Tom Brady #LFG Award: “I think records are meant to be broken. Try to just set this one high that makes the next guy harder for him to break.”

Why Setting the Bar High Matters

As Tom Brady remarked upon awarding Dak Prescott his #LFG Player of the Game, records aren’t just static milestones—they reshape expectations for future franchise quarterbacks.

When Tony Romo retired with 248 touchdowns, it eclipsed Hall of Famer Troy Aikman’s 165 and Danny White’s 155. Now, Prescott pushing beyond 250 and potentially toward 350+ means any future Dallas QB will require at least a decade of uninterrupted elite health and 25+ touchdowns per season just to enter the conversation.

How to Interpret the Trajectory Chart

  • The Solid Curve: Represents verified regular-season passing touchdowns across total career starts and appearances with that franchise.
  • The Dashed Projection: Models the forward trajectory based on your selected TD/game rate and scheduled 17-game season availability.
  • The Frontier Gap: Demonstrates the cumulative distance an incoming rookie quarterback would have to erase at average league scoring rates.
