Vince Young had a banner day behind center, but it wasn't enough to avoid a tough loss for the Eagles against the Patriots, 38-20, at home.

Young had a great game, going 26 for 48 with 400 yards passing, one touchdown and one pick. Tom Brady gave the Patriots a big boost, and ended up going 24 of 34 with 361 yards through the air, three touchdowns and no interceptions.

LeSean McCoy rushed for 31 yards on 10 carries with a touchdown in addition to four receptions for 30 yards. Jason Avant was a highlight, catching eight passes for 110 yards with a touchdown.

The Philadelphia defense fell apart, giving up 353 yards passing and 104 rushing. They tackled Brady for a sack.

Patriots wide receiver Wes Welker could not be contained, putting up 115 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Wide receiver Deion Branch was also solid with 125 receiving yards.

The Eagles travel to Seattle next week to meet the Seahawks (4-7) while the Patriots are at home to take on the Colts (0-11).
