MDC 6,423 Posted July 30 Without watching the video I’ll say Jerry Rice’s career receiving yards: 22,895. More than 5,000 more than anybody else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
patweisers44 731 Posted July 30 Cy Young's 511 wins. If you win 20 games for 20 straight years you are still 111 away. There have been three 20-game winners in the last seven seasons. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good answer, and I've argued for Rice as the best NFL player ever for this reason (similar to my Rickey Henderson best baseball player ever argument). But... with the way the game has changed, I could see this being challenged. It would take somebody like Larry Fitz who loves/respects the game to do it, and I'm not sure the current crop of Chase/Jeff have it in them to last past their big paydays, but it could be done.

cyclone24 1,908 Posted July 31 I would think Cy Young, Ripken, whoever has strikeouts, complete games, stolen bases and hits wont. Lebron scoring wont Could see Phelps getting caught. Rice? Doubtful but league is going really pass heavy so maybe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But Otto Graham also won 7 NFL Championships. From 1946-55, Hall of Famer Otto Graham and his Cleveland Browns appeared in 10 straight championship games, winning seven. I don't even consider that a player record. That's a team stat. Also Mahomes Chiefs have won 3 and he's 28 years old. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are a few receivers today who can rival Rice in his prime but I can’t imagine another one playing at a high level for so long. Rice’s career is like ten straight 1,500 seasons from age 22-32 … then right more 1,000-yard seasons til age 40. Insane. I can’t imagine anyone coming close to his record even in a 17-game season.
