Title: Despite the loss Wuerffel sets a huge record Post by: Paul-London on May 02, 2008, 04:11:16 AM With the Machine losing and falling to 4-3 it wasnt a good time to be a Montreal fan, that is apart from Wuerffels huge touchdown strike. Wuerffel was tied with Pat Barnes for the all time record with 190 but his throw to TE Werner Hippler set a new all time record, his 191st of his career.
Wuerffel is in this 14th season, hardly any QB's in history (Apart from QB David Archer and Jason Garrett) have played 15 years. Will he retire at the end of this season ? "I dont know" said Wuerffel, "I'm still having fun and I think we're playing well, I'm close to a lot of records as well so I 'may' come back for one final season, we'll see how this year goes" he said in an interview. Hardly any QB's have played into a 15th season, Wuerffel however is the leagues all time best QB and while he still plays at a great level he will surely want to continue playing ? But on the other hand retirement might sound good to Wuerffel who would retire at the top. He needs 9 touchdown passes in the last 7 games to reach 200 and needs 1,737 yars to break the all time passing yardage record. It could be very close on both accounts to beat those records this year. |
