All-Time Professional Passing Statistics (CFL/NFL)

All-Time Professional Passing Statistics (CFL/NFL)

During the 2006 Canadian Football league (CFL) regular season, Damon Allen surpassed Warren Moon to become the all-time passing yards leader in professional football league history. Although Allen was already the all-time leader for the CFL, Moon had overall better statistics when considering both the CFL and National Football League (NFL) statistics together since he played in both leagues.
