Eagles fire on all cylinders in road win over Rams

ST. LOUIS -- Michael Vick rushed for 98 yards, LeSean McCoy scored two touchdowns and DeSean Jackson topped 100 receiving yards as the Philadelphia Eagles began their self-proclaimed Super Bowl drive with a 31-13 victory over the Rams on Sunday.

The Eagles had 239 rushing yards and were 8 of 11 on third downs. The defense applied constant pressure and piled up five sacks, two by Justin Babin. Darryl Tapp forced a Sam Bradford fumble that led to an easy 56-yard touchdown return by Juqua Parker .

Steven Jackson ran for a 47-yard score on the Rams' first play, but he lasted only one more carry before leaving with a right leg injury for St. Louis. Quarterback Sam Bradford left for X-rays on a finger of his throwing hand in the fourth quarter.
