Sky Sports Cricket statistician – and big Buffalo Bills fan – Benedict Bermange dives into the 2024 NFL season to pick out the best stats from each week…

Patrick Mahomes led the Kansas City Chiefs to another one-possession victory – this time over the Carolina Panthers to move to 9-0 in the regular season against the NFC South over the course of his career. Coincidentally Jared Goff is also currently 9-0 against the NFC South.

Mahomes’ only career loss to an NFC South team was to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Super Bowl LV.

The Chicago Bears lost to the Minnesota Vikings in overtime, but Caleb Williams set a franchise rookie record with his 10th touchdown pass, surpassing the previous marks set by Jim McMahon in 1982 and Kyle Orton in 2005. Williams ended his streak of 165 passes without either a touchdown or interception, which was the longest by anyone in NFL history when he connected with DJ Moore for a touchdown in the fourth quarter.

Saquon Barkley’s best plays from his career-high 302-yard, 2-touchdown game against the Los Angeles Rams

The Houston Texans managed to lose to the Tennessee Titans despite having eight sacks, three takeaways and a pick-six. The last team to post those numbers and end up losing was the Cleveland Browns in a defeat to the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 14 of the 2001 season. He may have missed a 28-yarder, but Ka’imi Fairbairn successfully converted his 12th field goal from at least 50 yards this season, setting a new NFL record.

The Detroit Lions’ victory over the Indianapolis Colts was their ninth in a row, their longest winning streak in a season since they won 10 in a row in 1934. They have now scored a rushing touchdown in 25 straight games, extending their own NFL record.
