Teams to score 34+ points in 4 straight games in last 4 seasons:
Lions in 2025
Lions in 2024

(Detroit had never scored 34+ in 4 straight, including playoffs, until 2024. They did it last 3 regular season games in 1952 and 1953 opener but didn't in either playoff game in 1952)

Can only look back to 1991 and most fumbles is 12 (Lions-Packers 12/6/1992) and most lost fumbles is 7 (done a lot but last was 9/18/2014 Bucs-Falcons)

If Bills win tonight it will be 1st time a team is 5-0 thru 5 weeks and every other team in division has a losing record since 2018 with the Rams in the NFC West
