Stat of the week No. 1: Drew Brees threw for more than 300 yards and five touchdowns without an interception for the third time in his career, joining Tom Brady as the only players since 1970 to accomplish the feat at least three times (Brady has done it four times).
Stat of the week No. 2: Arian Foster became just the fourth player since the merger to run for 100 yards, have 100 receiving yards and score three touchdowns in the same game (2007- Brian Westbrook, 2002 – Priest Holmes, 1973 – Larry Brown).
Stat of the week No. 3: Denver Broncos are the first team since 1970 to come-from-behind to win after trailing by 15 or more points with three minutes remaining in a game.
Stat of the week No. 4: Since Art Monk retired as the NFL’s leader in receptions after the 1995 season, 11 players have passed him, including Derrick Mason this past Sunday.
Stat of the week No. 5: Cam Newton has seven rushing touchdowns, which is two more than Chris Johnson, Maurice Jones-Drew, LaDainian Tomlinson and DeAngelo Williams combined.
Bonus Stat of the Week: In four career starts, Tim Tebow has two fourth-quarter comebacks from at least 13 points down. The same number John Elway had in 231 career starts.
