The NFL record for most passing yards in a single game belongs to Norm Van Brocklin. The Rams quarterback threw for 554 yards against the New York Yanks on September 28, 1951.
No quarterback has thrown for 600 yards in a league game during regulation, but Tom Brady was the first player to total 600 or more yards passing over four consecutive quarters.
Consecutive games with 300 yards passing: 9 (2011-12; 2012-13). Brees is tied with himself for this record. Only Eli Manning enters this season with a streak of two consecutive 300-yard games. Last year, Andrew Luck had a string of eight consecutive 300-yard passing games.

Alabama was coming off a 52-49 loss to Tennessee Saturday, the second consecutive year the Tide's only regular season loss came on a field goal on the final play of a road game.
They've labeled Alabama an underdog three times over 13 seasons: the 2009 SEC championship against Florida; a 2015 regular season game against Georgia; and last month's SEC title game against Georgia. The Tide won those games by 19, 28 and 17 points, respectively, and never lost thereafter.
It is rare for a team to have scored in a game when the opponent scored over 100 points, but several cases exist, including when SMU kicked an early field goal but Rice "came back" to win 11234–3 in 1916. Early records are often incomplete and sometimes contradictory.
Their 54–4 loss to Sewanee is the last time Alabama allowed an opponent to score 50 points in a regulation game until a 52-49 loss to Tennessee on October 15, 2022.
No, an NFL team has never scored 100 points in a game. The Raiders beat the Oilers 52-49 on Sunday to clinch their first division title in 25 years. They were led by quarterback Derek Carr who threw for 447 yards and five touchdowns.
Mahomes threw for 5,097 yards and 50 touchdowns en route to MVP honors during his first season as a starter in 2018.
Still, Young surpassed even the most optimistic projections, as he became the first Alabama quarterback to win the Heisman trophy as college football's best player.
Despite the loss at the hands of the LSU Tigers, Alabama Crimson Tide kicker, Will Reichard, walked away a record holder. Reichard is now the all-time leading scorer in the Crimson Tide program history which is insane when you think of all of the talented players who have come through Tuscaloosa.
Their overall official record under Saban is 185-27 (.873) (190–27 on the field), 21 bowl game appearances with 15 victories, nine SEC West titles, eight SEC championships, and six national championships. Since 2008, Saban's teams have spent part or all of each season ranked No. 1 in national polls.
What quarterback holds most records?
In the NFL, the starting quarterback is the only position that is credited with records of wins and losses. Tom Brady holds the record for the most regular season wins with 251. Otto Graham holds the record for the highest winning percentage with a minimum of 50 starts at . 814 (57–13–1).
Drew Brees was the most recent player with a seven-TD game, doing so in a thrilling 52-49 New Orleans Saints win over the Giants back in November 2015. The other QBs to reach the milestone are Adrian Burk (Eagles, 1954), George Blanda (Oilers, 1961), Y.A.
Tittle (Giants, 1962), Joe Kapp (Vikings, 1969), Peyton Manning (Broncos, 2013) and Nick Foles (Eagles, 2013). Tagovailoa's six-TD game is tied for ninth all time with a long list of players. Prior to Sunday, Patrick Mahomes was the last player to have a six-TD performance.
