In Carolina, the Eagles managed to keep their position atop the NFC and keep their seven-game winning streak alive with a victory over the tough Panthers.
John Kasey, the only player left from the Panthers inaugural season and normally a dependable kicker, missed three field goals and an extra point, which ended up making the difference in the Eagles’ nine point victory.
Donovan McNabb continued to impress, throwing for 182 yards and a touchdown, he threw just one pick early in the game while Carolina got another 100-yard rushing effort from Stephen Davis.
Carolina remains two games over the Saints in the NFC South and the Eagles took a one game lead on the realing Cowboys.
