Jeremy Maclin came up with a big touchdown late for the Philadelphia Eagles, but it was running back Darren Sproles who stole the show with 178 total yards and one touchdown. Nick Foles threw the tying touchdown pass to Maclin with 3 minutes, 25 seconds to go and then set up Cody Parkey for the winning 36-yard field goal as time expired, lifting Philadelphia to a 30-27 win at Indianapolis.  The Eagles (2-0) have won six consecutive road openers. Indianapolis (0-2) has lost consecutive regular-season games for the first time since Andrew Luck and Chuck Pagano arrived in 2012. The Colts led most of the night, but a three-and-out with the game tied set the Eagles up with time to win it.
