Has this happened before?

[ItsNotGonnaBeAlright]

Assuming that Tom Brady doesn't pass for 190 more yards than Drew Brees does this weekend, both the single season passing yardage record for rookie QB's and all-time QB's will be set in the same game by two different players on opposing teams.

Has there ever been a scenario comparable to that?

I highly doubt it.

[Jangler]

no, but then I hadn't thought about it.

I can't stand the Patriots, but I wouldn't mind Brady taking the record at season's end. He's a better QB than Brees, IMHO. If we helped that happen, gravy....

Both defenses should just start in the nickel.

[jayflip]

You just blew my mind.

Injure Brees early and Brady is good

It is possible

[Woodie]

On NO's first play of the game, if Brees throws the ball under heavy pressure and a back catches it 4 yards behind the line of scrimmage and is tackled immediately (dropping Brees' passing yards one below Marino's), and Brees hits his head hard and is out for the rest of the game, does he still get credit for the record? Hmmmmmmmmm.

Then you'd think back to how Jamaal Charles momentarily broke Jim Brown's record for rushing yards per attempt, but then got tackled for a one yard loss last year.

In other words, he shouldn't.
