As several of you successfully guessed, the answer to last week's question is Dan Fouts. The San Diego Chargers quarterback set the record in back-to-back-to-back seasons starting in 1979. In 1981 Fouts threw for a career best 4802 yards, a record that would only stand 3 years until Marino came along in 1984. And to answer the question from some of our readers, Fouts did set the record in a 16 game season. The NFL transitioned to a 16 game season starting in 1978.
