NFL Fantastic 5: Matt Ryan and the best stats from Week 3
By Shaun Church
The NFL fantastic five is a stats-based column we will have for you every Wednesday of the NFL season highlighting, you guessed it, five fantastic stats from the previous week of the NFL season. For Week 3, there was no shortage of fantastic stats, so join us as we peruse some of the best.
Does the word fantastic always mean excellent or great? No, it doesn’t.
Fantastic can also mean grotesque, overwhelming or unbelievable, depending on context.
Indeed, fantastic will most often be used here as it usually is in every-day life: as an adjective to describe something awesome—or excellent or great, if you prefer.
OK, enough about the English language and its use in this column. Let’s talk fantastic football stats and which five made the cut this week.
