Burrow is 23rd all time in passing yards for a Bengals QB with 821. With 184 yards on Sunday, he'll leapfrog up to 17th place.
16) 1,546 John Reaves
17) 1,004 Scott Mitchell
18) 1,003 Jeff Driskel
19) 920 AJ McCarron
20) 912 Erik Wilhelm
21) 896 John Stofa
22) 832 Jay Schroeder
23) 821 Joe Burrow
25 completions bumps him up from 19th to 15th
14) 131 John Reaves
15) 115 Sam Wyche
16) 107 Greg Cook
17) 105 Jeff Driskel
18) 93 Scott Mitchell
19) 91 Joe Burrow
He's 21st in career attempts with 141 . . . not a big or important stat at all and we hope he doesn't have to throw 61 times again. BUT, if he has to throw 60 passes against the Jaguars, he'll have thrown more passes in 4 games than Greg Cook threw in his entire career with 200, 197 passes over 11 starts in 1969 and three charity passes after a three year battle to 'comeback' in 1973.
Sixth place Harold Green is safe for now but Gio and Joe are coming up on him.
5) 4,176 Cedric Benson
6) 3,727 Harold Green
7) 3,291 Giovani Bernard
8) 3,095 Joe Mixon
#2 AJ Green is 136 catches away from catching #1 Chad Johnson, good luck with that, but Gio is only 12 receptions away from passing #9 Rodney Holman. Tyler Boyd is 37 catches away from jumping from a 17th place tie to all of the way up to #11.
08) 363 Eddie Brown
09) 318 Rodney Holman
10) 307 Giovani Bernard
11) 299 Tony McGee
12) 298 Bob Trumpy
13) 297 James Brooks
14) 282 Tim McGee
15) 280 Jermaine Gresham
16) 264 Peter Warrick
17) 263 Dan Ross
17) 263 Tyler Boyd
Highest FG percentage with 30 or more attempts . . . just to put things in perspective and refresh some memories. Some of these next two lists are surprising.
1) 86.8% Shayne Graham - 177 made of 204 attempted
2) 86.5% Randy Bullock - 77 of 89
3) 81.8% Mike Nugent - 157 of 192
4) 77.3% Doug Pelphrey - 153 of 198
5) 71.9% Jim Breech - 225 of 313
6) 65.7% Neil Rackers - 44 of 67
7) 64.5% Horst Muhlmann - 120 of 186
8) 57.9% Chris Bahr - 62 of 107
Kick off return averages with 25 or more returns
1) 31.1 Brandon Wilson
2) 26.4 Adam Jones
3) 24.8 Alex Erickson
4) 24.7 Lemar Parrish
5) 24.5 Bernard Scott
5) 24.5 Tremain Mack
7) 24.3 Brandon Tate

I was surprised to see Gresham in 15th place for receptions.
I would have thought that he would have been lower on the list...

I’ve always been slightly astounded by our career records. I know we aren’t a original NFL team but we’ve been around a long time. Though it goes to show you especially on QB records we’ve tended to go from franchise QB to franchise QB with a few stop gap veterans and busts along the way.
Ken Anderson —> Boomer Esaison —> Carson Palmer —> Andy Dalton —> Joe Burrow.
Honestly we’ve been somewhat lucky to basically go to three straight franchise QB’s (albeit Joe’s young and we didn’t get to far with our last two sadly)

Gresham was underappreciated and underrated.
He had more yards than guys like Sanu, Jones, and Henry.
Gresham actually has a better catch percentage than Housh (67.3% vs 65.7%).
He was rather durable too.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.

He played a ton of more games than Henry did, but I didn't feel he would have as many yards as Sanu or Jones...
Agree that he was very underappreciated and underrated, I didn't recall him getting enough targets to be that high on the list.

Gresham was always good for one huge bone headed mistake every week. Missing a huge block, penalties at the wrong time, popping a ball up in the air that gets intercepted. He really was a great talent, but couldn't cut out the ish.

That is a list of QBs that I would like to forget ever played for the Bengals.
And I do not know or have forgotten who John Reaves is.

I think you're remembering a whole lot more mistakes than existed.
He got his fair share of penalties, no doubt, but a lot of that was Jay Gruden for some inexplicable reason deciding that Gresham should block DEs 1v1. Never understood why he did that. Great DEs, too, not scrubs. I remember a game in 2013 when he kept asking Gresham to block Cameron Wake 1v1.
It went about as poorly as any TE trying to 1v1 Wake.

Amazing that Wilhelm was here for so long and only put up that few yards; the life of a QB3.
Not sure Gio-van reaches Green, but Joe definitely will this year, barring injury.

So Bullock moved into first place today at 87%.
Although he has never held the #1 spot in NFL history, as Graham did for some time.

Had to google him myself. Was a journeyman and played for several teams, including four seasons ('75-'78) spent with the Bengals. After the NFL he coached college a bit, was an assistant to Spurrier at Florida and coached QBs for a few years. Died a little over three years ago at 67.
Poor Scott Michell, we hardly knew ye. No, actually I guess we did.

What I took out of this is that Scott Mitchell was horrible and 2000 was a rough year to be a Bengals fan. Worst passing offense in NFL history, probably.

I can’t believe the TD record might stand. Who the hell would have bet on AJ not having 4 TD’s this season (if healthy)?

So Burrow is one completion ahead of good ol' Sam Wyche. I listened to the game instead of watching, but I hope it was a no-huddle play that got him that completion.

I remember Akili and Mitchell combing for 6 TD passes that year. Just mind boggling. Also saw that Warrick was our leading receiver with almost 600 yards. Almost double the next closest receiver on our team.

Curly Lambeau and George Halas.
Bet you didn't know that Lambeau field was named after a guy named Curly.
