... First time since **1959** that there's
only 1 winless team after 3 weeks, this
year the Raiders are the only winless
team in the NFL after 3 weeks.

Bills can't win one-score games. Since
the beginning of last season, the Bills
are 0-7 in one score games. The only
other team that's gone winless in one-
score games over that span is the Tex-
ans, who are 0-6-1.

2nd-longest straight quarters with at
least 1 TD in NFL history, 18 straight
quarters by the Lions. The longest
streak, 19 straight quarters by the
Packers, was set way back in **1942**.

Trevor Lawrence, a clone of Peyton
Manning? Trevor Lawrence lost the
first 9 road games of his career before
finally winning in his 10th, exactly how
Peyton Manning's career started.

Even crazier is that both players picked
up their first road win in a Week 3 game
against the Chargers.

Jaguars are just the 2nd team in the Super
Bowl era (I presume they're referring to sea-
sons starting in 1966) to go into consecu-
tive games as an underdog AND win both
those games by 24 points or more.

QB Lamar Jackson is the 1st player in the
Super Bowl era to finish a game with at
least 3 touchdown passes and 100 rush-
ing yards in consecutive games. The art-
icle implies that a player did that prior to
1966, but they don't say who did that.
