Only reason Detroit is number 1 in points per game is that Campbell always goes for more points in the 4th qtr when already ahead by 30

They are so close offensively.

Strange that we are 16th in passing and 11th in rushing yards given up which ends up 3rd in total yards given up.
A lot of teams must be awful at qone or the other

13th in total yards given up per PFR

I've seen some crappy/wrong stats on the internet today.
Heads up to all the stat watchers out there.

Edit: favorite bad/wrong stat of the week: Sunday's game against the Cards was Puka's first multi-touchdown game. (see 12/08/24 against the Bills)

First game with two receiving TDs

And I haven't heard anyone make that distinction, not the guys in the booth, not the sideline reporter, not coach after the game, not JB in the recap show and certainly not the title to this video:
