3. Travis Kelce moves up the top-10 receptions list

Kansas City Chiefs legendary tight end Travis Kelce came up just a bit shy on his quest to move up the top-10 receptions list as he came off of his bye week last weekend. Sitting just a pair of catches behind Cris Carter, Kelce is so close to moving up to the sixth most catches of all time. That, however, is not the only spot that Kelce can overtake on Sunday Night Football, as he sits three grabs behind Marvin Harrison and could move into fifth on the receptions leaderboard in the history of the NFL.

2. Aaron Rodgers moves up the top-10 passing touchdowns list

With a pair of touchdown tosses against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 6, Aaron Rodgers moved agonizingly close to moving up in the history books last weekend. Alas, the veteran quarterback moved into a tie with Peyton Manning for the third-most passing scores in the history of the entire league. As such, Rodgers could break that tie on Sunday morning as his Steelers become a part of history in the franchise’s own right with the final entry in the power rankings for Week 7 of the NFL season.

1. The first NFL game in Paris

While the matchup did not look great early in the season, the Pittsburgh Steelers facing off against the New Orleans Saints in Paris, France, is shaping up to be a fun game to watch in the 9:30 window on Sunday. A pair of scrappy teams that can flick the switch and go ballistic on offense feels like a great first game for the City of Light. Not only that, but the city could see three feats of history if the previously mentioned Steelers players can reach their marks this weekend.
