It'll be the RB running for more yards. QB will be second. WR third. 1 Quote
Mikie2times Posted February 12 Posted February 12 I think 1 and 2 are going down in the next decade. Peyton's record will be era dependent. It's not getting broken anytime soon, but when we eventually shift back to passing I could see that one falling sooner than LT's 31 TD. RB's need to be so heavily featured to get near that. So many 2 back teams and TD wealth sharing. You would think Allen has a chance at Farve and maybe he does, but to put it in context, he's not even half way. That is just a crazy record. INT's a are a bit random, but most the 11+ guys played in a different era. Only about 5 guys have had even 10 or more in the 2000's. Lanes record has held up 70+ years already. Diggs got the closest with modern players and it probably remains that way perhaps past most of our lifetimes. Then finally, nobody is breaking Blanda's record. The leashes just aren't long enough at this point for that to happen. 1. Calvin Johnson 1964 receiving yards 2. Eric Dickerson 2105 rushing yards 3. Peyton Manning 5477 yards 4. Peyton Manning 55 passing TDs 5. LT 31 TDs 6. Brett favre 297 consecutive starts 7. Night train lane 14 interceptions on defense 1 season 8. George blanda 42 interceptions thrown 1 season 1 1 Quote

George blanda 42 interceptions thrown 1 season Had to throw George blanda in there lol I guess I could have done post merger.. vinny testaverde 35, Jameis wiston 30 Both are also probably really tough to break cuz quarterbacks don't have that leash 1 Quote
Big Turk Posted February 12 Posted February 12 Interceptions will never get broken with how few are thrown these days. 2 Quote

I think 30 picks is maybe possible? It would have to be a situation just like Winston. Basically a super high pick. Gunslinger type QB. Team is totally committed. They just let him play thru it all. But still unlikely I would think. 1 Quote

Bruce always thought was basically almost untouchable also Yet, Myles Garrett has now entered into territory that he can do it if he wants to play for a while That's probably the only guy who will have a chance to break it for a long time... It's an extremely impressive record Consistency and longevity is ridiculously hard at that position I'll add that to the list Edited February 12 by Buffalo716 1 2 Quote

As it stands, if Garret can play 6 years and average 12.5 per year he can do it. But ya, he's 30 now, all it takes is one guy rolling on you leg to end that pursuit. Bruce was an absolute freak. Just not many guys you can say who would be dominating with the exact same body 30 years later. 1 Quote
Old Coot Posted February 12 Posted February 12 An interesting stat on Blanda's record of 42 interceptions in a season: His Houston Oilers in that season (1962) finished 11-3! 2 1 1 Quote

Buffalo716 Posted February 12 Author Posted February 12 (edited) @Mikie2times Also Jameis Winston threw 30 interceptions while he was visually impaired lol Always needed contacts or glasses and refuse to wear them... Going back to Florida State After 30 interceptions he said yeah maybe I do need Lasik surgery Edited February 12 by Buffalo716 Quote

But Night Train Lane - 14 picks in a 12-game season back in 1952 when teams didn't pass as much as they do today! Holy crap! I don't know which record will fall first, maybe Calvin Johnson's, but I'm rooting hard for Drake Maye to break George Blanda's record! 1 3 Quote

Just not many guys you can say who would be dominating with the exact same body 30 years later. Garrett is a physical freak too tough. His speed and strength is crazy. Like you said though, will take 5-6 years of 12-14 sacks person season to get there. Before then, I’d have to pick the receiving record in a season to be broken. Seems like every season there’s a new guy putting up monster numbers. One of these years there’s going to be a QB/WR connection that’s unheard of. A guy like Chase, Puka or JSN just getting peppered every game. Quote
BullBuchanan Posted February 12 Posted February 12 Yards and Passing TDs seem the easiest and most likely to break. There's an outside shot at Dickerson's record, but it'll take a perfect storm of a team that's elite outside of QB. Not sure any active RB has it in them. Quote
Doc Brown Posted February 12 Posted February 12 I'd go WR with the extra game. Five WR's since the extra game was added in 2020 constitute the 10 best WR yard seasons of all time. Kupp being the closest only finishing 17 yards behind Calvin Johnson. I could see Jefferson (once he gets a real QB), Chase, Nakua, or Coleman breaking it. 1 Quote
