The NFL has been wild so far this season.

How wild? Well, check this out:

Through five weeks, there were 19 games that weren’t decided until the final minute of regulation or until overtime. That is the most ever in league history during the first five weeks of the season. This tweet was sent before Monday night’s overtime game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Indianapolis Colts.

There have been 18 games with a game-winning score in the final minute of regulation or in overtime this season, the most such games through the first five weeks all-time.
