Sky Sports Cricket statistician – and big Buffalo Bills fan – Benedict Bermange dives into Week Five of the 2022 season to pick out the best stats the NFL has to offer, including Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce’s star showing on Monday night, and an 11th career win for Tom Brady over the Atlanta Falcons…

The New York Giants won their third game out of three in London, joining the Minnesota Vikings – who themselves won the week before – as the only two NFL teams with a 3-0 record in England’s capital.

The Giants’ 27-22 win over the Packers at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium was the fifth NFL game out of six played there to be decided by a single score. The only one that wasn’t was the Carolina Panthers’ 37-26 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week Six of the 2019 season.

The game between the Los Angeles Chargers and the Browns was notable in that it was just the third game in the Super Bowl era in which both teams had at least 200 yards passing and 200 yards rushing. The only other two were the Miami Dolphins-Bills game in Week 16 of the 2016 season and the Panthers-San Francisco 49ers game in Week 14 of the 1998 season.

The Detroit Lions lost 29-0 to the New England Patriots and so became only the fifth team in NFL history to be shut out after scoring at least 45 points in their previous game in the same season. The last team to suffer such a fate was the Giants who beat the New Orleans Saints 52-27 in Week 14 of the 2012 season before losing 34-0 to the Atlanta Falcons the following week. The Lions were 0-6 on fourth down against the Patriots – the most 4th down attempts without a conversion by any team in a game since at least 1991.

On Monday night, Travis Kelce caught touchdown passes of one, four, eight and one yards from Patrick Mahomes to become the first player in NFL history to have four TDs of fewer than 10 yards in the same game. His total of 25 receiving yards in the game is also by far the fewest of any player catching that many touchdown passes. The previous record of 93 yards was set by Marvin Jones of the Lions against the Vikings in 2019.
