LANDOVER, Md. (AP) - Robert Griffin III threw four
touchdown passes Sunday, and the Washington Redskins broke a 3-game
losing streak with a 31-6 win over the skidding Philadelphia Eagles.
Griffin completed 14 of 15
passes for 200 yards and also ran 11 times for 85 yards. He threw for
scores of 6, 49, 61 and 17 yards - one in each quarter.
Philadelphia's Nick Foles was 21
for 46 for 204 yards in his first NFL start, and his first two series
ended with interceptions. Foles was starting in place of Michael Vick,
who suffered a concussion in last week's loss to the Dallas Cowboys.
The Redskins improved to 4-6.
The Eagles (3-7) have dropped six straight, accelerating the countdown
toward the possible end of Andy Reid's 14-year tenure as coach.
