JAGUARS 24, BRONCOS 17: Maurice Jones-Drew got the bulk of the carries and the bulk of the yards on the ground for Jacksonville, as the Jaguars beat the Denver Broncos. Jones-Drew carried the ball 22 times for 125 yards and two touchdowns. Quarterback David Garrard was just as good, throwing for 276 yards and a touchdown to improve Jacksonville to 3-3. Jay Cutler tossed two touchdown passes for Denver, which drops to 4-2.
EAGLES 40, 49ERS 26: Philadelphia scored 23 unanswered points in the fourth quarter to beat the San Francisco 49ers. Donovan McNabb threw for 279 yards and two touchdowns, while David Akers kicked three of his four field goals in that fourth-quarter rally. The Eagles put it away when Juqua Parker's returned an interception 55-yards for a touchdown with 38 seconds left.
GREEN BAY 27, SEAHAWKS 17: Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers has been in pain all week, but against Seattle he's the one who dished it out. Rodgers ran for a touchdown late in the first half and threw two touchdown passes in the second to lead the Packers by the Seahawks. Rodgers finished 21-of-30 for 208 yards. Charlie Frye, filling in for injured starter Matt Hasselback, was 12-of-23, but had just 83 yards through the air for Seattle. He had a pair of touchdown passes, but also threw two interceptions.
BUCCANEERS 27, PANTHERS 3: The Tampa Bay Buccanneers made a resounding statement in the NFC South with a 27-3 win over the Carolina Panthers. The Bucs' special teams got things going early when rookie Geno Hayes blocked a punt and returned it 22 yards for Tampa Bay's first touchdown, and after that they never looked back. Jeff Garcia threw for 173 yards and a touchdown in his first start since week one for the Buccanneers.
RAMS 19, REDSKINS 17: The St. Louis Rams have their first win of the season, and it comes at the expense of the Redskins. The Rams snapped Washington's four-game winning streak with a win. Josh Brown's fourth field goal of the game was a 49-yarder that came as time expired. The Rams couldn't make it easy, though. Offensive lineman Richie Incognito was called for an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for aiming some choice words at an official as the Rams tried to set up the game winning field goal. Clinton Portis scored two touchdowns for the Redskins.
TEXANS 29, DOLPHINS 28: It was a wild ending in Houston, where the Texans got a three-yard touchdown run from quarterback Matt Schaub with three seconds left to beat the Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins had taken a 28-23 lead with 1:45 left when Ronnie Brown punched it in from six yards out. Schaub also threw for 379 yards and a touchdown. It's the first win of the season for Houston.
VIKINGS 12, LIONS 10: Minnesota's Ryan Longwell hit a 26-yard field goal with nine seconds left to knock off the still-winless Detroit Lions. It was a day of thrilling plays for Minnesota, which started the rally when Gus Frerotte hit Bernard Berrian with an 86-yard touchdown pass in the 3rd quarter. The Vikings got on the board in the 1st quarter when they ran Lions quarterback Dan Orlovsky out of the end zone for a safety.
JETS 26, BENGALS 14: The Cincinnati Bengals are the NFL's other winless team, dropping to 0-6 with a 26-14 loss to the New York Jets. Thomas Jones ran for two touchdowns and caught another from Brett Favre as the Jets improved to 3-2.
COLTS 31, RAVENS 3: It's like old times again in Indianapolis. Peyton Manning tossed two touchdown passes to Marvin Harrison and another to Reggie Wayne and the Colts had no trouble beating the Baltimore Ravens. Manning was good for 271 yards through the air to rejuvenate a Colts offense that had sputtered through the start of the season. The offensive fireworks came even though Indy lost all-pro running back Joseph Addai to a hamstring injury in the 1st quarter. Third-string running back Mike Hart also left the game with a knee injury.
SAINTS 34, RAIDERS 3: The coach is new but the results are still the same for the Oakland Raiders. The silver and black were demolished by the New Orleans Saints on the road. Saints quarterback Drew Brees picked apart the Raiders, completing 26 of 30 passes for 320 yards and three touchdowns. Reggie Bush ran for a touchdown and caught another from Brees. The Raiders were led by interim coach Tom Cable for the first time since Lane Kiffin was fired last month.
