Redskins stop T.O.-less Eagles 17-10
Nov 6 2005 11:55PM (CT)
LANDOVER, Md. (AP) - With or without Terrell Owens, the Philadelphia Eagles are losing and in danger of slipping out of the playoff race. The Eagles fell to sole possession of last place in the NFC East on Sunday night because of their anemic running game and an offense that produced only one touchdown. The Washington Redskins, rebounding from the worst loss of coach Joe Gibbs' career, rode a more balanced attack and touchdown runs by Mike Sellers and Clinton Portis to a 17-10 victory.

Nov 6 2005 6:27PM (CT)
BALTIMORE (AP) - The Cincinnati Bengals could have viewed Sunday's 21-9 win over the bruised and punchless Baltimore Ravens as routine. But a team that until two years ago rarely had victories of any kind had to make something more of it, preferring to see this as one of Cincinnati's best wins in a 7-2 season because it was a physical victory against a physical team.

Nov 6 2005 4:43PM (CT)
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) - No need for LaDainian Tomlinson to pass for touchdowns Sunday against the New York Jets. He got plenty the old-fashioned way.
