  • Records and Milestones in the 2011 NFL Season

    The 2011 NFL season was the year of the quarterback, although kickers (Janikowski, Akers), return men (Sproles, Peterson, Cobb) and Tight Ends (Gronkowski) made an impact.

    The defense might not have been of the highest quality all game long, but it mattered the most, the Green Bay Packers got their stops, right on time, right on the goalline.
