Records Set
Team Records Set or Tied

Most Yards Gained, Season, 7,474
Most Yards Gained, Passing, Season, 5,347
Most Passes Completed, Season, 472
Highest Completion Percentage, Season, 71.3
Most First Downs, Season, 416
Most First Downs, Passing, Season, 280
Most Points at Home, Season, 329
Most Points per Home Game, Season, 41.1
Most Points, Single Team, Game, Since AFL/NFL Merger, 62 (vs Indianapolis Colts) Oct. 23, 2011 (tied with four other teams)

The league was also pretty different that year, in case you forgot. We almost didn't even have a 2011 season due to the lockout, but by the time the labor dispute was resolved, there was only a month left for teams to prepare to begin the season. I shouldn't have to tell you how much that hurt defenses across the league.

We do have a statistical advantage over the 07 Patriots, but numbers don't tell the whole story.
