I was just perusing some of the all time records over at Drinen's Pro-football-reference.com... Had a few thoughts...
- There's no way Brett Favre retires. He's 24 TD passes short of Dan Marino's record..... I think he breaks it this year.
- Jerry Rice's receiving records are ridiculous. 22895 yards and 197 tds.... He is also the all time leader in yards from scrimage with 23540. The next 9 people on the list after him are running backs.....
- I didn't realize that Tiki Barber led the league in yards from scrimage in each of the last two seasons... 2096 in 2004 and 2390 last year which is second of all time to Marshall Faulk's 2429 in 1999.
- Curtis Martin is 4254 yards shy of Emmit's rushing record.... He's 33 now and coming off injury.... I'd love to see him make a run at it, but he needs 3-4 good years.....
Thats it for now....
