Vick impressive in cameo

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Michael Vick threw for 74 yards and a touchdown pass in his only series and the new-look Philadelphia Eagles beat the Baltimore Ravens 13-6 on Thursday night in their preseason opener.

Nnamdi Asomugha, Vince Young and several other big-name acquisitions made their first appearances for the Eagles, who've signed a slew of free agents with impressive resumes in the past two weeks.

Joe Flacco played two series and led the Ravens to a field goal on the opening possession. He completed 3 of 6 passes for 60 yards. Ricky Williams, who signed with Baltimore on Monday, was inactive.

Vick, the runner-up to Tom Brady for NFL MVP, completed 4 of 6 passes, including a 3-yard TD toss to Brent Celek. Vick drove the Eagles right down the field against Ray Lewis and Baltimore's vaunted defense.

Patriots 47, Jaguars 12

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) - Third-round draft pick Ryan Mallett played the whole second half and drove New England to touchdowns on his first four series, helping turn a 19-9 halftime lead into a 35-point rout.

The former Arkansas star was 12 of 19 for 164 yards and a touchdown. Stevan Ridley, a third-round choice from LSU, scored three touchdowns on two 1-yard runs and a 16-yard pass from Mallett. Richard Medlin, a rookie free agent from Fayetteville, had two 2-yard touchdown runs.

Blaine Gabbert, the former Missouri quarterback drafted 10th overall, completed 9 of 16 passes for 85 yards for Jacksonville. Playing against mostly backups as top players for both teams sat out the game, the Jaguars scored three field goals on Gabbert's six possessions. He played the entire first half with starting quarterback David Garrard unavailable because of a back injury.

Cowboys 24, Broncos 23

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Tim Tebow's failed scramble just before halftime stood as the play of the game, until Stephen McGee - another option quarterback in college - ran around to throw a 13-yard touchdown pass and a two-point conversion with 15 seconds left, giving Dallas a victory over Denver.

Tebow led the Broncos to two field goals in four drives.

His first scoring series started at Denver's 10 and included a 43-yard pass perfectly lofted into double coverage. The other drive, however, started 7 yards from the end zone and wound up moving backward.

That series began with Tebow running it into the end zone on first down, but a holding penalty wiped it out, shoving the Broncos back to the 17. On third down, Tebow ran almost to the left sideline, back to the middle of the field, then tossed the ball to a waiting receiver for a short gain. However, Tebow crossed the line of scrimmage before ever cutting back, a lineman illegally went up the field to block and another teammate clobbered one of the Cowboys in the back. Dallas declined them all, forcing the Broncos to kick a field goal.

Tebow was 6 of 7 for 91 yards and ran twice for 15 yards. McGee threw three TD passes.

Seahawks 24, Chargers 17

SAN DIEGO (AP) - Thomas Clayton scored on a 25-yard run with 3:05 left to lift Seattle past San Diego.

Tarvaris Jackson passed for 13 yards over two moderately successful series in his debut as Matt Hasselbeck's replacement with the Seahawks. San Diego's Phillip Rivers went 5 for 6 while leading an 89-yard scoring in his only series.

Cornell graduate Bryan Walters returned a kickoff 103 yards for a touchdown late in the third quarter for the Chargers, and Mike Tolbert caught an 8-yard scoring pass to cap the only drive by Rivers.

Leon Washington rushed for a 1-yard score on the Seahawks' opening drive of the second half, and Josh Portis Portis hit Anthony McCoy with a tying 6-yard TD pass with 4:02 left.

San Diego rookie Scott Tolzien's fumble set up Clayton's go-ahead score, but the former Wisconsin quarterback drove the Chargers to the Seattle 5 in the final minute before his final pass pinballed among several players and fell incomplete in the end zone.
