Without Donovan McNabb, the Philadelphia Eagles tried everything they could on offense. Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints stuck to what they do best.

Brees tossed three more touchdown passes Sunday, helping the Saints beat Philadelphia 48-22.

Brees had six TD passes last week as the Saints (2-0) routed Detroit 45-27. He picked up where he left off, picking apart Philadelphia's secondary and completing 25 of 34 passes for 311 yards and one interception.
