[QUOTE="adambr2, post: 513411, member: 7277"] One of the reasons I don't worry too much about the defense when we give up 300 yards through the air is that this is starting to become the norm around the NFL, not a passing benchmark. 300 yard passers in Week 2 - Rodgers 480, Bradford 352, Ryan 374, Tannehill 319, Luck 321, Rivers 419, Vick 428, Brees 322, P Manning 307, E Manning 362. That's 10 out of 28 starters, with 4 still to play. This is after 10 in Week 1. Even the ones with less than 300 are often close in the 250-299 range. Rodgers and Manning are on astounding paces to shatter the yardage and TD single season records. While these paces aren't likely to hold up, I would still not at all be surprised to see one or both records fall this year. I am actually shocked that in this era, Norm Van Brocklin's single game record of 554 yards passing has held up for 62 years. I would think it's just a matter of time til it falls, but so far it keeps holding up. [/QUOTE]
