In case you didn't catch

you need to add NFL Record: Moss - 1st WR with 3 17 TD seasons

Does Patriots.com have it up on their game notes? It's a record true, but a little on the conjured up side - not straight-and-clear like most touchdowns in a game.

Found one that you missed.

Week 6 Dallas

Brady ties NFL record for most wins 76 in first 100 games as a starter.
(with Roger Staubach)

 

[PantsB]

Ghost is 1 PAT away from tying the season record for made PAT and 5 from the record for attempted PATs If he does not miss the rest of the year, he'll have the Most (Kicking) Points After Touchdown, No Misses, Season. All of these are legit records. He is 31 points away from the most non-touchdown points in a season.

Also Brady broke the NFL record for 3-TD games in a season according to ESPN.

 

[ctpatsfan77]

NFL Record: Moss 4 touchdown catches before half, tied for most (1983 Green STL, 1973 Warfield MIA, 1973 Jackson LAR, 1945 Hutson GB)

Franchise Record: Moss 4 touchdown catches, most in single game (Coates 3, 1995)

And it therefore follows that Moss also holds the franchise record for TD catches in a half.

Just need to know who held it before...

Thread that was posted earlier today with a great link to reference for this thread.

This may not be top-tier type record, and I don't have a ready link to verify. This was a stat flashed on MNF last night:

19 Most TDs, single season, QB to WR; Brady to Moss, 2007

Previous record was 18.

1987: Montana to Rice (Rice's 22 year, but Young played in 8 games and threw 10(?) TDs, evidently 4 to Rice)
1994: Favre to St. Sharpe

 

[Disco Volante]

Yeah saw that too, forgot Rice didn't get all 22 from Montana.

This means (With still 3 games to go) Brady to Moss is the most successful QB/WR connection in a single season of all-time.

If Jerry Rice set that record in a strike shortened season in which only 12 games were played, that means Montana would have only played 4 games if Young played 8. That means Montana would have to have thrown Rice 18 TDs in 4 games. That can't be right. Even if Young threw all 10 TDs to Rice, then Montana would have still thrown Rice 12 TDs in 4 games. Thats still a ridiculous amount. This can't be right.

Actually, I think it just means that Young was a competent backup, not a full-time starter--kind of like what the Pats could use right now.

Young threw 10 TDs in only 69 ATT !

Which, in this running-up-the-score sensitive season, is kind of funny. If Young, the back-up, was in for so many games, why was he launching off for TDs? Sportscaster Young (today), any answers?

One record that's been established:

NFL Record: Most Points After Touchdown, Season: Stephen Gostkowski, 67 [beating Uwe von Schamann's 66] :rocker:

There's a bunch more too, like catches on season (Welker), most wins, etc.

I won't do point differential now, since it's not set in stone.

 

[Disco Volante]

Yup. Welker tied Troy Brown's 101 reception franchise mark.

Also as far as NFL winning records...

Most consecutive games won in a season (15)
Consecutive regular season wins (18) (Tied with '03/'04 Pats)
Most games won in a season (15) (Tied with 4 others)

Here's what I'll be looking for in the Giants finale:

16 and 0 (duh)
2 Brady touchdowns to break Manning's record
2 Moss touchdowns to break Rice's record
1 (Troy?) touchdown to make 22 different players and break record
19th consecutive win to break what we thought was the unbreakable
6 points to break 1998 Vikings scoring record

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

On EEI this morning they mentioned that this was the 1st time the Patriots ever swept their division.

Mike Reiss: "Mike Vrabel -- Outside linebacker finishes with two sacks, to up his season total to 11.5, the highest total by a Patriot since Andre Tippett had 12.5 in 1987."

I'll be looking for Tippett's record to be tied or hopefully broken!
