Top 20 Series. Stats don’t lie. Well, maybe in some cases they do. But not when it comes to the all-time career leaders. Longevity and sustained excellence are quite evident when reviewing the all-time leaders in multiple NFL career statistical categories we present for your viewing pleasure.
Each Tuesday throughout the NFL regular season, ProFootballHOF.com features the updated Top 20 leaders in four main categories (passing, receiving, rushing, and scoring). Now, we’re happy to fill your offseason football void with our expanded Top 20 lists. We send a special thanks to our friends at Elias Sports Bureau who helped in presenting our expanded Top 20 lists heading into the start of the 2014 NFL Season. | SEE ALL TOP 20 LISTS AT THE START OF 2015>>
