New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning still stands alone. - Despite a considerable push from Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow and Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, no one has thrown for more yards in a single NFL postseason than Eli. - Manning’s all-time record, which was set in 2011, nearly came crashing down after a decade. But Stafford fell just 32 yards short of surpassing Eli’s total and if not for a couple drops along the way, may have done it. - With Super Bowl LVI now in the books, here’s how the NFL’s all-time single-postseason passing leaders stack up: - - Eli Manning (2011): 1,219 yards - Matthew Stafford (2021): 1,188 yards - Kurt Warner (2008): 1,147 yards - Joe Flacco (2012): 1,140 yards - Tom Brady (2016): 1,137 yards - - As far as Mahomes and Burrow, who each played well throughout the postseason this year, they finish with the following: - - Joe Burrow (2021): 1,105 yards - Patrick Mahomes (2021): 1,057 yards - - The NFL is very much a passing league now — more than it was in 2011 — so it stands to reason that Manning’s all-time record will soon fall. But at least for now, Easy-E remains at the tippy-top in this category (and many others) with all others looking up at him. - Follow the Giants Wire Podcast: - Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Google Podcasts - - - - - - - - - - - - - Email - - - - - Sign up - - - - - - - - Like this article? - Sign up for the Giants Wire email newsletter to get our top stories in your inbox every morning - - - - An error has occured - - - Please re-enter your email address. - - - - - - Thanks for signing up! - - - You'll now receive the top Giants Wire stories each day directly in your inbox.
