Oh boy. Oh my. Or dear. Stats of the weird.
– Where to begin. Lets’ start with some records. Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja’Marr Chase finished Thursday night with 16 receptions. Not only did that set a Bengals record, his 16 grabs are the most of any player against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Ever. The previous record was held by RB/FB William Andrews, who hauled in 15 in a 1981 game against the Steelers.
After more than 40 years, that record has fallen.
– Not a record but matching a career mark, Joe Flacco’s three passing touchdowns tie for the most he’s ever had against the Steelers.
