NFL Week 11 round-up: Saints soar past Eagles
The New Orleans Saints inflicted a crushing 48-7 defeat on last season's Super Bowl Champions the Philadelphia Eagles to equal the best record in the league.
The victory over the Eagles was the Saints' ninth in a row and third-straight victory with a double-digit margin, with Drew Brees finding the end zone four times.
Brees, who completed 22 of 30 passes for 363 yards, drove the Saints to a 17-0 lead early in the second, when Josh Adams' 28-yard rush put the Eagles on the board.
But it was one-way traffic after that: Tre'Quan Smith found the endzone to put the Saints up 24-7 at the half and two more scores in the third from Michael Thomas and Mark Ingram put the result beyond doubt.
Alvin Kamara got in on the action with a 37-yard score in the fourth, before a Wil Lutz field goal rounded off the scoring.
The Houston Texans won their seventh straight NFL game on Sunday as opponents the Washington Redskins lost quarterback Alex Smith to a broken leg.

Replacement Colt McCoy led a comeback attempt, with a nine-yard touchdown pass to Jordan Reed added to Adrian Peterson's second rushing score, but two Ka'imi Fairbairn field goals saw Houston home 23-21 as Washington kicker Dustin Hopkins came up short on a late 63-yard attempt.
The wins sees Houston two games clear in the AFC South after the Indianapolis Colts beat divisional rivals the Tennessee Titans 38-10. Andrew Luck threw for 297 yards and three touchdowns, two of them to wide receiver TY Hilton.
The division's fourth team, the Jacksonville Jaguars, blew a 16-0 lead to lose 20-16 to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Leonard Fournette ran for 95 yards and a touchdown on 28 carries but Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger overcame a slow start to throw for 314 yards and two touchdowns before diving in for the game-winner himself with five seconds left.
The Chicago Bears won the battle of the NFC North after seeing off rivals the Minnesota Vikings 25-20.
The Bears scored 14 without reply in the first half, with Cody Parkey making a pair of field goals and Mitchell Trubisky hitting Anthony Miller for a 18-yard TD.
Two late touchdowns from the Vikings brought them to 25-20, but the two-point attempt failed so Minnesota needed a TD with 48 seconds left to play.
Bailey's onside kick went straight into the hands of Chicago's Benny Cunningham and two kneel-downs saw the clock run out.
