NFL highlights: Saints blast Cowboys behind Alvin Kamara, Derek Carr

Tom Brady named New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara his LFG! Player of the Game for his dominant showing against the Cowboys.

Kamara recorded four touchdowns and 180 total yards.

Kamara did most of his damage early with three touchdowns in the first half alone. He had 115 yards and three touchdowns rushing and another 65 yards and a touchdown receiving. But Brady challenged the Saints' speedster to aim for even more.

"Next time I see you play, I want five touchdowns," Brady joked. "Four wasn't good enough."

"All right," Kamara responded. "I got you."

On the 14th play of the Saints' first possession of the second half, Alvin Kamara snuck around the Cowboys defense for a 7-yard touchdown. It was his fourth touchdown and the team's sixth. The Saints scored a touchdown on each of their six possessions. New Orleans tacked on a field goal in the fourth quarter and won 44-19.

Faced with a third-and-6, Dak Prescott threw up a deep ball to WR Jalen Tolbert, who reeled in a tremendous, contested grab for a 39-yard completion. That said, Dallas was held to a field goal.

Saints cornerback Paulson Adebo intercepted Dak Prescott — assisted by WR Jalen Brooks slipping — running the pick back to the Cowboys' 20-yard line. 

Three plays later, Derek Carr executed a quarterback sneak at the goal line for New Orleans, which found the end zone on all five of its possessions in the first half. The Saints led 35-16 at halftime.

Alvin Kamara is having himself an afternoon. The Saints star running back blasted in a 12-yard touchdown on the ground for his third combined score of the game.

Down two scores, Cowboys QB Dak Prescott hit CeeDee Lamb for a first down completion, but then the star receiver shed a pair of tackle attempts and broke free for a 65-yard touchdown.

Coming off another Dallas field goal, New Orleans bulldozed its way down the field once again. On the fourth play of the drive, Derek Carr got the ball out to RB Alvin Kamara, who evaded multiple tackle attempts, ran around the Cowboys defense and into the end zone for a 57-yard score.

Dallas got a field goal on its first drive, and then New Orleans picked up right where it left off. On the very first play of the drive, Derek Carr threw it up, and Rashid Shaheed brought it down and reached the end zone for a 70-yard Saints touchdown. The Saints led 14-3 with 4:05 remaining in the first quarter.

New Orleans took the opening possession of the game the length of the field. On the seventh play of the drive, RB Alvin Kamara smacked in a 5-yard touchdown for the Saints.

Boxing legend Mike Tyson was on the field pregame, meeting up with Brady, among others. Tyson is scheduled to fight Jake Paul on Nov. 15 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington.
