A quick glance at the 2014 NFL season by the numbers:

0 — Teams that have repeated as NFC South champions. The division came into existence in 2002 when the NFL expanded to 32 teams.

1 — AFC quarterback to start the Super Bowl in the last 12 years not named Brady, Manning or Roethlisberger. Give up? (Joe Flacco.)

4 — Franchises who have never reached a Super Bowl: Texans, Browns, Jaguars, Lions.

4 — Franchises who have not won a division title since realignment in 2002: Bills, Browns, Jaguars, Lions.

4 — Times Saints QB Drew Brees has surpassed 5,000 passing yards in a season.

4 — Times quarterbacks not named Drew Brees have surpassed 5,000 passing yards in a season (Dan Marino, Tom Brady, Matthew Stafford, Peyton Manning).

5 — Number of active players remaining in the league who played in the 1990s: 49ers K Phil Dawson, Colts QB Matt Hasselbeck, Broncos QB Peyton Manning, Colts K Adam Vinatieri and Raiders S Charles Woodson. Their ranks were reduced by one when the Saints cut CB Champ Bailey on Saturday.

7 — Years since Rams last had a receiver gain more than 800 yards in a season (Torry Holt had 1,189 in 2007).

10 — Years since a team won consecutive Super Bowls (2004 Patriots).

14 — Years since the Steelers last missed the playoffs for a third consecutive year, a mark they could match in 2014.

15 — Years since the Bills last reached the playoffs, the longest current drought in the NFL.

18 — Peyton Manning's jersey number ... and the number of touchdown passes the Broncos quarterback and reigning MVP needs to break Brett Favre's all-time record (508).

20 — Starting quarterbacks the Browns have had since their rebirth in 1999, a figure that includes incumbent Brian Hoyer, who went 3-0 for the team in 2013. (And we're also wondering when Johnny Manziel goes blackjack on this figure.)

23.4 — The number of seconds the Eagles needed between plays in 2013, the quickest pace since footballoutsiders.com began tracking the metric in 1997.

24 — Years since the Bengals last won a postseason game, the longest active streak in the league and tied for sixth-longest in league history.

33 — Rushing yards needed by 49ers RB Frank Gore to reach 10,000 for his career. The only other active backs to hit five figures on the ground are Steven Jackson (10,678) and Adrian Peterson (10,115). Maurice Jones-Drew is the only other active player who has surpassed 8,000 rushing yards (8,071).

39 — Most sacks by one duo in NFL history: Chris Doleman (21) and Keith Millard (18) of the 1989 Vikings. Do your worst, J.J. Watt/Jadeveon Clowney and DeMarcus Ware/Von Miller.

42 — Years since a team (1972 Dolphins) won the Super Bowl the season after losing it. Good luck, Broncos.

46 — Years since the Jets last reached the Super Bowl, the longest a team has ever waited for a return trip. (The Chiefs have been waiting for 45 years.)

136 — Total regular-season wins the Cowboys have posted since 1997.

136 — Total regular-season losses the Cowboys have posted since 1997. (Dallas is 24-24 in Jason Garrett's three full seasons as head coach.)

143 — Rushing yards the Jets' Michael Vick needs to become the first quarterback in league history to reach 6,000. Vick has rushed for fewer than 143 yards only once in his 11 NFL seasons — 2009, his first following reinstatement following his two-season absence.
