Week Two Stats of the Week

Stat of the week No. 1: Matt Schaub and Donovan McNabb combined for 923 passing yards, the second-most all-time by opposing QBs in a single game.  Andre Johnson became the second fastest to reach 600 receptions in NFL history (Johnson – 104 games, Marvin Harrison – 102 games).  The Redskins finished with 17 rushes for 18 yards, the second lowest total ever recorded by a team in Mike Shanahan’s 246 games as a head coach.

Stat of the week No. 2: Randy Moss recorded his 150th career TD becoming the fourth player in NFL history to reach that number (Jerry Rice, Emmitt Smith and LaDanian Tomlinson).  It was also Moss’ 48th receiving TD in 50 games with the Patriots, the most receiving touchdowns by a player in his first 50 games with a new team in NFL history.

Stat of the week No. 3: Antonio Brown’s 89-kickoff return TD was the first kick return TD by the Steelers on an opening kickoff since Lynn Chandnois on Nov. 30, 1952.

Stat of the week No. 4: Jahvid Best became the first rookie in NFL history with at least 75 rushing yards, 150 receiving yards and three touchdowns in one game.

Stat of the week No. 5: Favre has 37 career games with at least three interceptions, the most since the merger in 1970.
