Stats of the Week - Week 4

Stat of the week No. 2: The Titans became the 4th team since 1975 to start a season at least 0-4 after being a number one seed the previous season. The other three teams are the 2002 Rams, 1999 Broncos and 1987 Giants. None of the previous three teams finished better than 7-9.

Stat of the week No. 3: Matt Cassel, who recently signed one of the richest contracts in football history, averaged 2.4 yards per pass attempt on 32 throws.

Stat of the week No. 5: The Colts won their 13th straight regular season game, the longest current streak in the NFL, and also won their eighth straight home game.

Bonus Stat of the week: Aaron Rodgers has been sacked 20 times through four games. He is on pace to be sacked 80 times this season, which would break the NFL record of 76 set back in 2002 by David Carr and the Houston Texans.
