He's going to easily beat out Kelly's best yardage year in 1991.

Yards  3844

TDs.    33

.....all Josh has to do is average 163 yards per game to out yardage Jim. 

 

I'd like to see him get real close to the TD mark!!!

Are you seriously planning on updating this tread weekly for the next 10, 15 or more years

 

that's some dedication 

 

I mean, why not...I have been on the forum for almost that long now, so it will actually give me something to do during the season.

Very interesting thread and thank for putting it together!

 

But since Josh runs so much would you be able to also update the OP to include total yards? Not fair to punish Josh by not including his rush yards!!!

 

Thanks!

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.

 

Changes to offensive philosophy, rules protecting quarterbacks and sports medicine all huge contributors here.  This is why you cannot compare QB's from different era's with stats.   This is also why I believe an argument can be made that Montana is the GOAT.

He's also close to having played for all 32 teams. What a coincidence!

 

Close only counts in horse shoes and hand grenades' and nuclear bombs.

 

8/32 = 25%.  Your hand grenade fell at your feet. Too close for comfort.

Some would claim Unitas...

 

What he was doing compared to most of his contemporaries was astounding. I think that is part of it when comparing eras...you have to look at what the player was doing in comparison to the other players who were playing at that time.

Not sure if anyone has ever seen the work Flicktures does on various Buffalo themed artwork, but his drawings/paintings are absolutely amazing!

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. 

I took Tua getting benched as confirmation that teams cannot break the Fitz cycle without incurring the wrath of Papa Legba.

Hell no! I can't even draw a stick figure hahaha...

 

The original small black and white one I am not sure who did that but the 2 I posted are done by a local Buffalo guy under the handle Flicktures. He has his own facebook page, etc where you can see his work which is exceptional...sometimes he holds raffles when he does a new print for people to get a numbered one, I have often thought about getting some stuff from him but haven't yet.

 

He also does commissioned original work as well, but I don't know much about that.

 

I have always just been amazed at how great his drawings turn out.

Ok so when do the weekly updates come out?

 

I guess his whopping 157 yards launched him to 218th. Any new "notables" in range?
