Factoid
Both Terrell Owens and Lee Evans have led their teams in receiving touchdowns in each of the last five years, two of only six players to have done so. The others are Larry Fitzgerald, Antonio Gates, Torry Holt and Randy Moss -- Moss with the Vikings, Raiders and Patriots. (Only the Titans, incidentally, have had five different player lead them in that category since 2004.)
In the case of Owens and Evans, only a tie will keep one of their streaks from ending, now that both play for the Buffalo Bills.
