NFL stats and records, Week 7: Drake Maye breaks Patriots franchise record; Broncos' Bo Nix proves no lead is safe

NFL Research spotlights the best nuggets from each slate of games. Here are the most eye-popping statistical accomplishments from Week 7 of the 2025 NFL season.

There have been 26 games with a lead change in the final two minutes of regulation this season, the most in NFL history through seven weeks. One of the most improbable comebacks in recent memory was accomplished by the Broncos on Sunday.

Denver trailed, 19-0, entering the fourth quarter — shut out at home by a 2-4 Giants team that was starting to find its groove. Bo Nix was struggling, penalties were mounting (the Broncos finished with 12 accepted against them), and the Giants looked like they were about to earn yet another signature win against a 2024 playoff team.

Then, chaos reigned. The Broncos put up 33 points in the final frame alone, the most points scored in NFL history by any team that had been shut out through the first three quarters of a game. In doing so, they were able to come away with a last-second 33-32 victory. Prior to today, teams were 161-0 since 2007 when shutting out their opponent and leading by 18 points or more after first three quarters.

Drake Maye was the star of the show in Mike Vrabel’s victorious return to Tennessee, where the Patriots took down the Titans, 31-13. The second-year quarterback had as many incomplete passes (two) as he had touchdown passes in Week 7.

Maye finished 21 of 23 for 222 yards and two TDs, and he added another 62 rushing yards on eight carries. He is the first player in the Super Bowl era to complete 90 percent of his passes, throw for over 200 yards and rush for over 50 yards in a single game.

Maye’s 91.3 completion percentage broke Tom Brady’s franchise record of 88.5, which he set against the Jaguars in 2009.
