell to 7-3. San Francisco 49ers 13-27 New Orleans Saints Drew Brees was pulled at halftime with a rib injury after passing for just 76 yards and one touchdown, but Alvin Kamara scored three times and New Orleans’ defense largely stifled San Francisco to help the Saints secure a 27-13 victory over the 49ers. Brees’ injury appeared to occur when defensive tackle Kentavius Street was called for a personal foul on a sack in which he got a clean shot at the 41-year-old quarterback and landed directly on top of him. Officials ruled Street violated the NFL’s “bodyweight rule,” which bans defenders from landing on a defenseless passer with all or most of their weight. Brees missed just two plays after the hit and returned for a third-down pitchback to Kamara that resulted in a 2-yard touchdown that tied it at 10. Brees continued to play for the rest of the second quarter, going 5 for 6 on a two-minute drive that he completed with a 3-yard touchdown toss to Kamara that made it 17-10 just before halftime. But when the second half began, Jameis Winston took the field while Brees stood with his helmet on and his hands on his hips in front of New Orleans’ bench, where he watched the rest of the Saints’ sixth straight victory. Cincinnati Bengals 10-36 Pittsburgh Steelers The Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Cincinnati Bengals 36-10 to become the NFL’s first team to get to 9-0 since the 2015 Carolina Panthers. Pittsburgh have won the first nine games of a season for the first time in franchise history. Tampa Bay Buccaneers 46-23 Carolina Panthers Tom Brady threw for 341 yards and was involved in four touchdowns, Ronald Jones had a franchise-record 98-yard touchdown run, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers bounced back from a dreadful defeat with a resounding 46-23 win over the Carolina Panthers. Coming off the most lopsided loss of his illustrious career, a 38-3 defeat to the Saints, Brady threw touchdown passes to Cameron Brate, Mike Evans and Rob Gronkowski, then ran for another score in the fourth quarter to seal the win. Jones’ run in the third quarter broke open a tight game. He raced up the middle behind left guard, shook off safety Tre Boston and was gone. Jones finished with a career-high 181 yards and became the fourth NFL player with a TD run of 98 yards or longer, joining Tony Dorsett, Derrick Henry and Ahman Green. Jacksonville Jaguars 20–24 Green Bay Packers Aaron Rodgers threw two touchdown passes and ran for a third score as the Green Bay Packers overcame numerous mistakes to rally for a 24-20 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Rodgers put the Packers (7-2) ahead for good with 9:11 left by throwing a six-yard TD pass to Davante Adams, who had left with an ankle injury earlier in the second half. Rodgers also had a five-yard touchdown run and a 78-yard scoring strike to Marquez Valdes-Scantling, who caught four passes for a career-high 149 yards. Keelan Cole scored on a franchise-record 91-yard punt return and a 12-yard reception for Jacksonville (1-8), who lost their eighth straight. Jacksonville’s James Robinson rushed for 109 yards on 23 carries. Seattle Seahawks 16-23 Los Angeles Rams Jared Goff passed for 302 yards, Darious Williams made two interceptions and the Los Angeles Rams took a share of the NFC West lead with a 23-16 victory over the Seattle Seahawks. Malcolm Brown rushed for two touchdowns and Darrell Henderson had another score as the Rams (6-3) returned from their bye week and held Seattle to three points after halftime to win for the fifth time in the rivals’ past six meetings. Russell Wilson passed for 248 yards and rushed for 60 more for the Seahawks (6-3), who have lost three of four after a 5-0 start. Wilson threw two interceptions and lost a fumble, giving him 10 combined turnovers in Seattle’s three losses. Los Angeles Chargers 21-29 Miami Dolphins The Miami Dolphins already have more victories this season than in all of 2019 after beating the Los Angeles Chargers to improve to 6-3. They finished 5-11 last year. Rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was 15 of 25 passing with 169 yards and two touchdowns. The fifth overall pick in this year’s draft beat No6 pick Justin Herbert, who was 20 of 32 for 187 yards, two TDs and an interception. Miami got 85 yards and a score on the ground from undrafted free agent Salvon Ahmed, who got carries in place of healthy scratch Jordan Howard. The Chargers lost their third in a row to fall to 2-7. Houston Texans 7-10 Cleveland Browns Nick Chubb returned from a stint on injured reserve and scored a touchdown early in the fourth quarter topping 100 yards rushing along with teammate Kareem Hunt and the Cleveland Browns pushed through rough weather for a 10-7 win over the Houston Texans. Chubb reeled off a 59-yard run with 1:07 left and then smartly ran out of bounds at the two-yard line instead of scoring so the Texans, who were out of timeouts, wouldn’t get the ball back. Chubb finished with 126 yards on 19 carries. Hunt finished with 104 yards, including 37 yards and three first downs on Cleveland’s final drive as the Browns (6-3) ran out the clock. Washington 27-30 Detroit Lions Matt Prater made a 59-yard field goal as time expired, lifting the Detroit Lions to a 30-27 win over Washington. Matthew Stafford threw two of his three touchdown passes in the first half and directed the winning drive with just 16 seconds left. Rookie defensive end Chase Young was called for roughing the passer, giving Detroit the ball at midfield. Stafford threw a nine-yard pass to Marvin Jones to set up the kick. The Lions (4-5) won at home for the first time in more than a year after building a 14-point lead at halftime and going ahead 24-3 midway through the third quarter. Washington (2-7) pulled into a tie by scoring touchdowns on three straight series in the second half in Alex Smith’s first start in nearly two years. But the defense could not stop Stafford when it mattered most. Philadelphia Eagles 17-27 New York Giants The New York Giants made their case to win the dreadful NFC East. Daniel Jones threw for 244 yards and ran for a touchdown, Wayne Gallman Jr had two TD runs and the Giants beat the Philadelphia Eagles. The Giants improved to 3-7 under first-year coach Joe Judge with their second straight win, snapping an eight-game losing streak against Philly. The Eagles (3-5-1) still lead the NFL’s worst division. Dallas and Washington are each 2-7. Denver Broncos 37-12 Las Vegas Raiders Josh Jacobs ran for 112 yards and two TDs and Jeff Heath had two of Las Vegas’ five takeaways to help the Raiders beat the Denver Broncos 37-12 for their third straight win. Derek Carr didn’t have to do much for the Raiders (6-3) offensively for a change as the running game and an opportunistic defense that came into the game last in the league with five takeaways carried the load. Heath intercepted Drew Lock twice in the first half, Carl Nassib and Nick Kwiatkoski got picks in the fourth quarter and Nevin Lawson forced and recovered a fumble by DaeSean Hamilton to send the Broncos (3-6) to their third loss in four games.
