Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos set a record for points through five games as they held off Tony Favre — er, Romo — in an incredible 51-48 victory over the Dallas Cowboys. Romo set a Cowboys record by throwing for over 500 yards, but threw a late interception that led to Matt Prater's 28-yard game-winning field goal.
Calvin Johnson missed the Lions' 22-9 loss against the Packers, but says he absence and aching knee shouldn't keep him out much longer.
Free agent QB Josh Freeman will sign with the Minnesota Vikings after being cut by the Tampa Bay Bucs. The NFLPA will still investigate the drug-testing leak that occurred while he was still with the Bucs.
Saints TE Jimmy Graham set a receiving record with his fourth 100-yard game in a row.
The LA Dodgers routed the Atlanta Braves 13-6, putting them one win away from the NLDS. The Pittsburgh Pirates also took a 2-1 series lead over the Cardinals.
The top five remain unchanged in the AP poll.
UGA lost RB Keith Marshall and WR Justin Scott-Wesley for the season due to injury.
Floyd Mayweather showed up at Miami Heat training camp to provide a little extra motivation.
It's on….
