In East Rutherford, the Eagles managed to move above .500 for the first time this season, despite some poor performances from quarterback Donovan McNabb and a plethora of injuries, by beating the hapless New York Jets.

Correll Buckhalter keyed the Eagles’ ground attack, running for 100 yards and two scores.

The game also saw the return of Jets quarterback Chad Pennington, despite his sub-par outing. The Jets started veteran Vinny Testaverde, who actually played well, throwing for 112 yards and a score. But Testaverde was yanked in the second quarter in favor of the younger quarterback.

Pennington put up similar numbers in his time out on the field, but also gave up a costly interception that halted what looked like a Jets scoring drive.
