3 Sacks allowed is untouchable along with 6 ties obviously.

Derrick Thomas' 7 sacks in one game

[/ QUOTE ]

I remember watching this game as a kid. On the last play of the game Thomas had Dave Krieg in his arms for what would have been sack number 8 but Krieg somehow broke the tackle and threw a ~50 yard TD to win the game. I'd love to see it again on ESPN classic.

FWIW, 8 times a team has intercepted 8 passes or more in a game, and as recently as 2001 a team had 7. So I don't think the record of one QB being intercepted 8 times is as impossible as some of you think.

Surprised Earl Campbell's 4 200 yard games in one season isn't getting more attention considering that only one person has more 200 yard games in his ENTIRE CAREER(OJ Simpson with 6).

Also Don Hutson's 8 seasons of leading the league in TDs...the next closest is 3 and only 3 guys ever have that(J Brown, Emmitt, and Lance Alworth).


Tough to imagine any team winning 14 straight games, yet alone one led by a QB making his first 14 career starts.

Tom Landry's 20 straight winning seasons seems pretty insane to me.


I didn't realize that there was no OT in the past, so I kinda wish I didn't include the 6 tie one then, as its only untouchable due to rule changes.

Willie Parker had two 200-yard games last season.

If not for garbage time, he could have had more.

This record is very touchable.

Jamal Lewis has three career 200-yard games.

Parker has three career.

Tiki Barber had five career, three in 2003.

LDT has four career.

Fewest Yards Allowed in a season: 1539 by 1934 Chicago Cardinals.

That's untouchable in a 16 game season.

These two are impressive but sort of arbitrary I mean what if Barry Sanders instead of doing 14 straight 100 he did 180 yards 7 in a row than 99 than 180 7 in a row again. He wouldn't have either of those records broke despite having much better production

reminds me of Dimaggio's 56, Ted Williams was a better hitter during the streak

A lot of those records are never going to be touched. No team is ever going to make and lose 5 straight Super Bowls.
