Gert T 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2003 I'd like to add Favre's consecutive games streak at QB and whoever has the consecutive games streak at all positions. And Jerry Rice is not around to pad his stats, it wouldn't matter anyway, as his stats are just out of anybody's league. It'll have to take somebody with the mixture of his caliber of talent, work ethic, and longetivity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damaramu 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2003 Rice was a god. And the fact that he worked with Joe Montana and Steve Young didn't hurt him to much either. And back in his day there seemed to be so many godlike QB's around. It seemed just about every team had one that went down as an all time great. These days...a couple.

Guest BobbyWhioux Report post Posted December 29, 2003 I believe "Night Train" Lane still holds the record for most interceptions in a season, with 14 (in the 12 game season days, no less). Good luck breaking that. Any guy good enough to pick off that many balls, and people will just stop throwing to their side of the field faster than you can say "Deion Sanders." [Oh, heh, Harley Quinn mentioned that one already... okay, lemme think of another one] 6 touchdowns in a game by Gayle Sayers? Well, if we're counting the perfect season... how about Three Consecutive World Championships? Nobody's done it in the Super Bowl Era, though if you go back before it Lombardi's Packers managed it (1965, 66, and 67). Which also made for 5 championships in a seven year span. I highly doubt anyone will ever do that. Especially now that parity and the salary cap are the laws of the land. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bored 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2003 Jerry Rice has already been mentioned but his best record that probably will never be broken is his 22 touchdown receptions in only 12 games in 1987, due to the strike with one cancelled game and three "scab" games. Sterling Sharpe had 18 in 1994 and that is the closest anyone has got since and probably no one will reach it only 12 games played. His single season receiving yards record of 1848 yards in 1995 seems harder to reach than expected. Every other year someone seems to be on pace to break it, Torry Holt was the guy this year, but can't get within 100 yards of the record since Rice set it. Funny enough Issac Bruce is 2nd with 1781 yards and that was also in 1995. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. Tom 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2003 The perfect season. There's just no reason to do it anymore, since teams now focus on remaining healthy for the playoffs, as they should. It doesn't matter if you swept the regular season... if you get bounced in your first playoff game because your star RB tore up his knee carrying you to that precious 16th win, what did you really accomplish? Johnny Unitas' 47 straight games with a TD pass. That's three full seasons, less one game, in a row throwing a TD pass. That's just not going to happen. Dan Marino's 48 TD passes in one season. Peyton Manning led the league this year. Guess how many he had? 29. Yeah, that's good -- almost 2 a game, in fact -- but Marino averaged 3 TD passes a game for the entire season. That's just insane. With defenses geared toward the pass these days, an average od 3 TD passes a game just isn't going to happen anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With defenses geared toward the pass these days, an average od 3 TD passes a game just isn't going to happen anymore. Marino has the 2nd highest total, as well (44). Kurt Warner passed for 41 in 1999. Any reason you didn't include his single-season yardage record, as well? To break it, a QB would need to average 318 yards/game for the entire season. Kurt Warner came the closest (in 2001), but he still fell 254 yards short. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. Tom 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2003 Any reason you didn't include his single-season yardage record, as well? Yes. I think it's a tough record to break, but it's not untouchable. Warner challenged it a few years ago. Gannon made a run at it last year. Yes, both eventually fell short, but to me, the yeardage mark seems easier to attain than the touchdown record. A team that falls behind a lot and is forced to pass could see their QB pile up the yardage, but not necessarily the TDs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Redhawk Report post Posted December 30, 2003 Lenny Moore scored a touchdown in 18 straight games, I believe. Rich Gannon came close to Marino's yardage record in '01, so it's not unreachable, especially with the way teams pass more often. 7 sacks in one game (Derrick Thomas vs. Seattle in 1990, I think) seems like a hell of a task. So does 330 receiving yards in one game (Flipper Anderson vs. New Orleans, 1991 or so) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
