***Lagarette Blount needs 10 more rushing yards to get 5000 yards for his career
**Tom Brady needs 457 passing yards to pass Dan Marino for 4th all time.
** If Brady can throw 6 TD passes without an interception he will have a 3:1 TD:int ratio in the regular season...(456:152)
***Brady needs 26 more yards ( passing/rushing or receiving) to reach 70,000 yards from scrimmage for his career ( regular season and post season). He has 60904 passing yards in regular season, 7957 passing yards in playoffs, 935 rushing yards in regular season and 119 post season rushing yards and 59 receiving yards. He is third all-time trailing only Brett Favre 79,602 and Peyton Manning 79,977. No NFL player has 80,000 yards from scrimmage but Brady could reach it in two more years including the remainder of 2016....

Good stats, thanks for your research.
 
The first 80K man would be something else.


And to top it off with a nice "in your face" cherry Manning would be sitting at home thinking "awe shucks" I could have been the first 80K guy.
 
EDIT-- I did not deduct for sacks so to be technical, I should probably call it "positive yards from scrimmage" or I'd have to deduct another 3000 yards or so.....for Brady and slightly less for the pizza/insurance/DirecTV man

Sack yards list are only a team stat and do not get charged to QB.
 
So he has over 1k in rushing between regular season and postseason, eh?

Have to keep that in mind the next time I'm at someone's house surrounded by people I don't really know and Brady pops on the screen. Will provide zero context and simply say, "it's amazing that he's a thousand yard rusher", then walk out of the room immediately to let everyone ponder it in confusion.
 
Was anyone else expecting stats about the JEST?

For what ever reason Drew Brees might end up with more Passing yards than Brady. He is like 37 so if he holds up he might.. not that I care at all about passing yards. I like the TD/INT Ratio. Thats a great stat. And of course winning percentage. some of that credit goes to Bill though. BB/TB combo.

The reasons for Brees yardage are a combination of factors:
1) most of his games have been played in a dome with ideal weather conditions
2) He has been behind in more games and had to throw the ball. His overall record ( which can be partly explained by Saint horrible defense ) is 129-100 compared to Brady's 180-52 and his td:int ratio is closer to 2:1 compared to Brady's 3:1.(458:219 vs 450:152 for Brady)
3) He has had a faster group of WRs over the years and has to my recollection much more of the 70,80 and even 90 yard TD receptions where a slant pattern is caught and the guy is off to the races.....
4) He has 500 more passing attempts 8626 vs 8132 for Brady..
5) Brees has had 7 winning seasons and 6 losing seasons. Brady has never had a losing season.....over 15 years ( not counting 2008)
My intent is not to make this into a Brady vs Brees comparison, just explaining why Brees has more yardage and why I'd still take Brady (like all of us) in a heartbeat.
 
IMO the most "useless" impressive stats and milestones are post season..

950 Pass Attempts most completions 590... no one is close to that.
Needs 165 yards to pass Peyton for most passing yards all time in the playoffs.
Needs 2 more TD's to pass Joe Montana for most all time in the playoffs
Then there is his 22-9 record post season, .710 winning percentage and no one else is close to these numbers..


Then there are his Superbowl records as he appeared in 6 so far..

They have always been an offensive team, often for the sake of crappy defenses..

Are you sure about that
Brady 56 playoff TD passes- Montana 45
Brady 7957 post season passing yards to Mannings 7339 per profootballreference.com
 
80,000 yards from scrimmage but Brady could reach it in two more years including the remainder of 2016....

If my math is right thats about 45 miles which is approx my house to Logan Airport.

Ridiculous.
