ATLANTA, Dec. 6 (UPI) -- Donovan McNabb completed 14-of-25 passes for 238 yards with one touchdown Sunday, keying Philadelphia's 34-7 rout of the Falcons in Atlanta.

A highlight play was Michael Vick's 5-yard scoring run with 8:08 left in the third quarter, his first touchdown since returning to the NFL after a 18-month prison term on a federal dog-fighting conviction.

The score occurred in the city where Vick started his pro career in 2001 out of Virginia Tech.

Leonard Weaver gained 100 all-purpose yards -- 63 receiving and 37 rushing.

Jeremy Maclin added four catches for 83 yards for the Eagles (8-4), who have won three in a row.

Atlanta's Chris Redman completed 23-of-44 for 235 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions.

The 3-yard scoring pass to Roddy White on the game's last play averted a shutout for the Falcons (6-6), who have lost three of four.
