NFL Roundup: Dallas punishes Packers

Green Bay, Wis. – The Dallas Cowboys leaned on their defense and running game – then unleashed little-known wide receiver Miles Austin to put away a 27-16 victory over Green Bay.

Marion Barber ran for a career-high 142 yards and a touchdown, and rookie Felix Jones added a 60-yard touchdown run in the second quarter. Austin, a backup who plays mostly on special teams, sealed the victory with a 52-yard touchdown reception in the fourth quarter.

Dolphins 38, Patriots 13

Foxborough, Mass. – Ronnie Brown and the Dolphins ended the Patriots’ record winning streak at 21 and made New England’s defense look as shaky as its Tom Brady-less offense.

Brown scored a team-record four rushing TD’s and threw for another – with four of the scores coming on direct snaps to the running back.

Bills 24, Raiders 23

Orchard Park, N.Y. – Rian Lindell hit a 38-yard field goal for Buffalo’s victory as the clock ran out. Trent Edwards engineered three scoring drives in the final quarter, helping the Bills twice overcome nine-point deficits in the last eight minutes.
