With 421 yards receiving in his first two starts, Miles Austin already has more yards than any other NFL player over his first three starts. Austin can extend his record total today as he looks to join Stacey Bailey (Atlanta, 1983) as the only players to post 100 yards or more in each of his first three starts.
Here's the breakdown on players with the most receiving yards in their first three starts:

Eagles And Cowboys On Collision Course
Before the start of the 2009 season, most NFL observers without a specific rooting interest would have told you that in the NFC East, the favorites had to be the New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles, with the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Redskins capable of competing for the division only if everything went right.
