    The NFL Numbers Game Week 6: The Stats You Need to Know

    Week 6 gave us plenty to talk about, with some familiar faces stepping up, a few unexpected names getting involved, and some big target totals that didn’t exactly translate into big fantasy performances.

Aaron Rodgers is somehow throwing the ball less efficiently than Cam Ward. And somewhere in Atlanta, Kyle Pitts is wondering why he bothered getting dressed. Meanwhile, rookies are making
