Streaks on the Line in 2026 NFL | NFL News

0:00On September 7th, the NFL season is always more than just wins and losses. Heading into 2026, a bunch of interesting streaks are on the line, from playoff appearances to individual player stats. It's a whole other layer to the game we love. One of the most historic streaks is the Pittsburgh Steelers' run of not having a losing season. They haven't finished below 500 since 2003, and even with a new coach, Mike McCarthy, they'll be looking to keep that streak alive. Meanwhile, the Buffalo Bills are carrying the longest active streak of consecutive playoff appearances, making it seven years in a row. They've won at least one playoff game in six of those, showing they're not just showing up, they're competing. On the flip side, some teams are desperate to end droughts. The New York Jets haven't seen the postseason since 2010, the longest active drought in the league. The Atlanta Falcons are also looking to break a long spell without a playoff trip, and it's not just teams. Quarterback Jared Goff has thrown a touchdown pass in 23 straight games, and tackle Jake Matthews has started an incredible 100.

1:0696 consecutive games. These individual feats add another dimension to the upcoming season's storylines. That wraps NFL News Today, brought to you with AI.
