The Tennessee Titans, the home of running back Derrick Henry, averaged the second-most (143.2) in the NFL in that span, 32 yards per game fewer. The Ravens averaged 175.2 rushing yards per game, far and away the most in the league.
Under former offensive coordinator Greg Roman (2019-2022), Baltimore was the NFL's most run-first football team, bar none. New Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken While it's likely going to take at least another five to 10 years before someone throws for 6,000 passing yards in a season, here's the case for why Jackson could have a season that would place him on the single-season passing yards all-time list. In Jackson's defense, two of the top four highest passing yardage seasons have come in the last two years since a 17th game was added to the regular season: Tom Brady's 5,316 in the 2021 season (third-most all time) and Patrick Mahomes' 5,250 last season (fourth-most all time). I just want to do that because no one's ever done that before, and we have the weapons to do that. I'm not an individual, award type of guy. "I think I told someone, I want to throw for like 6,000 yards with the weapons we have. "I'm very eager," Jackson said when asked about the Ravens' 2023 season at the press conference for his new deal on Thursday. He's looking to become the first player in NFL history to throw for 6,000 yards, 523 more than Manning's current record. However, 2019 NFL MVP quarterback Lamar Jackson has bigger plans in mind than just 5,000 yards after signing the NFL's richest contract on Thursday - a five-year, $260 million deal.
Hall of Famer Peyton Manning's 2013 NFL MVP season stands above them all with an NFL record 5,477 passing yards in 16 games. Since 2010, there have been 13 more occurrences, including four more from Brees.
The football world didn't see another such campaign until 24 years later when New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees went for 5,069 in 2008. Hall of Famer Dan Marino was the first to do so when he recorded 5,084 yards through the air in 16 games during his 1984 NFL MVP season. Throwing for 5,000 passing yards in an NFL season used to be jaw-dropping.
