    They're both great.

        Agreed. Bottom line is that they are both pretty damned good. All the years we couldn't get one stud-ish receiver here, and now we have two......perhaps three.

          Crazy numbers for Maclin

          Even though Jeremy Maclin is only two years and two games into his NFL career, he’s already putting up numbers that are up there with any other receiver in Eagles history.

          Maclin, who had 159 yards against the Falcons last year and 171 on Sunday, became the third Eagle with two career receiving games of 150 or more yards against the same team.

          Harold Jackson did it vs. the Giants (194 in 1970 and 152 in 1972) and Tommy McDonald vs. the Cards (187 in 1961 and 162 in 1962).

          Maclin already has as many career games with 150 or more yards as Mike Quick, generally regarded as the greatest receiver in modern Eagles history.

          With two TD catches Sunday, Maclin became only the sixth player in NFL history with five or more multiple-TD-catch games before his 24th birthday. Only Randy Moss (nine), Bobby Hayes (six) and John Jefferson (six) had more games with more than one TD catch than Maclin before their 24th birthday. Gary Collins and Hall of Famer Mike Ditka, who both played in the 1960s, also had five.

          After 35 NFL games (including the playoffs), Maclin has 149 catches for 2,138 yards and 17 touchdowns. After 35 games, Jackson had 139 catches for 2,300 yards and 13 touchdowns.

          Maclin needs 61 catches the rest of the season to break Keith Jackson’s franchise record of 209 receptions in a player’s first three NFL seasons. He needs only 40 to break Jackson’s mark for most by a wide receiver.

          In Eagles history, 18 players have had 150 yards in a game, and seven of them have done it while Reid was the coach – DeSean Jackson and Terrell Owens three times, Maclin twice and Jason Avant, Hank Baskett, Kevin Curtis and Brian Westbrook once each.

          Under the Eagles’ four previous coaches – Ray Rhodes, Rich Kotite, Buddy Ryan and Dick Vermeil – only five players had 150-yard games (Fred Barnett, Calvin Williams, Cris Carter, Quick, Harold Carmichael).

            Maclin Vs Jackson After 35 Games
            Ruben Frank tweeted out a fascinating stat yesterday about the production of Jeremy Maclin vs DeSean Jackson after their first 35 games.

            Jeremy Maclin - 149 catches, 2,138 yards, 17 touchdowns.
            DeSean Jackson - 139 catches, 2,300 yards, 13 touchdowns.

            Now, my first reaction is... great! These are two young starters on this team and we're lucky to have them both. However, we have had this ongoing debate on here about which of these two is the better WR.

            Honestly, I would not have guessed that Maclin has outproduced Jackson almost across the board over his first 35 games.

            Jackson has been to two pro bowls, he's a bigger star, defenses seem to pay him more attention... and yet it would appear that Maclin has actually done more damage. Maclin has no doubt benefited by some favorable coverages rolled Jackson's way, but then again he had one of the best games of his career last year against Atlanta after Jackson was out of the game. So he's shown that he's effective either way.

            So given the choice, who ya got?

              Maclin would be a star anywhere, but I think he's as great as he is because teams have to pay so much attention to Jackson.

                He plays just as good without Jackson as he does with him.

                  Jackson appears to be more valuable becasue he has scored in a more dramatic fashion. Maclin is teh type of receiver that you win with on a long term basis. Djax is someone that will burn out quicker. Still think theya re tremendous, but maclin is more consistent and will have a longer, if not more productive, career.

                    Love them both but personally I'm a Maclin fan first.
