Showboat 145 Posted January 5 I see a lot of hype around Puka Nacua having a chance to set the rookie receiving record that has stood since 1960. It seems to be a big nothing-burger to me. The record was set in a 14 game season before implementation of all the recent rules changes that make passing the ball easier than ever. Breaking the record in a 17 game season with a bye week thrown in does not seem all that impressive to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,477 Posted January 5 Throw in all records. Heck 14 game record breakers shouldn’t be a big deal, they used to play a 12 game season. Toss out all records. Amen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The game changes over time. So do the records. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nobody 2,053 Posted January 6 Maybe they should reformat the records to be on a per game so it normalizes to the how many games were played in that season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
