JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Sept. 26 (UPI) -- A resurgent Michael Vick passed for 291 yards and three touchdowns Sunday, leading the Philadelphia Eagles to a 28-3 victory over Jacksonville.

Vick, who was named the Eagles' starting quarterback after coming off the bench last week in a 35-32 win over Detroit, completed 17-of-31 passes and ran for another score.

Vick's favorite target was Jeremy Maclin, who hauled down four passes for 83 yards and two scores. DeSean Jackson also had a big day, making five catches for 153 yards and a score for the Eagles (2-1).

Philadelphia defeated the Jaguars (1-2) for the first time in four all-time encounters.

Jacksonville's David Garrard went 13-of-30 in the passing department for only 105 yards. He faced constant pressure and was sacked six times.

Maurice Jones-Drew gained 88 yards on 22 carries.

The Jaguars began the season 1-2 for a third straight year.
