FOXBORO -- With 21 points in the first 27 minutes, the Eagles already have scored more points against New England than 8 of the Patriots' previous 10 opponents did in entire games.

Oddly, it is the winless Dolphins who have scored the most points against the Pats -- 28. The Cowboys scored 27. New England won those games, 49-28 and 48-27. The high-scoring Colts were held to 20 in the Patriots' 24-20 victory at Indianapolis, which was undefeated at the time.

The Pats have appeared defenseless against Philly, which is led by backup QB A.J. Feeley, playing in place of the oft-injured Donovan McNabb. The Eagles' scoring drives have covered 77, 78, and 68 yards.
