The best stats from Week 10 in the NFL, including a seventh one-score win for the Minnesota Vikings this season, an unwanted record for the Chicago Bears as they again top 29 points but lose, and a blown 14-point fourth-quarter lead by the Dallas Cowboys for the first time in 196 games!

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson has reached 4,000 receiving yards in the joint-fewest games in NFL history

Sky Sports statistician – and big Buffalo Bills fan – Benedict Bermange picks out the best stats the NFL has to offer from Week 10, including another record day for Minnesota Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson and a fourth win in four for Tom Brady in Europe…

Tom Brady became the first quarterback to start a game in three different countries outside of the US – and he took his record in those games to 4-0 as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers secured their first win in an International Series game, having lost their previous three attempts. Brady’s fourth quarter interception also broke his streak of 399 straight pass attempts without throwing an interception, just three short of the NFL record.

The Minnesota Vikings won an incredible game against the Buffalo Bills, their fifth win this season after trailing in the fourth quarter, to improve their record to 7-0 in one-score games this year. The Bills’ defeat this week sent them from the top seed in the AFC to the sixth seed.

There was a wild end to the game between Buffalo Bills and Minnesota Vikings with the Bills defence holding up the Vikings offense on the goal-line, before gifting them a touchdown with a fumble and then somehow forcing overtime!

Eric Kendricks‘ fumble recovery for a touchdown to give the Vikings the lead with 41 seconds left in the fourth quarter was the first go-ahead, non-offensive touchdown scored by a trailing team in the last minute of the fourth quarter since December 1986. On that occasion, the Colts, trailing by two, beat the Falcons 28-23 on a blocked punt by Tate Randle, with the touchdown scored by Eugene Daniel with 20 seconds left. The last time the Bills blew a second-half lead of at least 17 points was in December 2005 when they saw a 23-3 lead against the Dolphins morph into a 24-23 defeat.

Justin Jefferson passed 4,000 receiving yards in the Vikings’ win, becoming the joint-fastest receiver to reach that landmark in NFL history.

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields had another excellent game on the ground, despite his team becoming the first team in NFL history to score at least 29 points in three-straight games and lose the lot! Fields added 147 yards rushing to his 178 from last week for a total of 325 across the two games, a record for a quarterback in successive games, surpassing Lamar Jackson’s 268 yards over the course of Weeks Six (152 yards) and Seven (116) of the 2019 season.
