| WHAT TO LOOK FOR – WEEK 14
BROWN IN THE BOOKS: Pittsburgh wide receiver ANTONIO BROWN ties for the NFL lead with 88 receptions this season and has totaled 463 catches since 2013. With seven catches at Buffalo on Sunday, Brown would have the most receptions by a player over any four-year span in NFL history, passing Pro Football Hall of Famer MARVIN HARRISON (469 catches from 1999-2002). The players with the most receptions over any four-year span in NFL history:
Brown leads the NFL with 11 touchdown receptions and ranks fourth in the league with 1,052 receiving yards. With 148 receiving yards against the Bills, Brown would become the fifth player in NFL history to record four consecutive seasons with at least 1,200 receiving yards and eight touchdown catches. The players with the most consecutive seasons with at least 1,200 receiving yards and eight touchdown catches:
— NFL — MILESTONE FOR MILLER: Denver linebacker VON MILLER leads the NFL with 12.5 sacks this season and has 72.5 career sacks in his first six seasons in the league. With 2.5 sacks at Tennessee on Sunday, Miller would tie Pro Football Hall of Famer BRUCE SMITH as the third-fastest player to reach 75 career sacks, doing so in his 85th career game. The players to reach 75 career sacks in the fewest games since individual sacks became an official statistic in 1982:
— NFL — GOOD COMPANY: Since entering the NFL in 2015, Arizona running back DAVID JOHNSON leads the league with 28 total touchdowns, including 19 rushing touchdowns, eight receiving scores and a kickoff-return TD. With a rushing touchdown at Miami on Sunday, Johnson would join Pro Football Hall of Famer GALE SAYERS as the only players in NFL history with 20+ rushing touchdowns, 5+ receiving touchdowns and a kickoff-return touchdown in their first two seasons.
Johnson has recorded at least 100 scrimmage yards in each of the Cardinals’ 12 games this season. With 100 scrimmage yards on Sunday, he would tie EDGERRIN JAMES (13 in 2005) for the longest streak of consecutive games with 100 scrimmage yards to begin a season in NFL history. The most consecutive games with at least 100 scrimmage yards to start a season:
— NFL — LUXURY CARR: Oakland quarterback DEREK CARR passed for two touchdowns in the Raiders’ 38-24 victory against Buffalo in Week 13. Carr has 77 touchdown passes in his first three seasons and with three touchdowns at Kansas City on Thursday Night Football, Carr would become the fifth player in NFL history with 80 touchdown passes in his first three seasons. The players with the most touchdown passes in their first three seasons:
— NFL — RISING ROOKIES: Dallas quarterback DAK PRESCOTT has 10 games with a passer rating of 100 or higher this season, the most by a rookie quarterback in NFL history. With a 100+ passer rating at the New York Giants on Sunday Night Football, Prescott would become the eighth different quarterback in NFL history to have 11 or more games with a 100+ rating in a single season. The quarterbacks with a 100+ rating in 11 or more games in a single season:
Prescott tops NFL rookies with 2,974 passing yards and 19 touchdown passes, while Cowboys rookie running back EZEKIEL ELLIOTT leads the league with 1,285 rushing yards and ranks second with 12 rushing touchdowns. With a passing touchdown from Prescott on Sunday night, the Cowboys would become the third team in NFL history to have a rookie pass for 20 touchdowns and a rookie rush for 10 touchdowns in the same season.
