Year For The Records

This Year in the NFL, many of the old records are being broke by many new uprising stars. Legends such as Walter Payton, Dan Marino, John Elway and many others can kiss their names goodbye in teh record books. This year alone, already this season, seven records have been broken.
One of the most incredible records I beleive is the record held by Antonio Cromartie of the Chargers. He returned a missed field goal 109 yards for a San Diego touchdown. Another record which was shattered was the kickoff/punt return touchdown record. Devon Hester of the Bears already has ten in two seasons while the record is thirteen within twelve seasons. Hesters abilty to move and his agility has helped him to overcome this record. In addition to this, Favre broke Marinos touchdown record, and also most interceptions record. Tomlinson has broken the record for fastest to 100 touchdowns by a runningback in only 8 years! Peterson of the Vikings, a rookie, broke the single game rushing record with 296 yards in a single game.
It seems as if more and more records are being broken by the younger superstars of today's generation. Brady is on pace to break the single season throwing touchdown record as well. The list seems to be growing as the years go by, but theres only one main record that has never been touched, and that is the most rushing yards. Let's see which young superstar is next to break it?
