20: Percentage of third downs converted by the Bears offense versus Dallas, the team's lowest in any game this season.

25.2: First downs per game for the Saints offense, which leads the league.

47.4: Percentage of third downs converted against the New Orleans defense, highest in the NFL.

65: Consecutive starts for Brandon Marshall, tied for the longest streak in the league among wide receivers. That streak will come to an end on Monday, as Marshall was placed on injured reserve last week with a rib and lung injury.

69.3: Completion percentage this season for Saints quarterback Drew Brees, highest in the NFL.

70: Different players who have seen game action for the Bears in 2014, the highest total in the NFL.
