NFL ROUNDUP | Sunday's other games

AFC
Patriots 23, Dolphins 16
MIAMI -- Tom Brady brought New England from behind twice in the second half, throwing a 17-yard TD pass to Benjamin Watson for the winning score with 2:16 remaining. Gus Frerotte drove the Dolphins 70 yards to the 5 with a minute to go, but his fourth-down pass was incomplete with 36 seconds to go. Two-time defending Super Bowl champion New England (5-4) remained alone atop the AFC East. The Patriots have won 21 of their last 25 division games. Miami (3-6) missed a chance to tie for the division lead, instead losing for the fifth time in six games. Four offensive starters were inactive for New England, and a fifth -- running back Corey Dillon -- played briefly because of a leg injury. Brady went 21-for-36 for 275 yards and a pair of touchdown passes to Watson.
Bills 14, Chiefs 3
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- J.P. Losman, taking over after Kelly Holcomb hurt his head in the second quarter, led Bills touchdown drives on two of his first four possessions and showed he deserved his starting job back. Losman finished 9-of-16 for 137 yards, hitting Lee Evans for both touchdowns. Losman was focused and efficient, looking nothing like the hesitant first-year starter who went 1-3 before being replaced by Holcomb following a 19-7 loss to New Orleans on Oct. 2. The Bills (4-5), coming off their bye week, limited the Chiefs (5-4) to 316 yards while generating three interceptions, a fumble and six sacks. Trent Green was uncharacteristically sloppy, going 23-of-40 for 220 yards and three interceptions -- after throwing three in his previous eight games. His first interception ended Green's streak at 159 attempts without an interception.
Jaguars 30, Ravens 3
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Greg Jones ran for a career-high 106 yards and a touchdown, Matt Jones had a career-high 117 yards receiving and a score and the Jaguars reached 30 points for the first time since 2001. Jacksonville (6-3) snapped its NFL-record 58-game streak of not scoring at least 30 points. The Jaguars tied Cleveland's mark last week. Mike Peterson's 26-yard interception return for a score put the Jaguars at the 30-point mark for the first time since Dec. 23, 2001, a 33-3 victory over Minnesota. The Ravens (2-7) lost their fourth consecutive game and eighth in a row on the road. The Ravens also extended their streak of not scoring a touchdown to 11 quarters.
Broncos 31, Raiders 17
OAKLAND, Calif. -- Jake Plummer passed for 205 yards and a touchdown, had no interceptions and wasn't sacked all day, and Jason Elam kicked three field goals for Denver. Darrent Williams returned an interception 80 yards for a fourth-quarter score that ended Oakland's chance at a comeback. The Broncos (7-2) took a two-game division lead after the Kansas City Chiefs lost 14-3 at Buffalo. Kerry Collins had his worst game of the year for Oakland (3-6), completing 26 of 50 passes for 310 yards, doubled his season total with three interceptions and was sacked four times.
NFC
Vikings 24, Giants 21
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The Vikings became the first team in NFL history to get touchdown returns on a punt, a kickoff and an interception. Then quarterback Brad Johnson finally put together a drive, setting up Paul Edinger's 48-yard field goal with 10 seconds remaining. Safety Darren Sharper had three interceptions for the Vikings (4-5), one he returned for a 92-yard touchdown on the first play of the second quarter. Eli Manning finished 23-of-48 for 291 yards for the Giants (6-3) and threw a 23-yard touchdown pass to Amani Toomer to give him 10 straight games with a touchdown pass, the longest active streak in the NFL. But he threw four interceptions and had two others that were dropped by Minnesota defenders.
Lions 29, Cardinals 21
DETROIT -- Roy Williams caught a career-high three touchdown passes from Joey Harrington as Detroit (4-5) ended a two-game losing streak and Arizona (2-7) lost its third straight. The Lions led 19-3 at halftime and by 15 with 8:35 left before Arizona came back. The Cardinals pulled to 29-21 with 2:24 left on Kurt Warner's 8-yard pass to Larry Fitzgerald. After not recovering the onside kick, Arizona got the ball back at its 18 with 1:01 left. The Cardinals' comeback hopes ended at their 39 with a deflected pass on fourth down. Williams, playing an entire game for the first time since Oct. 2, had seven receptions for 117 yards and caught TD passes of 7, 21 and 29 yards. The last Lion to catch three TDs in a game was Herman Moore in 1995.
Seahawks 31, Rams 16
SEATTLE -- Shaun Alexander ran for 165 yards on a season-high 33 carries and three touchdowns, and the Seahawks took a three-game division lead on second-place St. Louis. Seattle (7-2) turned St. Louis' botched fake field goal attempt in the second quarter into a 24-3 scoring run and has won five straight overall for the first time since 1999. The Seahawks swept St. Louis after losing the previous four to the Rams (4-5). Marc Bulger finished 28-for-40 with 304 yards, a touchdown and an interception.
Packers 33, Falcons 25
ATLANTA -- Nigerian-born Samkon Gado ran for 103 yards and scored three touchdowns as the Packers (2-7) won for the second time this season. Brett Favre threw for 252 yards and came up with a great escape on a drive that led to Ryan Longwell's fourth field goal, a 51-yarder with 4:01 remaining that restored Green Bay's nine-point lead. Less than a minute later, rookie receiver Roddy White finished off the Falcons (6-3) with their sixth fumble of the day. Nick Barnett scooped up the ball and returned it to the Atlanta 2, where Gado powered into the end zone for his third TD. Michael Vick threw for 209 yards and a couple of TDs.
INTERCONFERENCE
Panthers 30, Jets 3
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Will Witherspoon returned an interception 35 yards for a touchdown and Ken Lucas grabbed two of Carolina's four interceptions. Carolina (7-2) forced six turnovers to pull away after an uneventful first half. The Panthers scored 20 points off turnovers. Carolina led 10-3 before the Jets (2-7) and quarterback Brooks Bollinger unraveled. The strong defensive showing helped Carolina win on a day in which star receiver Steve Smith was a non-factor with three catches for 34 yards. Bollinger finished 11-of-21 for 98 yards.
