NFL: Every Team’s Career Passing Leader vs. Current QB
Tony Romo, Eli Manning and Ben Roethlisberger Will Soon Become Their Franchises' Leading Passers
Here’s a little NFL offseason post for those of you missing the game.
How about every team’s all-time passing leader?
And which current quarterbacks are poised to take over the franchise’s top slot? These QB’s are anywhere from one to four years away from taking the throne. They are signified below by the asterisk in the final column.
Will Tony Romo become the Cowboys’ all-time passing leader, surpassing Troy Aikman? It’s almost a given. Same for the Giants‘ Eli Manning overtaking Phil Simms and the Steelers‘ Ben Roethlisberger overtaking four-time Super Bowl champ Terry Bradshaw.
Even Jay Cutler is looking to take down Sid Luckman and become the nearly 100-year old Chicago Bears‘ all-time passer.
