NFC
Packers 26, Vikings 22
At Green Bay, Wis., the Packers improved to 7-0 at home. Green Bay quarterback Brett Favre is 34-0 in home games when the temperature at kickoff is 34 or lower. It was 11 degrees at the start and quickly dipped into single digits. After the game, the teams brawled in front of the Vikings' bench while Favre and Chris Hovan nearly got into it near the Packers' tunnel. The Packers took the lead for the first time on rookie Tony Fisher's 14-yard touchdown run with 1:06 remaining. Then, Darren Sharper intercepted Daunte Culpepper's pass as time expired and instead of going down, ran 66 yards to the Minnesota 16. The Vikings (3-10) didn't appreciate that and tight end Jim Kleinsasser ignited the fracas with a two-handed shove of Marques Anderson, who blocked on Sharper's return. Favre shook off two early turnovers and threw two touchdown passes to Robert Ferguson, who had career bests with six catches for 105 yards.
Buccaneers 34, Falcons 10

Giants 27, Redskins 21
At Landover, Md., the Giants took advantage of five Washington turnovers to keep their faint playoff hopes alive. Cornerback Ralph Brown set up two touchdowns with runbacks, Kerry Collins threw for 212 yards and two TDs, and Cornelius Griffin had three of New York's six sacks and forced a fumble as the Giants broke a two-game losing streak. The Redskins lost their second straight.
Cardinals 23, Lions 20, OT

INTERCONFERENCE
Chiefs 49, Rams 10
At Kansas City, Mo., Dante Hall returned a kickoff and a punt for a touchdown, one week after running back a punt 90 yards for a score, as the Chiefs eliminated the Rams from playoff contention. St. Louis lost its third straight after winning five in a row. It was the team's most lopsided defeat since 1963. Priest Holmes ran for 132 yards for the Chiefs.
Saints 37, Ravens 25
At Baltimore, Deuce McAllister ran for 127 yards and three touchdowns, and the Saints capitalized on a litany of Baltimore mistakes. Saints quarterback Aaron Brooks left in the third quarter with New Orleans ahead 20-7. Saints officials described the quarterback's injury as a "sore shoulder," and did not indicate whether it was same right shoulder he bruised last week against Tampa Bay. Brooks was replaced by Jake Delhomme, who converted a Jamal Lewis fumble into a touchdown on his first drive and later led the Saints on a 10-play march that produced a field goal for a 30-17 lead with 6:28 remaining. McAllister's third touchdown run, which put New Orleans up by 20 with 3:08 to go, was set up by safety Fred Thomas' second interception of the game. New Orleans blocked two punts, recovered three fumbles and had two interceptions against former teammate Jeff Blake.
