MIAMI, Nov. 15 (UPI) -- Dan Carpenter's 25-yard field goal with 10 seconds left boosted the Miami Dolphins to a slim 25-23 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Carpenter's game-winner, his fourth field goal in the contest, followed a five-play, 77-yard drive in 64 seconds directed by Chad Henne.

The Dolphins (4-5) have split their last four contests.

Henne completed 17-of-31 for 175 yards, one touchdown and one interception.

The pick was by linebacker Quincy Black inside the Miami 30 on a third-down pass with 1:43 remaining.

Ricky Williams rushed for 102 yards on 20 carries, while Ronnie Brown gained 82 on 12 attempts before an ankle injury forced him to the sidelines.

Tampa Bay's Josh Freeman completed 16-of-28 passes for 196 yards, one touchdown and one interception.

Kellen Winslow Jr. caught seven passes for 102 yards, while Connor Barth three field goals for the Buccaneers (1-8), who could not build upon their 38-28 over Green Bay last Sunday.
