Calvin Johnson started his career when Tom Brady was 30, played a full career, and has been inducted into the Hall of Fame as a first-ballot finalist - and Brady plays in another Super Bowl tomorrow night.

- Houston traded away both Jadeveon Clowney and DeAndre Hopkins and didn’t get a first round pick.
- The Eagles are projected to be $35M under the 2023 cap. They have two upcoming first round picks. They found their franchise QB. They have A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, and Dallas Goedert. Something special is brewing here.
- Career stats on 58+ yard FGs: Jake Elliott: 4 for 4 (100.0%) Justin Tucker: 3 for 13 (23.1%)
- Nick Castellanos is legitimately so bad that I was upset when Bryce Harper reached base because that effectively ended the game.
- From passing on Justin Jefferson to creating a QB controversy with the drafting of Jalen Hurts to bringing back an aging Jason Peters to ignoring LBs altogether, Howie Roseman essentially created the blueprint for how to destroy a season AND a once-promising QB in Carson Wentz.
- Most receiving yards after age 40 in NFL history: 2,509: Jerry Rice 6: Tom Brady 0: everyone else except Brett Favre -2: Brett Favre
- Richard Sherman and Patrick Peterson combined to allow 8 touchdown passes in 2013. Peterson gave up seven of those.
- If Nick Sirianni doesn’t call plays, can’t pick a competent DC, and doesn’t seem to be cultivating good chemistry… what does he do here?
- Fresh off his devastating Achilles injury, Brandon Brooks is PFF’s highest-rated guard through four games. Unreal. #Eagles
- I nominate Jason Kelce as the most underrated Philadelphia Eagle... ever? He’s started 89 consecutive regular season games. Literally the only NFL player to play every game and be named First-Team AP All-Pro each of the last 3 years. He’s won a Super Bowl. What more do we want?
- Carson Wentz is PFF’s highest-rated QB so far in 2019. #Eagles
- #Eagles Isaac Seumalo tonight had one of the worst single game grades by any player at any position in PFF history. He allowed two sacks, six QB hurries, committed three penalties, and graded equally poor as a run blocker and pass blocker.
- Newly-extended OT Jordan Mailata was PFF's No. 3 highest-graded pass blocker in Week 1. He's the real deal.
