At the end, Carson Wentz did what all NFL starting quarterbacks do, finding his counterpart at midfield for a handshake, a half-hug, and a brief exchange of best wishes. Wentz didn't spend more than a few seconds with Robert Griffin III after the Eagles' 29-10 victory over the Browns. But the moment, that framing of a young quarterback on the ascendance and one who used to be, was enough to serve as a reminder to maintain perspective during what promises to be a wild week around here.
The whole town will be tipsy over Wentz's debut: his 22 completions in 37 attempts, his 278 yards, his two lovely touchdown passes, his zero turnovers, his 101 quarterback rating, his composure, his knowledge of the offense, the sense he created that somehow he had been here and done this before.
