Week 1 2020 NFL Score Report: Since they completed it, we gotta do it...

  • 47.375 points per game for the first week of the season.
  • A lot of people talking that lack of crowds will stifle any home-field advantage.  This week would give that credence.  In total, home teams went 8-8, but the two games in which the home team had a crowd, the home team won both.  In empty stadiums, the home team was 6-8.
  • Surprisingly, the Over was only 9-7.
  • One game kicked a Pick, so the ATS/SU numbers are based on 15 games.  8-7 ATS, 9-6 SU -- the only difference was Tennessee.
  • Teams with more penalties won only 4 games out of 14 this week.  4-10.
  • Two Cliffhangers:  The Monday nighter with Tennessee and a FG with 15 seconds left (after Gostkowski missed three field goals AND an extra point beforehand!!!), and Chicago beating Detroit on a touchdown at 1:54 of the fourth.
  • Most interesting stat of the week:  Only seven of the 16 games ended within one score.  ALL SEVEN, though, ended with a Last Chance Miss, including the two Cliffhangers!!!
  • Five non-competitive games this week.
