Stats To Watch Out For: Steelers vs. Bears (Week 3)
The Pittsburgh Steelers travel to Chicago to take on the Bears this Sunday. Several Steelers are close to breaking franchise marks or moving up leaderboards on both the team and in the league.
Here are some of the statistics you should keep an eye on in this game.
300
Ben Roethlisberger will become the ninth quarterback in NFL history to throw for at least 300 yards in 50 regular season games if he reaches that mark this Sunday and the eighth to do so with just one team. Carson Palmer and Aaron Rodgers are also at 49 games going into their Week 1 games.
51
Antonio Brown needs one touchdown catch to tie Lynn Swann for the third-most receiving touchdowns in team history. AB currently has 50 career touchdown catches.
103
Antonio Brown is 103 receiving yards shy from surpassing John Stallworth (8,723) for the second-most in team history.
100
Le’Veon Bell’s next 100-yard rushing game will mark the 15th of his NFL career and will tie John Henry Johnson for the ?fth-most 100-yard games in Steelers history.
3
Bell needs three rushing scores to match Rashard Mendenhall (29) for fifth-most in franchise history
80
A half-sack would give James Harrison 80 in his career with the Steelers which only increases his lead for most sacks in team history. Jason Gildon is second on the list with 77. However, with only four snaps last week, there may not be enough opportunities for Deebo to achieve this.
6
William Gay will break a tie with Rod Woodson to set the record for the most interceptions returned for touchdowns in team history with his next pick six of six.
10
With a win on Sunday, the Steelers consecutive regular season games win streak will move up to nine. This dates back to Week 11 of the 2016 season and includes five road games.
