NFL Predictions Week 7: Which QBs Are Good for 300-Yard Passing Games?

Chris TrapassoOct 19, 2011

I have a feeling this pass-happy, shootout trend in the NFL isn't going anywhere. 

Quarterbacks are setting a new standard for passing yards this season, with 300-yard passing games happening more frequently than ever before. 

Here are a few games that should feature these now somewhat common aerial accomplishments...

Drew Brees vs. the Colts

Brees has thrown for 350-plus yards in four straight games. 

Need I say more?

Okay, I will. 

He faces a Colts secondary that's allowing over 250 yards through the air in each game. What's more, he's at home. The Saints are extremely dangerous inside the Superdome. 

Jimmy Graham should continue his terrific season. As usual, Brees will have no issue spreading the ball around to all of his wide receivers. 

I expect he'll throw for closer to 400.

Matt Stafford vs. the Falcons

Stafford was humbled in his team's Week 6 loss to the 49ers at home, but he's up against a far weaker Falcons secondary this Sunday. 

I expect Detroit to establish the run game early in this contest and think they'll be able to move the ball both on the ground and through the air. 

Atlanta is surrendering nearly 283 yards per game. Make no mistake, Stafford will find Calvin Johnson frequently.

This game could turn into a high-scoring affair, so I envision Stafford racking up a considerable amount of yardage.

Josh Freeman vs. the Bears

I really like what I saw from Freeman last week against the Saints. He wasn't afraid to throw into tight windows down the field and didn't simply checkdown after his first read was covered. 

The Bears surprisingly have one of the more susceptible pass defenses in the league and we've seen how much better Freeman plays in front of his home crowd. 

With problems at safety, the Bucs' youthful talent at wide receiver will lead to a tremendous day for No. 5.
