List of NFL Quarterbacks who have passed for 400 or more yards
- List of NFL Quarterbacks who have passed for 400 or more yards
In the National Football League, quarterbacks have passed for at least 400 yards 196 times in the regular season and 13 more in the postseason. Dan Marino has recorded the most 400 or more yard passing games, 15 including 2 in the post season. There have been a total of 9 games with over 500 yards passing. Norm Van Brocklin holds the record with 554 yards passing in 1951. Ken O'Brien is the only quarterback to have earned a perfect passer rating in a 400 or more yard game. Only 5 times has a game included 2 quarterbacks who passed for 400 or more yards.
These accomplishments are rare in the NFL. Before the start of the 2008 NFL season, there have been 14,121 regular season games played and 445 postseason games, [ESPN Pro Football Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition (Pg. 913)] meaning that NFL passers have had over 29,000 opportunities to reach the 400-yard mark.
This is a work in progress. Several QBs still need their entire passing stats. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
