1: The number of backs who have run for 100 yards in each of the last three games. That man is Adrian Peterson.

1: The number of tight ends with two catches of at least 40 yards in the same game in Week 10. That man is Brent Celek who caught four passes for 134 yards. Those 134 yards represent 65 percent of the season-long yardage mark of Celek.

2: The number of wideouts who have at least five receptions and 50 yards each game this season. They are DeAndre Hopkins and… Demaryius Thomas.

3: Number of Bears players to have 100 receiving yards, a TD reception and a TD run in the same game: Gale Sayers, Walter Payton and Jeremy Langford.

4: The rushing scores in the first half of Devonta Freeman, Chris Ivory, Joseph Randle, DeAngelo Williams and Ronnie Hillman, the most in football. Freeman is the only player with five rushing scores in the second half of games.

4: The league-leading touchdown reception total in the fourth quarter this season by Gary Barnidge and DeAndre Hopkins.

6: The league-leading reception total within 10 yards of the goal line held by Eric Decker, Larry Fitzgerald, Julio Jones and Jordan Reed.

7: Games in a row in which Allen Hurns has scored. That’s tied for the fifth-longest streak in the NFL the last 15 years.

10: The NFL leader total of catches inside an opponent’s 20-yard line by Julian Edelman and Tyler Eifert.

27: Receptions the last two games for Antonio Brown. That’s two off the NFL record in two games (Clark Gaines for the Jets in 1980).  

29: The number of times that Adrian Peterson has been stuffed on runs this season, the most in football. Two others have 22 stuffs (Justin Forsett and LeSean McCoy) while one more has 21 (T.J. Yeldon).

33: Sacks taken by Russell Wilson, the worst mark in football. Alex Smith is second with 30 sacks received.

42.9: Percentage of overall throws for Carson Palmer on first down, the most in football. That’s 132 of 308 pass attempts by the way. Palmer also leads the NFL with a 7.5 touchdown percentage meaning 7.5 percent of his 308 passes have gone for scores (23).

52: The league-leading total for DeAndre Hopkins in passes thrown at a receiver that aren’t turned into receptions. Mike Evans and Allen Robinson are second with 46.

88.9: The percent of nine touchdowns scored this season, eight in total, that have been scored in the red zone by Tyler Eifert. The Bengals tight end dropped three balls in Week 10.

115.2: The QB Rating of Drew Brees at home, the best in football, and two-tenths ahead of Tom Brady.

133.8: The NFL leading QB Rating of Marcus Mariota on the road this season.

379: The NFL record of passing yards thrown for by Ben Roethlisberger coming off the bench in Week 10.  Big Ben threw for 218 yards and two scores in the second quarter.

Davante Adams was the recipient of 21 targets in Week 10. He caught 10 of those passes for 79 yards. Alltogether, Packers wide receivers caught 15 of 33 passes for 132 yards in Week 10 while dropping four balls. Back to Adams. Since 1960, no player who has seen 21 targets has had fewer than the 79 yards Adams posted.

Danny Amendola takes over for the injured Julian Edelman this week. No wideout in football has a better percentage of conversion on passes thrown his way than Amendola who has caught 40-of-48 passes for an 83.3 conversion rate. Mark Ingram leads football having caught 40-of-46 (87.0 percent).

Benjamin Watson has five more catches than Jimmy Graham (46 to 41). Delanie Walker has 17 more yards than Jimmy Graham (508 to 491). Owen Daniels has one more score than Jimmy Graham (three to two). Through 10 weeks of the NFL season Jimmy Graham, in a PPR setup, currently ranks 13 in points per game.

Joique Bell and Ameer Abdullah produced 18 yards on 17 carries in Week 10 for the Lions.

Tom Brady leads football with a 131.5 QB Rating in two wideout sets. He also leads football with a 126.3 mark in three wideout sets. He falls to fifth in four wideout sets (103.3). The leader in four-wideout sets is the man Brady played last week, Eli Manning (118.9). Brady also has 24 touchdown passes. That’s one more than Matt Ryan (12) and Sam Bradford (11) – combined. Speaking of Ryan, his 12 scores in nine games have him on pace for a mere 21 passing scores. At this point Kirk Cousins (14) and Joe Flacco (13) have more.

Teddy Bridgewater threw TWO passes that were in the air for more than 10 yards in Week 10. In the five games in which he has failed to throw for 200 yards the Vikings have won. Go figure.

Antonio Brown caught 10 of his 11 targets under 20 yards and he posted 91 of his 139 Week 10 yards after the catch. Brown also leads the NFL with 12 catches of at least 25 yards, one more than Rob Gronkowski. Brown leads football with 470 receiving yards in November. Randall Cobb (179) and A.J. Green (238) are 53 yards short of that.

Martavis Bryant leads NFL wideouts, minimum 20 receptions, with an 8.7 yards after the catch mark. Up the requirement to 40 receptions and the leader at wideout becomes Amari Cooper at 6.4 YAC. If we look at the tight end spot we have two strong performers as well. Rob Gronkowski has an 8.1 YAC mark, slightly better than the 7.5 YAC of Travis Kelce.

Kirk Cousins threw for 324 yards and four scores in Week 10. Fully 80 percent of his yardage was YAC meaning only 65 yards from Cousins were actually gained on passes in the air.

Jay Cutler completed 19-of-20 passes in Week 10 that he threw for less than 10 yards. He threw for 258 yards and three scores on those plays. His pass catchers went for 209 yards after the catch. Oh yeah, that means Cutler didn’t complete a pass over 10 yards.

Julian Edelman and Dion Lewis have produced 34 percent of the Patriots yards from scrimmage this season and 39 percent of the receptions. How will the offense function without them?

Todd Gurley’s long run in Week 10 was nine yards.

DeAndre Hopkins has been targeted a league high 123 times, four more than Julio Jones and nine more than Antonio Brown. Two others have 100 targets: Odell Beckham Jr. 103 and Demaryius Thomas 103.

Allen Hurns has scored in 7-straight games. He has seven scores on the year. That’s the same total as Demaryius Thomas (one), Calvin Johnson (three) and T.Y. Hilton (three).

Marshawn Lynch ran for just 42 yards but he only carried the ball eight times. Not his fault at all. On only two of his eight carries did he get past the line of scrimmage before he was hit.

Johnny Manziel was sacked six times, only one being blamed on the o-line, in Week 10.

Marcus Mariota is struggling to throw the ball deep. He has a 15.4 accuracy rate this season on deep passes that is last in the league.

LeSean McCoy forced six missed tackles in Week 10 showing off his vicious cuts. Fifty seven of his 112 rushing yards came before first contact against the Jets.

Josh McCown has been benched for Jonny Manziel. Good. McCown leads football with six fumbles lost. Marcus Mariota is second with four.

We always hear this lame story that Lamar Miller wears down with work. Guess who leads the NFL, minimum 24 carries, in YPC between carries 11 and 20 in a game? You guessed it, Miller at 6.7 yards a tote.

Alfred Morris ran for 92 yards in Week 10, the 4th highest mark in football. That mark was nearly double that of Matt Jones by the way (56 yards).

Cam Newton completed 21 of his 25 aimed throws in Week 10.

Greg Olsen leads tight ends with 18 receptions in November. Julius Thomas has five. Speaking of Thomas, let me state his worth again. He was completely a product of Peyton Manning’s red zone prowess. Not only can Thomas not stay on the field, and when he does he does little. Julius has one score this season in five games and since being drafted in 2011 he’s appeared in 37 of 73 games (50.7 percent). Thomas has also averaged the following per game: 3.4 receptions and 38.4 yards. Over 16 games that equates to 54 catches and 614 yards.

Adrian Peterson leads the NFL with 28 runs of at least 10-yards. Devonta Freeman (22) and Doug Martin (20) are the only other backs with at least 20 such runs. AD leads the NFL with 431 rushing yards in November. Mark Ingram (211) and Darren McFadden (213) are seven yards short of that.

Ben Roethlisberger was a mess last week in some respects, even with his success. When he was blitzed his yard per attempt mark was 0.5 yards (compared to 13 YPA when not blitzed).

Philip Rivers has attempted 390 passes to lead football. His total of 269 completions also paces the league. Rivers has completed more passes than have been thrown by Russell Wilson (266).

Matt Ryan is the best full-time quarterback in the fourth quarter this season with his 73.0 percent completions percentage on 89 pass attempts.

Torrey Smith leads football with a 21.4 yards per catch mark. If we bump up the limit to 20 receptions though the leader becomes James Jones at 20.1 yards a catch.

Ryan Tannehill completed 9-fo-16 passes for 59 yards when he was blitzed in Week 10. He was also the recipient of six sacks.
