Belichick earned his 325th win (regular and postseason) to pass
George Halas (324) on the all-time list. New England (4-4) also
won its 13th straight game against the Jets (5-3).
Folk, who played for New York for seven seasons, made field
goals of 31, 42, 49, 45 and 52 yards. Mac Jones completed 24 of
35 passes for 194 yards with one touchdown and one interception,
and Rhamondre Stevenson finished with 143 yards from scrimmage
(72 receiving, 71 rushing).

yards and two touchdowns. He completed just 20 of 41 passes and
threw three interceptions. Garrett Wilson hauled in six of those
completions for 115 yards, and Tyler Conklin had two receiving
scores.
49ers 31, Rams 14
Christian McCaffrey had a passing, rushing and receiving
touchdown as visiting San Francisco continued its regular-season
dominance over rival Los Angeles at Inglewood, Calif.
McCaffrey had a 34-yard passing touchdown in the second quarter,
a 9-yard receiving score in the third and a 1-yard rushing TD in
the fourth to seal San Francisco's eighth consecutive
regular-season victory over Los Angeles. Jimmy Garoppolo was
21-of-25 passing with 235 yards and two touchdowns for the 49ers
(4-4).

ankle injury.
Falcons 37, Panthers 34 (OT)
Younghoe Koo booted a 41-yard field goal with 1:55 left in
overtime as Atlanta pulled out a wild victory against visiting
Carolina.
The Panthers' PJ Walker hooked up with a diving DJ Moore for a
62-yard touchdown heave with 12 seconds left in regulation, but
an unsportsmanlike penalty on Moore contributed to a longer
extra-point kick that was off the mark and kept the game tied at
34-34.
Still, Carolina (2-6) appeared poised to win after CJ Henderson
intercepted a pass in overtime. Eddy Pineiro missed a 32-yard
field goal. Given another chance on offense, the Falcons (4-4)
drove 55 yards to set up Koo's winner.
Broncos 21, Jaguars 17
Latavius Murray rushed for a 2-yard touchdown with 1:43
remaining to lift Denver to a win over Jacksonville at London.
Russell Wilson returned from a nagging hamstring injury that
kept him out of Denver's 16-9 loss to the New York Jets on Oct.
23. He completed 18 of 30 passes for 252 yards with a touchdown
and an interception for the Broncos (3-5).

overall and ninth in a row by one score.
Cowboys 49, Bears 29

Dallas' dominant victory over Chicago in Arlington, Texas.
The Cowboys (6-2) have won six of their past seven games and
dealt the Bears (3-5) their fourth loss in their past five
contests. Pollard got the start with Cowboys running back
Ezekiel Elliott nursing an ailing knee. Pollard paced a Dallas
offense which was potent from the start, scoring on its first
four possessions and delivering the highest scoring output of
any team in the league so far this season.
Led by quarterback Justin Fields, Chicago fought its way back
after falling behind 28-7. Eddie Jackson also had a key
interception with 28 seconds left in the first half which led to
a Cairo Santos field goal on the last play of the second
quarter. Fields threw two touchdown passes and completed 17 of
23 for 151 yards while also rushing for another touchdown and
finishing with 60 yards on eight attempts on the ground.
Dolphins 31, Lions 27
Tua Tagovailoa threw for 382 yards and three touchdowns and
visiting Miami defeated Detroit.

for 188 yards, while Waddle hauled in eight passes for 106
yards. Raheem Mostert rushed for 64 yards on 14 carries for

hung on for a 34-26 victory over Arizona in Minneapolis. The

game.

touchdowns while adding a score on the ground. Dalvin Cook (20
carries, 111 yards) and Alexander Mattison (five carries, 40
yards) combined for 151 rushing yards and two touchdowns for the
Vikings (6-1).
Kyler Murray completed 31 of 44 passes for 326 yards and three
touchdowns but was intercepted twice. In his second game back
from a league suspension, wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins had 12
receptions on 13 targets for 159 yards and one touchdown for the
Cardinals (3-5).
Saints 24, Raiders 0
Alvin Kamara tallied 158 yards of total offense and scored his
first three touchdowns of the season as host New Orleans routed
Las Vegas.
Kamara ran for 62 yards and one touchdown and had 96 receiving
yards and two touchdown catches as the Saints (3-5) won for just
the second time since the season opener. According to the NFL,

with at least one rushing touchdown and one receiving touchdown
in his first six seasons.
The Raiders' Derek Carr threw for just 101 yards, completing 15
of 26 passes with one interception. Josh Jacobs, who entered the

(2-5).
Eagles 35, Steelers 13
Jalen Hurts threw three first-half touchdown passes to A.J.
Brown and unbeaten Philadelphia matched the best start in
franchise history with a victory over visiting Pittsburgh.
The Eagles (7-0) tied the 2004 squad that won its first seven
contests en route to a Super Bowl appearance, while the
cross-state rival Steelers (2-6) are off to their worst start
since 2013. Hurts completed 19 of 28 passes for 285 yards and a
career-high four touchdowns -- after throwing six in the first
six games combined. Brown had six catches for a career-high 156
yards.
Steelers rookie Kenny Pickett was 25 of 38 for 191 yards with an
interception and a fumble. He was sacked six times. An Eagles
penalty on fourth-and-goal and some trickery helped the Steelers
knot the game at 7-7 on wide receiver Chase Claypool's 1-yard TD
toss to Derek Watt with 1:57 left in the first quarter. Nick
Skiba also made his first career field goal late in the second
quarter for Pittsburgh.
Titans 17, Texans 10
Derrick Henry rushed 32 times for 219 yards and two touchdowns
as visiting Tennessee stopped punchless Houston.
It was the fourth consecutive 200-yard performance for Henry
against the Texans (1-5-1), dating back to 2019, and the most
rushing yards by any player this year. Tennessee (5-2) rushed
for 314 yards as a team and threw just one pass in the second
half.
Rookie quarterback Malik Willis, making his first NFL start in
place of Ryan Tannehill (ankle, illness), completed 6 of 10

yards. Dontrell Hilliard added 83 yards on the ground for the
Titans, who won their fifth straight game to remain in first
place in the AFC South.

nine-play, 89-yard drive as Washington roared back from a late
nine-point deficit to stun host Indianapolis.
In his second game since replacing injured quarterback Carson
Wentz, Heinicke went 23-of-31 passing for 279 yards with one
touchdown and one interception. His 33-yard strike to Terry
McLaurin to the Colts 1-yard line set the stage for the winning
score. McLaurin racked up 113 yards on six catches for the
Commanders (4-4).
Indianapolis quarterback Sam Ehlinger, who was making his first
career start and his season debut, completed 17 of 23 passes for
201 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. Jonathan Taylor
finished with 16 carries for 76 yards for the Colts (3-4-1).
Seahawks 27, Giants 13
Tyler Lockett overcame a pair of rare miscues to catch the
tiebreaking touchdown as Seattle defeated visiting New York in
the NFL's lone matchup of the week between teams with winning
records.
The veteran receiver hauled in a pass from Geno Smith down the
right sideline and scored a 33-yard touchdown with 9:18
remaining to put Seattle ahead for good. Smith was 23 of 34 for
212 yards and two touchdowns for the NFC West-leading Seahawks
(5-3). Smith went 5 of 5 for 75 yards on the go-ahead drive.
Lockett finished the game with five receptions for 63 yards.
The Giants (6-2) were limited to 225 yards of total offense by a
Seattle defense that was ranked 29th in total yardage. Daniel

times. Saquon Barkley gained just 53 yards on 20 carries.

touchdowns and one interception for the Packers (3-5), who lost
their fourth consecutive game. Aaron Jones had a season-best 143
rushing yards and Romeo Doubs and Samori Toure had scoring
