Chasing Milestones

If McCaffrey tops 175 scrimmage yards on Sunday, it would mark his fourth straight game with at least 175 scrimmage yards, tying Edgerrin Games (Weeks 7-10, 1999) for the longest such streak in NFL history.
• Kyle Allen has gone 4-0 over his first four starts as a Panther. With a win on Sunday, he would become the first Panthers QB to ever go 5-0 in his first five starts, breaking Jake Delhomme's mark from 2003.
• Joey Slye (4) needs three 50-yard or longer field goals to break Graham Gano's franchise record of six 50+ field goals from 2013.
• Greg Olsen (59) needs four touchdowns to pass Shannon Sharpe (62) for sixth place all-time in career touchdown receptions by a tight end.
