Eagles notes: Lane Johnson looks for better outcome vs. Justin Houston than when he was a rookie

In the Philadelphia Eagles loss to the Kansas City Chiefs back in 2013, Chiefs edge rusher Justin Houston wrecked the game. On the night, Houston had 7 tackles, 4.5 sacks, 3 batted passes, a forced fumble, 2 fumble recoveries, and 5 total hits on the quarterback. It was something of a "Welcome to the NFL" moment for Lane Johnson, a rookie at the time who took the brunt of Houston's abuse.

Eagles may have a dangerous deep threat in Torrey Smith, with gifs and stuff

Torrey Smith only had three passes come his way in his debut with the Philadelphia Eagles against the Washington Redskins Week 1, only one of which he caught, for a gain of 30 yards. While his production may have been quiet on TV on Sunday, he made an impact on the game film that future Eagles opponents will study. On two of Smith's targets, he was able to get open deep down the field, but Carson Wentz missed him.

Brandon Graham's dominance against the Redskins, in gif form

Obviously, in the Philadelphia Eagles' season opener against the Washington Redskins, defensive end Brandon Graham made a few huge plays. And yet, he was even better than you probably realize. Graham beat a very good right tackle in Morgan Moses all day long like a rented mule.
