Matthew Stafford
Los Angeles Rams LAR · QB

1) Matthew Stafford

In his 17th season in the NFL, Matthew Stafford is out to one of the best starts by a quarterback in NFL history. Stafford leads the NFL with 25 touchdown passes in 2025 with just two interceptions to his name and his Rams sit tied atop the NFC West at 7-2.

He is one of only six quarterbacks in NFL history to toss at least 25 touchdowns and fewer than five interceptions through their first nine games of a season. He joins Aaron Rodgers in 2020, 2014 and 2011 – all MVP seasons – Patrick Mahomes in 2020 and Tom Brady's 2007 MVP season.

Stafford has slung a quartet of touchdowns in each of his last three games, and with another four in Week 11 against the Seahawks, he can become the third player in NFL history to throw for four touchdowns in at least four consecutive games within a season. Hall of Famers Peyton Manning – five straight games in his 2004 MVP season – and Dan Marino – four straight games in his 1984 MVP season – are the only others to accomplished the feat.

Davante Adams
Los Angeles Rams LAR · WR

2) Davante Adams

Davante Adams has caught an NFL-leading nine of Stafford's league-best 25 touchdown passes in 2025, one shy of reaching double digits for the seventh time in his career. Adams would join Hall of Famers Randy Moss, Jerry Rice, Marvin Harrison and Terrell Owens as the only players to catch 10 touchdown passes in at least seven career seasons.

Only Owens with the 49ers, Eagles and Cowboys and Brandon Marshall with the Broncos, Bears and Jets – have posted a double-digit season with three different teams. Accomplishing the feat five times with the Packers and once with the Raiders, Adams can join the group with another receiving touchdown for the Rams in 2025.

Adams is also chasing some history on Sunday not just exclusive to the endzone, sitting on 999 career receptions as he prepares for his 174th career game in Week 11 against the Seahawks. With just a single catch, the Rams star receiver would become the third-fastest player ever to reach 1,000 career receptions. Only Keenan Allenand Hall of Famer Andre Johnson have reached the mark in fewer games played.

Myles Garrett
Cleveland Browns CLE · DE

3) Myles Garrett: Going where no pass rusher has gone before

Still not even 30 years old, Myles Garrett's 113.5 career sacks are already the most by any player prior to their 30th birthday, and his 11.0 sacks in 2025 are tied for the NFL lead with Brian Burns.

Since individual sacks were first tracked in 1982, Garrett and Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor are the only players to reach a dozen in five consecutive seasons. With another sack on Sunday, Garrett will become the first player to extend that streak to six consecutive seasons.

Only four players have recorded at least 12.0 sacks in seven total career seasons. Garrett could become the fifth with a sack in Week 11, joining Hall of Famers Reggie White, Kevin Greene and Bruce Smith as well as Leslie O'Neal.

Jahmyr Gibbs
Detroit Lions DET · RB

4) Jahmyr Gibbs

With his three-touchdown performance against the Commanders a week ago, Jahmyr Gibbs, who's tallied 41 career touchdowns, became just the fifth player in NFL history to score more than 40 touchdowns prior to their 24th birthday.

Gibbs doesn't turn 24 years old until March 20, 2026, and he is well within striking distance of the four Hall of Famers who sit ahead of him. The Lions blossoming superstar can tie Jim Brown's 42 (fourth most) with one score, Emmitt Smith's 43 (third most) with a pair and Randy Moss' 44 (second most) with another trifecta. The NFL under-24 record belongs Barry Sanders, who crossed the goal line 47 times before he turned 24.

CeeDee Lamb
Dallas Cowboys DAL · WR
Brock Bowers
Las Vegas Raiders LV · TE

5) CeeDee Lamb and Brock Bowers: Historic pass catchers duel in the desert

Few pass catchers have been as prolific upon entering the league as CeeDee Lamb and Brock Bowers, and the pair will share the stage on Monday Night Football looking to add to their resumes.

Lamb's 531 career receptions is already the third most in NFL history by a player in their first six career seasons, and he sits tied with Dez Bryant for the third most in Cowboys franchise history. Lamb needs just one catch to move solo into third place, looking up at only Jason Witten and Hall of Famer Michael Irvin on the Cowboys all-time list.

On the opposite sideline, Bowers enters with 144 career catches of his own, having set the NFL rookie record with 112 just a season ago. The Raiders second year tight end needs just three receptions to pass Sam LaPorta's 146 for the most receptions in NFL history by a tight end in their first two career seasons.
