NFL roundup: Cardinals win on last-second Hail Mary

Murray scrambled to his left and heaved the ball into the end zone. Hopkins
made a leaping grab while surrounded by three defenders.

Murray threw for 245 yards and one touchdown and rushed for 61 yards and two
more scores on 11 carries. He became the fourth quarterback in NFL history to
score a rushing touchdown in five consecutive games. Hopkins finished with 127
receiving yards on seven catches. Kenyon Drake added 100 rushing yards on 16
carries for the Cardinals (6-3).

Josh Allen threw a 21-yard scoring pass to Stefon Diggs with 34 seconds
remaining to put Buffalo on top prior to the Cardinals' Hail Mary pass. Allen
threw for 284 yards and two touchdowns with two interceptions. He also led his
team with 38 rushing yards on seven carries and caught a touchdown pass.

Saints 27, 49ers 13

Alvin Kamara scored three touchdowns and host New Orleans overcame the loss of
Drew Brees to defeat San Francisco.

Kamara rushed for two touchdowns and caught Brees' final pass of the game for
a second-quarter touchdown as the Saints (7-2) won their sixth consecutive
game. Brees did not play in the second half because of a rib injury and Jameis
Winston and Taysom Hill played in his place.

Nick Mullens made his fifth start in place of injured Jimmy Garropolo (ankle)
for the 49ers (4-6) and completed 24 of 38 for 247 yards with one touchdown
and two interceptions.

Buccaneers 46, Panthers 23

Tom Brady threw for three touchdowns and scored on a run and running back
Ronald Jones II burst free for a 98-yard touchdown scamper as visiting Tampa
Bay bounced back for a victory against Carolina at Bank of America Stadium in
Charlotte, N.C.

The Buccaneers (7-3), who racked up 544 yards of total offense, swept the
season series from Carolina, both times following a loss to the New Orleans
Saints by beating the Panthers. Brady, who was coming off one of the worst
performances of his 21-year career, was 28-for-39 for 341 yards.

The Panthers (3-7) lost their fifth consecutive game despite quarterback Teddy
Bridgewater's two touchdown passes. He was 18-for-24 for 136 yards and an
interception before exiting with a knee injury on a fourth-quarter sack with
about five minutes left.

Patriots 23, Ravens 17

Rex Burkhead caught two touchdown passes, one on a throw from receiver Jakobi
Meyers, as host New England recorded a victory over Baltimore at Foxborough,
Mass.

Cam Newton passed for one score and rushed for another as New England (4-5)
won its second straight game. Newton completed 13 of 17 passes for 118 yards,
and Damien Harris rushed for a career-best 121 yards on 22 carries as the
Patriots prevailed in a heavy rainstorm.

Lamar Jackson completed 24 of 34 passes for 249 yards with two touchdowns and
one interception as the Ravens (6-3) lost for the second time in the past
three games. Jackson added a team-high 55 yards on the ground on 11 rushes,
while Willie Snead caught two scoring passes.

Dolphins 29, Chargers 21

Tua Tagovailoa tossed two touchdowns and improved to 3-0 as a starter in
leading host Miami past Los Angeles.

Miami (6-3) won its fifth straight game as Tagovailoa completed 15 of 25
passes for 169 yards and no interceptions. Tagovailoa outdueled fellow rookie
quarterback Justin Herbert, who was selected sixth in the 2020 NFL Draft --
one spot after Tagovailoa.

The Chargers (2-7) are in last place in the AFC West, and Herbert is 1-7 as a
starter. Herbert completed 20 of 32 passes for 187 yards, two touchdowns and
one interception.

Rams 23, Seahawks 16

Malcolm Brown rushed for two touchdowns as Los Angeles moved into a three-way
tie for first place in the NFC West with a victory against visiting Seattle in
Inglewood, Calif.

The Rams (6-3) pulled even with the Seahawks (6-3), who have lost three of
their past four games, and the Arizona Cardinals (6-3), who defeated the
Buffalo Bills.

The Rams held Seattle to a season low in points. The Seahawks had scored more
than 30 points in seven of their previous eight games, with 27 their low
before Sunday.

Packers 24, Jaguars 20

Aaron Rodgers threw for two touchdowns and ran for another to help host Green
Bay defeat pesky Jacksonville at Lambeau Field.

Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Davante Adams had scoring receptions for the
Packers (7-2), who lead the NFC North. Rodgers finished 24 of 34 for 325 yards
and one interception, his third of the season.

Keelan Cole Sr. returned a punt 91 yards for a score as the Jaguars (1-8)
suffered an eighth straight loss. Jacksonville rookie Jake Luton, making his
second career start in place of injured Gardner Minshew II (thumb), was 18 of
35 for 169 yards, with one touchdown and one interception in mid-30-degree
weather.

Steelers 36, Bengals 10

Ben Roethlisberger passed for a season-best 333 yards, including four
touchdowns, as Pittsburgh remained undefeated by routing visiting Cincinnati.

While the Steelers' run game sputtered, totaling only 44 yards, Roethlisberger
was 27 of 46 with scoring passes to rookie Chase Claypool (two), Diontae
Johnson and JuJu Smith-Schuster. Pittsburgh (9-0) was not assured
Roethlisberger would be available until Saturday because of COVID-19 contact
tracing protocol.

For Cincinnati (2-6-1), rookie quarterback Joe Burrow was 21 of 40 for 213
yards with a touchdown pass to Tee Higgins. Burrow played much of the game on
what appeared to be a sore left ankle. The Bengals went 0-for-13 on third-down
chances.

Raiders 37, Broncos 12

Josh Jacobs rushed for 112 yards and two touchdowns and Jeff Heath intercepted
two passes as host Las Vegas forced five turnovers en route to its third
straight victory over Denver.

It was the second 100-yard rushing game in the last three, and seventh in 22
career games for Jacobs. Las Vegas (6-3) closed to within two games of
first-place Kansas City in the AFC West.

Derek Carr completed 16 of 25 passes for 154 yards, Daniel Carlson added three
field goals and Devontae Booker added two fourth-quarter touchdown runs for
the Raiders. Drew Lock completed 23 of 47 passes for 257 yards and a touchdown
but was intercepted four times for Denver (3-6).

Browns 10, Texans 7

Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt combined for 230 yards on the ground and Cleveland
slugged out a victory over visiting Houston.

Chubb and Hunt recorded 19 attempts each against the Texans' 32nd-ranked run
defense. After Houston (2-7) closed to within three points on a 16-yard
touchdown pass from Deshaun Watson to Pharaoh Brown with 4:59 remaining, Chubb
sealed the win with a 59-yard, third-down run to the Houston 1, wisely running
out of bounds so that Cleveland could exhaust the game clock.

Chubb rushed for 126 yards in his first action since Week 4 due to a knee
injury. Hunt added 104 yards for the Browns (6-3). Watson finished 20-of-30
for 163 yards and a touchdown. He was sacked twice. The Texans totaled only
243 yards.

Giants 27, Eagles 17

Daniel Jones threw for 244 yards and rushed for a touchdown as New York
tightened up the NFC East race with a win over Philadelphia at MetLife Stadium
in East Rutherford, N.J.

Jones completed 21 of 28 passes with no interceptions, marking the first time
in his two-year career he has played consecutive games with no turnovers.
Wayne Gallman added two short touchdown runs as New York (3-7) enters its bye
week with consecutive wins.

Carson Wentz hit on 21 of 37 passes for 208 yards with no touchdowns or
interceptions as Philadelphia failed to convert a single third down (0 for 9).
The Eagles (3-5-1) still sit atop the division but have a challenging schedule
ahead.

(4-5), while Marvin Jones caught eight passes for 96 yards and a touchdown.

rushed for 45 yards and two scores.
