Commanders get huge win, plus 10 more incredible stats from Week 16

The sixteenth week of the NFL is nearly in the books, with just one game left to play. Several players had incredible performances, along with surprising results from multiple teams.

Arguably the best performance came from Jayden Daniels and the Commanders, who took down the Eagles despite allowing 30+ points and committing five turnovers. Entering Sunday, teams that allowed 30 points and committed five giveaways were 1-158 since 2003, with the Commanders recording the second such win in that span. Before the game, Philadelphia was 32-0 since 1960 when scoring 30+ points and forcing five or more takeaways. 

Daniels has led Washington to their first 10-win season since 2012, with this also being the first time they've recorded 10 wins through the first 15 games since 1991. He also became the second player in NFL history with 250+ pass yards, 75+ rush yards and five pass touchdowns in a game— joining Cam Newton who did so in 2015.

The former Heisman winner is also the third player in NFL history to have a game with five passing scores and 75+ rushing yards, joining Lamar Jackson (twice in 2019) and Cam Newton (2015). Both Jackson and Newton won the MVP in those respective seasons. Additionally, he connected with Terry McLaurin for the 12th time this season, which is now the most by a rookie quarterback to a single receiver all-time, breaking a tie with Joe Namath and Don Maynard (connected for 11 in 1965). McLaurin also tied the Commanders single-season record for touchdown catches in the process, and will break it with his next touchdown reception. 

Daniels and the Commanders weren't the only highlights from this weekend. FOX Sports Research broke down ten more eye-opening nuggets for you. Let's take a look:
