Eagles Return Opening Kickoff For Touchdown

The Eagles got started early with a 107-yard opening kickoff return for a touchdown and scored quick again on their next drive for an early 14-0 lead.

How do you keep Bad Mark Sanchez from showing up? You get points without him. It took the Eagles 13 seconds to take a 7-0 lead against the Titans with a 107-yard kickoff return on the opening play of the game. Josh Huff caught the ball deep in the end zone and was barely touched the whole way down the field. A couple of quick cuts sprung him and a well-timed stiff-arm at his own 35-yard line kept Huff going until the Tennessee 25-yard line, where he shrugged off his last obstacle.

With a 7-0 lead, Good Mark Sanchez then engineered another scoring drive, with Darren Sproles finding the end zone on a four-yard run. The play was reviewed and upheld, and Philly is out to an early 14-0 lead.
