Since the season didn't end and the trades over i decided to fill in with a statistical article of our QB's and Running Backs. The first position is QB. Drew Brees leads overall with 514 attempts and 363 completions which gives him a 70.6 completion percentage. Behind him is Brett Farve with his 68.4 completion percentage. He's thrown 4202 and 33 touchdowns. Phillip Rivers is third with his longest pass being 81 yards and averaging 266 yards a game. Fourth would be Aaron Rodgers who took Brett Farves place on the packers. He's got a 64.7 completion percentage. Our boy here averages 8.20 per pass. Finally at fifth we have Ben Roethlisburger with a 66.6 pass completion percentage (sign?) and averages 289 yards per game. Our next important offensive player is the running back. Chris Johnson maybe one of the best rushers EVER ran 2006 through this season and ran his longest rush at 91 yards. Up next is Steven Jackson for St. Louis. He's got 324 attempts and has 10 rushes over 20 yards. Third is Thomas Jones who rushed 64 first downs and averages 4.2 yards per rush attempt. Second to last is Maurice Jones-Drew who has 312 attempts and gained 1391 yards last season. Last but not least is Adrian Peterson.
