Chicago Bears Quarterbacks

[Halas Hall]

I read a crazy stat in today's Chicago Sun-Times and was reminded of this thread.

C.J. Stroud has passed for 2,626 yards this season, with 15 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. This is more passing yards than any Bears quarterback has ever thrown in any nine-game stretch.

Some context:

Stroud does not hold the Houston record. The Houston record is a tie between DeShawn Watson and Matt Schaub at 2,792.

Bears record is held by Erik Kramer who set it in 1995 at 2,446. Yes it is the lowest team record. Next lowest is Steve Beuerlein of Carolina at 2,642, or 196 more yards. All time record is Drew Brees at 3,278. So it's 636 yards from team #1 to team #31, then another 196 yards from team #31 to team #32.

Five of the current team records were set prior to Kramer's 1995 performance: Dan Marino, Joe Montana, Ken O'Brien, and Warren Moon with both the Oilers and Vikings. At the time, Kramer's record for the Bears was better than that of the Raiders (Stabler), Steelers (Bradshaw), and Archie Manning (Saints.) Also the Panthers and the Jaguars, but those teams were only in their first year. That's it. So even in the time it was set, it was a below average performance for a record and has only gotten worse.

Wow. Great knowledge drops there. And to add a bit more context to this topic, those of us who remember Erik Kramer would have guessed that he would more likely been part of a thread named, "Detroit Lions Quarterbacks."

Also, I think Johnny Lujack might still hold the Bears single game passing record - which was the NFL record until Norm Van Brocklin's famous day. Is that still the team record?
