jimster Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Texans QB Ties Consecutive Completions Record http://sports.iwon.com/news/11192006/v2534.html Nov 19, 3:50 PM (ET) Email this Story HOUSTON (AP) -Houston quarterback David Carr tied an NFL record with 22 consecutive completions Sunday on the same field where Mark Brunell set the record earlier this season. Carr completed 22 straight against Buffalo before throwing incomplete to Andre Johnson with 5:44 left in the game. Brunell completed 22 in a row in Washington's 31-15 win over the Texans at Reliant Stadium on Sept. 24. The previous record was 21 straight completions by Rich Gannon for Oakland in 2002. Carr tied Brunell's record on a short pass to Wali Lundy for no gain with 6:19 left. Carr's first pass of the game was intercepted by Buffalo's Nate Clements. He was 1-for-3 against Buffalo, then began the streak with a 14-yard completion to Eric Moulds in the first quarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AsburySkinsFan Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 That must mean that Carr is really really good, right.............isn't that what that means............:paranoid:...............right? Or maybe that is a stat that meant nothing when Mark did it too. Hmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedskinzOwnU Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Good. That confirms that fact that Brunell's 19 consecutive screen passes with the occasional semi-risky throw was no real feat. I guess that makes this an all around bad week for brunell :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm Brunell broke Gannon's record, Gannon broke a record set the year before by Tom Brady. - Say what you want, but that's pretty good company.

Add up the total yards gained in each of the records, Gannon's, Carr's, Brady's, and Brunell's. My bet is that Brunell has the fewest yards of any of them.

Aghar Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Our offense does nothing as usual 172 yards of total offense before our last "doesn't matter drive"... our defense sucks as usual giving up 359 total yards, including 130 to a RB you didn't have that much in his last three games total ( sound familiar? it sounds ie Travis Henry) and you choose to hammer another nail in an already dead horse. What a fan! :doh: **NEWS FLASH** Brunell's on the bench and this team is STILL not good at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praise_gibbs Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 David Carr is actually a good QB... when he isn't laying on his back from a sack. It is just ironic though.. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tastes Like Chicken Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Wow. Well, Brunell still 'co-holds' the record. So his place in history is still secure. Brunell comes before Carr alphabetically, so his name will still be mentioned first when it comes to that record. Yay, Mark! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bet is that Brunell has the fewest yards of any of them. nope. Carr had fewer on les completions which just goes to show you that that record meant nothing. The only reason why that performance was even talked about because it was 22 in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDSKINZ-RIDEORDIE Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Did he have more passing yards then Mark did in his game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsciambi Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Brunell was 24/27 for 261 yards, 1 TD, 0 INT Carr was 25/30 for 223 yards, 0 TD, 1 INT. I think the stats for the 22 completions in a row is what you really want to know though (i.e. who had the most yards on those 22 completions).
