Key Statistics for NFL 2021 (Through Super Bowl LVI)

It’s all over for 2021.

The NFL embarked on its first 272-game regular season. It began with a Thursday night clash when the defending Super Bowl champion Buccaneers edged the Cowboys in Tampa, 31-29. It ended with a 35-32 Sunday night overtime win by the Raiders at Las Vegas over the Los Angeles Chargers.

The 2021 NFL postseason was full of excitement. After a lackluster wild card round, there were a combined six three-point decisions out of the seven games in the divisional round, championship round and Super Bowl. The only exception? Kansas City’s 42-36 overtime win over the Bills in the AFC Divisional Playoffs.

All told, there are plenty of numbers when it comes to the game of football. And it’s always interesting to keep an eye on home field advantage in the NFL. In both 2019 and 2021, home teams finished just nine games above .500. In 2020, did COVID-19 and low or no stadium attendance result in a 127-128-1 mark for the home clubs?

Here are the final numbers for the regular season, as well as through the Los Angeles Rams‘ 23-20 win over the Cincinnati Bengals at Super Bowl LVI at SoFi Stadium.
