NFL Preseason Scores: Patriots 27, Eagles 25
The New England Patriots opened the preseason with a hard-fought 27-25 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles Thursday night.
Quarterback Tom Brady tossed two touchdowns in his return to the field (both to tight end Chris Baker), while rookie Julian Edelman returned a punt 75 yards for another score and the Patriots topped the host Eagles in both team's exhibition opener at Lincoln Financial Field.
Brady finished 10 of 15 for 100 yards with the two touchdowns and one interception.
Sammy Morris led the team with 12 carries for 54 yards. Edelman topped the team with five receptions for 37 yards. Jerod Mayo registered a team-high 5 tackles.
The Eagles top performer was first year player Eldra Buckey rushing for 23 yards and a touchdown, Buckley also caught six passes for 56 yards and another touchdown in a losing effort.
Donovan McNabb was out of the game when Eldra Buckley scored rushing and receiving touchdowns in the third quarter for the Eagles, cutting the Patriots' lead to 24-22 at the end of the quarter. With 57 seconds left in the game, David Akers missed a 43-yard field-goal attempt that could have won it for the Eagles.
McNabb went 11-for-18 for 103 yards, the Eagles second-round draft pick LeSean McCoy rushed for 55 yards on 10 carries and their first round pick Jeremy Maclin caught two passes for 44 yards.
