The Eagles are the only NFL team in the Super Bowl era to have a game with:
under 50 offensive plays
under 250 total yards
10+ penalties
3+ giveaways
0 takeaways
0 sacks
The 2026 postseason is the first time in MLB history that 3 teams made the playoffs despite having a sub-.400 winning percentage at the end of April - the Astros were 12-20 (.375) while the Phillies and Red Sox were 12-19 (.387).
Talanoa Hufanga of the @Broncos is the only NFL player to have:
multiple picks
a 50+ yard pick-6
a sack
...in any single quarter of any single game (since sacks were first officially tracked for defenders in 1982).
The @Raiders are the second team in NFL history to start a season 3-0 with a rookie head coach and having made the No. 1 overall pick in the most recent draft.
The other was the 1959 Packers behind Vince Lombardi.
Today against the Fever, A'ja Wilson recorded 38 points while having shooting splits of 78.9/100/85.7.
No other player in WNBA or NBA history has had a playoff game with that many points and such high FG%/3PT%/FT%.
The Detroit Lions are the second team in NFL history to score 30+ points in each of their first 3 games of a season while also having a negative total point differential over those games (1994 New England Patriots).
Jonathan Taylor and Josh Allen have both rushed for multiple touchdowns in each of their first two games of the season.
The last three NFL players to have 2+ rushing TDs in their first 3 games of a season are Priest Holmes (2003), Stephen Davis (1999) and Jim Brown (1958).
In all 4 games this season, Darian Mensah of @CanesFootball has had:
85.0%+ completion percentage
3+ pass TDs
0 interceptions
The only FBS player over the last 30 years with more such games over an entire season was Indiana's Fernando Mendoza last season (6).
Jadan Baugh of @GatorsFB has rushed for 130+ yards and 2+ touchdowns in all 4 games this season.
That ties LSU's Leonard Fournette (2015) and Georgia Tech's Tony Hollings (2002) for the longest such streak to begin a season by any FBS player this century.
How good has Kenneth Walker III been for the Kansas City Chiefs? Through two weeks, Walker has forced 31 missed or broken tackles on his rushing attempts. That's more than Isiah Pacheco (13) or Kareem Hunt (27) had all of last season.
Jeremiah Smith has recorded 617 receiving yards and 7 receiving touchdowns through Ohio State's first four games, the first Power Conference player to do so through his team's first four games since Brandin Cooks in 2013.
Tarik Skubal over the last three seasons:
.717 winning percentage
655 strikeouts
95 walks
The only other pitchers in MLB history to have a .700+ winning percentage, 600+ strikeouts and fewer than 100 walks over a three-season span are Clayton Kershaw and Pedro Martinez.
The Falcons are one of five NFL teams over the last 40 seasons to score 35+ points and win by 21+ after scoring 3 or fewer points and losing by a 30+ margin in their previous game (within the same season).
Last 5 road games for Bijan Robinson:
at NYJ: 193 scrimm yds, 1 TD
at TB: 175 scrimm yds, 1 TD
at Ari: 168 scrimm yds, 1 TD
at Pit: 173 scrimm yds, 1 TD
at GB: 213 scrimm yds, 2 TD
He's the first player in NFL history with 150+ scrimmage yards and a TD in 5 straight road games.
The Guardians currently have:
no qualifying .300+ hitters
no players with 20+ HR
no players with 75+ RBI
no players with 40+ SB
No MLB team has ever finished a non-shortened season without having any players accomplish any of those feats and yet still made the playoffs.
RBI became an official stat beginning in 1920. Even if unofficial pre-1920 RBI totals are used, no team did this in a non-shortened season prior to 1920.
The @Reds are the first team in MLB history to have a different rookie hit a leadoff HR in back-to-back games (Juan Brito yesterday, Carlos Jorge today).
The Athletics lead the AL in runs per game at home (4.99) and have the AL’s worst home record (31-46) in 2026.
They would be the first team in American League history to lead the league in runs scored per game at home while finishing with the league’s worst home record.
The last team to finish first in either the AL or NL in runs scored per game at home to also have sole possession of the worst home record in that same league was the 1933 Philadelphia Phillies.
