Vick throws for two TDs as Eagles hold off Lions

DETROIT -- Michael Vick's second touchdown pass put the Philadelphia Eagles ahead just before halftime, and they had to hold on to beat the Lions 35-32 on Sunday. LeSean McCoy gave the Eagles (1-1) an 18-point lead with his third score with 6:17 left in the game. The Lions (0-2) rallied to pull within three points and recovered an onside kick with 1:50 left, but they turned the ball over on downs without gaining a yard. Vick started at quarterback for the first time since 2006. He missed two seasons while serving an 18-month sentence for his role in a dogfighting operation and played sparingly last season. Vick was 21-of-34 passing for 284 yards with two TDs, ran for 37 yards and avoided losses with spin moves and slick steps. Lions quarterback Shaun Hill was 25-of-45 passing for 335 yards with two TDs and two interceptions in place of injured starter Matthew Stafford.
