LeSean McCoy rushed for a career-high 185 yards and two scores and Michael Vick tossed two touchdown passes as the Philadelphia Eagles cruised to a 34-7 home triumph over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night in a crucial NFC East battle.
Vick tossed a 9-yard scoring strike to tight end Brent Celek and a 12-yard touchdown pass to Jeremy Maclin for Philadelphia (3-4), which has won two in a row.
The Eagles improved to 13-0 after a bye under coach Andy Reid and won for the first time at home since last season.
Vick finished with 279 yards on 21 for 28 passing and McCoy carried the ball 30 times as Philadelphia controlled the time of possession by over 25 minutes.
McCoy shredded the league's best rush defense and scored touchdowns from 2 and 13 yards out.
Dallas (3-4) managed just a late touchdown pass of 70 yards from Tony Romo to Laurent Robinson to snap the shutout. Rookie DeMarco Murray rushed for 74 yards on eight carries but the Cowboys ran the ball just 10 times on the night.
