- Week 1 was a scoring bonanza — 791 total points (49.4 per game), matching the most for any Week 1 in the Super Bowl era; six games topped 60 points and the Bears opened with a wild 59-37 win.
- Coaches say less live tackling in preseason/training camp left defenses rusty, which helped offenses explode (lots of plays after the catch and unusually high third‑down/red‑zone conversion rates).
- Weird results already: three teams scored 30+ and still lost (a Week‑1 rarity), Week 2 started with another high‑scoring game (Bills 41-31), and Chicago is openly chasing the highest-scoring season ever — fun talking points for the week.
