Content:  4,000 yards passing in a season was once considered a rare feat but has lost a bit of significance over the years. During the 14-game era, only Joe Namath passed for over 4,000 yards in a season with 4,007 yards passing in the 1967 AFL season. During the 1980s and 1990s, 4,000 yards became the standard for the league leaders in the NFL. Over the last decade, 4,000 yards has become almost commonplace in the NFL for good quarterbacks. In the 2016 season alone, 13 quarterbacks passed for over 4,000 yards. This may be a result of less emphasis being placed on the running game and rule changes that serve to offer greater protection to quarterbacks. Peyton Manning has had the most 4,000 yard seasons (14).
