The NFL It is a league with more than a hundred years and thousands of matches in its history. With so much travel, American football has great brands that seem hard to topple.
The SportingNews features a decade that may not last long: more yards for a quarterback during the regular season.
Who is the quarterback with the most yards in an NFL season?
Peyton Manning He is one of the greatest names in NFL history and holds the record for most yards in an NFL season. To the surprise of many (or at least some), the historic No. 18 of the Indianapolis Colts didn’t make it, but he did during his short tenure at Denver Broncosa franchise that also led to the title.
Payton finished all 16 games with 5,477 receiving yards, averaging 342.3 yards per game. To those outstanding numbers he added 55 TDs (also a campaign record) and just 10 interceptions. completed 68.3% of his passes.
In that magical 2013, Manning beat Drew Brees in 2011 by just one yard. All modern names appear in the top 10: Tom Brady, Ben Roethlisberger, Jameis Winston Y Patrick Mahomes.
Why would there be a new brand owner? The NFL established a 17-game regular season (one more than before), so players need a lower average yards per game than Peyton recorded.
