2020 NFL Records & Milestones FOR USE AS DESIRED 1/8/21 http://twitter.com/NFL345 RECORDS & MILESTONES The highest scoring season in league history, terrific turnarounds, consistent teams excelling again, records falling and young players making their mark. The 2020 season had it all. Competitiveness was a constant theme throughout the regular season as 70 percent of games (179 of 256) were within one score (eight points) in the fourth quarter, the second-most such games in a single season in NFL history. Additionally, 43 games were won by a team that trailed by at least 10 points, tied for the most in a single season in NFL history. Week 17 came down to the wire, as seven playoff spots and two divisions titles – the AFC South and NFC East – were decided on the final day of the season. Sunday’s excitement was due in part to having 16 divisional games played on the season’s final day, a tradition instituted in 2010. Seven of the 14 playoff teams are new to the postseason in 2019: CHICAGO, CLEVELAND, INDIANAPOLIS, LOS ANGELES RAMS, PITTSBURGH, TAMPA BAY and WASHINGTON. Since 1990 – a streak of 31 consecutive seasons – at least four teams have qualified for the playoffs in every season that were not in the postseason the year before. Both the Pittsburgh Steelers (AFC North) and Washington Football Team (NFC East) won their division after missing the postseason in 2019 and at least two teams have won their divisions the season after missing the playoffs in 17 of the past 18 years. Washington completed the “worst-to-first” turnaround, winning the NFC East the season after finishing in last place in the division. At least one team has won its division the season after finishing in or tied for last place in 16 of the past 18 seasons. Teams to win their divisions a season after missing the playoffs since 2003: SEASON DIVISION WINNERS THAT MISSED THE PLAYOFFS THE PREVIOUS SEASON 2020 Pittsburgh, Washington* 2019 Green Bay, San Francisco 2018 Baltimore, Chicago*, Dallas, Houston* 2017 Jacksonville*, L.A.

Teams combined to score 12,692 total points and 1,473 total touchdowns, both the most in a single season in NFL history. There was an average of 49.6 points scored per game (both teams combined), the most in a single season since 1970.

OFFENSE RULES THE FIRST: The 2020 NFL Draft featured 18 offensive players selected in the first round, tied for the fourth-most in the common draft era, trailing only the 1968, 2004 and 2009 NFL Drafts (19). HEISMANS GO FIRST: The Cincinnati Bengals selected Heisman-winning quarterback JOE BURROW with the first-overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. Along with the first-overall selections of KYLER MURRAY (Arizona, 2019) and BAKER MAYFIELD (Cleveland, 2018), it marks the first time in the common draft era that a Heisman winner was chosen with the No. 1 pick in three consecutive NFL Drafts. With his selection at No. 1, Burrow joins CAM NEWTON (Carolina, 2011) as the only quarterbacks to win the Heisman Trophy, National Championship and be selected with the first-overall pick in the same calendar year in the common draft era. BUCKEYES AT THE TOP: Washington selected Ohio State defensive end CHASE YOUNG with the second-overall pick while Detroit picked Ohio State defensive back JEFF OKUDAH third-overall in the 2020 NFL Draft. Along with the selections of DENZEL WARD (Cleveland, No. 4 overall in 2018) and NICK BOSA (San Francisco, No. 2 in 2019), Ohio State becomes the first school to have a defensive player selected in the top-five in three consecutive Drafts in the common draft era.

  • Washington Head Coach Ron Rivera Postgame Quotes – December 13, 2020 San Francisco 49Ers Vs
    Washington Head Coach Ron Rivera Postgame Quotes – December 13, 2020 San Francisco 49ers vs. Washington Football Team Do you have any updates on QB Alex Smith? “Yes, what happened was Alex developed some tightness and muscle soreness as he was pushing off that right leg. As we ended the half, they took him in to get x-rays. The x-rays were fine. There was no issue there, but he had the soreness and it was tight. So we decided not to have him go back out there in the second half. We had them there in case of emergency, he stayed on the sideline, stayed loose and tried to loosen it up, but it just stayed tight. He couldn't get it loose. In an abundance of caution, we went with [QB] Dwayne [Haskins Jr.] in the second half.” What can you say about your defense and the performance they had in this game today? “It was pretty exciting. They did a lot of good things. They really stepped up and helped out. I know there's some issues that [Defensive Coordinator] Jack [Del Rio] is not happy with, but Jack's expecting an awful lot from those guys as we all are and those guys rose to the occasion.” Over the last few weeks you’ve talked about how DE Chase Young was staying patient when he was being double-teamed and triple teamed when he was held sackless. For him to have the performance he had after you’ve told him to not get frustrated and to wait for that moment.

  • Super Wild Card Weekend Kicks Off Saturday
    FOR USE AS DESIRED 1/5/21 SUPER WILD CARD WEEKEND KICKS OFF SATURDAY The NFL’s playoff table is ready. Get ready for a six-course meal. The addition of a third Wild Card team in each conference this season and the subsequent expansion of the playoffs has resulted in a Super Wild Card Weekend of NFL action. For the first time ever, there will be three games on Saturday, January 9, and three games on Sunday, January 10, to be played at 1:05 p.m., 4:40 p.m., and 8:15 p.m. ET on each day. The postseason kicks off Saturday on the heels of the highest-scoring regular season in NFL history, packed with more points (12,692) and touchdowns (1,473) than any of the league’s previous 100 years. All told, 179 of 256 games – 70 percent – were within one score (eight points) in the fourth quarter, more games than all but one season in league annals (184 in 2016). And no lead was safe, as winning teams combined to erase deficits of 10-or-more points in 43 games, tying a single-season league record. Steady, dangerous teams led by consistent veterans, young and on-the-rise clubs guided by sensational newcomers, they all have seats at the table.

The dour development from Sunday's 34-13 victory over the HAWKS VS. EAGLES 49ers in San Francisco was injuries to middle linebacker Lofa Tatupu and defensive end Patrick Kerney. But coach Mike WHEN/WHERE: Sunday, 1:15 p.m., Holmgren was optimistic Monday that each of the Pro Bowl Qwest Field players from a year ago will be available for this week's game against the Philadelphia Eagles at Qwest Field. TV/RADIO: KCPQ/13; KIRO-AM/710 Tatupu strained his groin, while Kerney aggravated his left shoulder -- the same one that needed surgery during the offseason to repair a torn labrum. Neither is expected to practice much this week, but each should be able to play. On Tatupu, Holmgren said, "I believe he'll be able to play in the game Sunday." On Kerney, he offered, "He is much stronger right now than he was yesterday. So our hope is, if he can regain his strength, which is the biggest thing, then we should have him as well. "It scared him. Because it was the shoulder that he had operated on and he did so much rehab on." The Seahawks pushed their record to 2-5 and climbed into a tie for second place in the NFC West with their win over the discombobulated 49ers.
