He needs to hurry up and get himself into the top 100.

 

Currently needs about 13,700 yards and would push Neil O'Donnell out...

Wow, Fitz is 32 in NFL Passing Yards Career Leaders

 

That is a shocker and so is Kerry Collins at 20, one spot ahead of Joe Montana...Flacco just passed him last game for 19th.

And I suspect a little Black Fitzmagic to start so many games as the intended backup. He’s got a stash of punctured voodoo dolls somewhere, but he’s too smart to let us find them.

Kerry Freakin’ Collins?  Seriously?  I wouldn’t have guessed that in a million years

Randy Johnson killed a bird though.  Let's see Allen do that before we get all giddy.

That is no fair since a bird getting in the way of a ball is an act of God.

As an aside to show how far the NFL has come in terms of passing...

 

For his career, Arnie Herber completed 40.1% of his passes, threw 81 TDs to 106 INTs and had a passer rating of barely over 50.

 

And was inducted into the NFL HOF.

So b.c a guy had bad stats back when football was played by normal men in the early 1900's Fitz should get in? That is a weak argument...

Who said that? I was merely showing what was considered great back in the late 30s and early 40s in terms of passing.
