Panthers 41, Saints 10

NEW ORLEANS - Cam Newton passed for three touchdowns and went over the pile for another as the Panthers ended a six-game skid.

Newton's jawing and "Superman" celebration of his 2-yard rushing touchdown in the first quarter drew a shove from linebacker Curtis Lofton, igniting a scrum that went from a closed gate behind the goal post and into a tunnel.

Rams 24, Redskins 0

LANDOVER, Md. - St. Louis has back-to-back shutouts for the first time since 1945, and the first winning streak of the season.

Jared Cook caught two touchdown passes, Tavon Austin returned a punt 78 yards for a score, and the defense allowed 206 total yards as the Rams improved to 5-7.

The Rams sacked Colt McCoy six times. He suffered a neck injury on the sixth sack just before the two-minute warning, so Robert Griffin III finished the game in his first appearance since getting benched two weeks ago. He was sacked once during his brief appearance.

Colts 25, Browns 24

CLEVELAND - Andrew Luck threw a 1-yard touchdown pass to T.Y. Hilton with 32 seconds left, rallying Indianapolis.

Cleveland contained the Colts quarterback until the final minute, but couldn't finish him off.

The Browns got two defensive touchdowns, but Cleveland's offense, led by struggling quarterback Brian Hoyer, couldn't do enough to keep the team's playoff hopes from fading.

Lions 34, Buccaneers 17

DETROIT - Matthew Stafford threw for 311 yards and three touchdowns - including one off a fluky deflection late in the game - and Detroit kept the pressure on in the NFC North race.

The Lions trail first-place Green Bay by a half-game, with the Packers hosting Atlanta on Monday night.

Texans 27, Jaguars 13

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Texans have back-to-back wins for the first time in nearly three months.

And that kept them in the muddled AFC playoff race.

Arian Foster ran for 127 yards and a touchdown, and the Texans won consecutive games for the first time since Week 2.

Foster's 1-yard run on the second play of the fourth quarter gave Houston (7-6) a comfortable cushion in what had been a back-and-forth game.

Raiders 24, 49ers 13

OAKLAND, Calif. - Derek Carr threw three touchdown passes, and the Raiders put a major dent into San Francisco's dwindling playoff hopes.

Carr completed 22 of 28 passes for 254 yards and completely outplayed counterpart Colin Kaepernick as the Raiders (2-11) won their second straight home game surrounding last week's 52-0 loss at St. Louis.

With a second straight loss, the 49ers (7-6) are in danger of missing the playoffs for the first time in coach Jim Harbaugh's four-year tenure.

Broncos 24, Bills 17

DENVER - C.J. Anderson ran for three touchdowns, and the Broncos overcame a rare unsteady outing by Peyton Manning. Manning's streak of 51 straight games with a touchdown throw - three shy of Drew Brees' NFL record - ended on a sun-splashed afternoon in Denver, where the game-time temperature was 63 degrees.

Despite three turnovers, the Broncos won their third straight game since changing from a pass-oriented attack to a run-heavy approach.
