Each day for the next two weeks, I'll add an #NFL fun fact or stat to this 🧵

🏈 Fun Fact #1: Teams favored by >7 points are 23-1 outright thru Week 8 (only loss is Cincy losing to Mike White & the @nyjets last week). Teams favored by <7 points are only 43-44 (a losing record!)

🏈 Fun Fact #2: Read this one carefully...

The 2021 Seahawks have allowed just the 22nd most points per game of any team in the NFL this season, even though they have allowed the 22nd most yards per game of any team in NFL HISTORY!!!

🏈 Fun Fact #3: There were three 33-22 games in October 2021. There were three 33-22 games in NFL history before that

🏈 Fun Fact #4: Derrick Henry has 1,222 more yards than any other rusher since the start of 2019, larger than the difference as between #2 and #12

The #Titans play without Henry tonight, after he just had the most carries in the first 8 games of a season in #NFL history

🏈 Fun Fact #5: Justin Tucker has made 52 consecutive fourth quarter field goals

🏈 Fun Fact #6: With the @Broncos win on Sunday, Teddy Bridgewater is now 39-17-1 career against the spread, which is leaps and bounds ahead of every other active starting QB in the #NFL

🏈 Fun Fact #7: Including Week 7 of this season, Derek Carr has two games in his career with at least 30 attempts and a 90% completion percentage. Every other player in #NFL history has combined for one such game

🏈 Fun Fact #8: @YounghoeKoo has the 3rd highest field goal percentage in #NFL history. Over the past two seasons, he's made a higher percentage of his field goals (51/54) than extra points (50/53)!
