A weekend full of highlights for your Sooners in the NFL...So let’s get to them!

DeMarco Murray enjoyed another strong outing with 21 carries, 92 yards and one touchdown in a Titans home win against Denver.

Corey Nelson registered 6 tackles in the same game for the Broncos.

The game with the most Sooner drama this weekend featured the Cardinals visiting the Dolphins. There were plenty of big plays made during this near-overtime game that ended with Miami squeezing out a win by a field goal as regulation time expired. Jermaine Gresham caught 5 passes for a team-high 45 yards, while defensive teammate Tony Jefferson (and Pro-Bowl candidate) grabbed a game-high 10 tackles in the loss. Dolphins wideout Kenny Stills came up big in the win with 6 receptions for 97 yards and this touchdown/handshake:

Damien Williams rushed 5 times for 7 yards and added 2 catches for 1 yard one touchdown for Miami, while Jordan Phillips defended a pass and blocked this kick:

Speaking of defensive plays, Demontre Hurst picked off Matt Stafford, but his Bears came up short against the Lions in Detroit:
