175 Interesting Facts from the 2019 Fantasy Football Season

One of my absolute favorite things to do when the NFL season comes to an end is to sit down and sift through countless statistics. Why? Well, I suppose it’s just in my blood. You see, my dad would have this party trick where he’d call me over at any point there was a gathering of sports fans and ask me a random question about stats. Whether it be a Frank Thomas’ batting average, Steve Young’s touchdown to interception ratio, or how many blocks per game Alonzo Mourning was averaging, he knew that I’d have the answer.

Before the Internet was a thing, I’d wait for the newspaper to arrive on our doorstep so that I could go through the box scores and create my own unique charts (my version of Excel on college ruled paper). I craved information and was proud at what I was able to retain. That’s never left me. I even used to collect stats from playing Madden franchise mode, year over year. I don’t mind staring at numbers for hours and trying to find the most obscure stats for everyone else to enjoy. That’s why I did this article the last two years and why I’ll do it again in 2021. Once you read them all, come on over to Twitter (@MikeTagliereNFL) and let me know which is your favorite.
