[Ian Hartitz @Ihartitz]

The NFC East is the only division in football to have all four teams with a negative point differential

[Ian Hartitz @Ihartitz]

Top-five wide receivers in PPR points in Weeks 5-6

[Arif Hasan, but NFL 🏈 @ArifHasanNFL]

Yards per game is a shitty stat and doesn't tell you much (you may be throwing more often because you're behind) so ideally you'd want yards per attempt or adjusted net yards per attempt and

Oh!

[RJ Ochoa @rjochoa]

Javonte Williams is the third player (fourth instance) in Dallas Cowboys franchise history to have at least 7 rushing touchdowns through the first 6 games of a season.

Quite the disparity in attempts and yards from Emmitt Smith's two instances.

Worth noting these were the first 6 games of Calvin Hill's season specifically in 1971, not the team's.

[JaguarGator9 @JaguarGator9NFL]

The 49ers didn’t play a single game from weeks 1-13 in the same time slot as the week before

They made it to the Super Bowl

[Sal Capaccio 🏈 @SalSports]

Tre'Davious White has played 98 games in a Bills uniform. He has 19 career INT's, which ranks 15th on their al-time list. Here is the team's top 20, via @pfref

[Davis Mattek @DavisMattek]

Kenneth Walker and Jahmyr Gibbs are currently having top 10 *all time* fantasy points per game seasons

[RJ Ochoa @rjochoa]

The 2026 Dallas Cowboys are the 16th team in franchise history to have 2 or fewer wins through the first 6 games of a season.

None of the previous 15 made the playoffs.

[Alex Barth @RealAlexBarth]

Sixth time in Patriots history a quarterback has had 3+ passing touchdowns in 3+ consecutive games, and the first since 2017 (via @pfref).

Oh, and 2007 Tom Brady was insane.

[RJ Ochoa @rjochoa]

The Dallas Cowboys have played the Green Bay Packers 14 times in the last 20 years, playoffs included.

They have won just 3 of those games.

The last one was a decade ago.

[Davis Mattek @DavisMattek]

Omarion Hampton is scoring fewer PPR points than Clyde Edwards Helaire in year 2

1st round RBs in year 2 with less than 58 rush yards per game

[Tom Brady Facts @TBFacts26]

13 years ago today, Brady drives 70 yards with 1:13 left and no timeouts to beat the Saints 30-27

[ShamusTalksSports @ShamusTalkSport]

Last night on Monday Night Football, Puka Nacua became just the 9th player in NFL history to record 17 or more receptions in a game, breaking the MNF record for most catches in a game.

1.) Puka Nacua (17) (October 12, 2026)
T-2.) Ja’Marr Chase (14) (December 9, 2024)
T-2.) Travis Kelce (14) (November 4, 2024)
T-2.) Cooper Kupp (14) (October 3, 2022)
T-2.) Herman Moore (14) (December 4, 1995)
T-2.) Jerry Rice (14) (December 18, 1995)

Interestingly, two players recorded 17+ receptions within eight days of each other. Before 2026, no two players had ever recorded 17+ catches in the same calendar year, let alone the same month.

• Tom Fears (18) — December 3, 1950
• Clark Gaines (17) — September 21, 1980
• Terrell Owens (20) — December 17, 2000
• Brandon Marshall (18) — September 14, 2008
• Brandon Marshall (21) — December 13, 2009
• Jason Witten (18) — October 28, 2012
• Antonio Brown (17) — November 8, 2015
• Keenan Allen (18) — September 24, 2023
• CeeDee Lamb (17) — October 4, 2026
• Puka Nacua (17) — October 12, 2026

[RJ Ochoa @rjochoa]

2026 is the 24th time that a Dallas Cowboys team has started off a season 2-3 or worse.

There are only 2 playoff appearances, both as NFC East winners, in the previous 23 instances.

(via @Stathead, @pfref)

[Alex Barth @RealAlexBarth]

Patriots quarterbacks in a single game with at least...

300 passing yards
4 passing TDs
0 INTs
75% completions
1 rushing TD

Drake Maye. End of list.

There was one such game with 3 TDs. Tom Brady (and Mike Vrabel) had a DAY against Washington in 2007 (via @pfref)

[Zach Kruse @zachkruse2]

Jordan Love joins the immortals of Packers QBs.

130 or better passer rating games against the Bears.

[Bengal @BengalYouTube]

Well… we’re on the 5 year range
How did this take age?

[Jim Miloch @podoffame]

Mike Ditka averaged 19.2 yards per catch in 1961.

That is still the 2nd highest single season average by a tight end in NFL history (min. 50 catches).

[Jim Miloch @podoffame]

Mike Ditka held the TE rookie record for receiving yards until just a few years ago, when Brock Bowers broke it by 118 yards.

It took the NFL moving to a 17-game season and a tight end doubling Ditka's reception total to break the record.

[Jim Miloch @podoffame]

There is a big difference between 8th and 25th on the all-time rushing yard list.

And when Bettis retired in 2005, he ranked 5th.
