Seahawks Career Passing Leaders

by A.J. Coltrane

Because it came up today — the Seahawks career passing leaders:

Rank Player Career Yards
1 Matt Hasselbeck 29434
2 Dave Krieg 26132
3 Jim Zorn 20122
4 Rick Mirer 9094
5 Jon Kitna 7552
6 Warren Moon 5310
7 Seneca Wallace 3547
8 John Friesz 2971
9 Trent Dilfer 2560
10 Kelly Stouffer 2333
11 Jeff Kemp 1735
12 Stan Gelbaugh 1426
13 Steve Myer 851
14 Dan McGwire 745
15 Gale Gilbert 703
16 Brock Huard 667
17 Charlie Whitehurst 507

There’s one guy in the top 10 I *never* would have guessed:   John Friesz.

For some reason, *this* image came up when searching for Gino Toretta.

Jeff Kemp didn’t quite make the top 10, though I thought he might.

Other notables:

Gino Toretta #26.

Steve Largent #27.

Norm Johnson #29.

And the fewest yards, greater than zero:  Ricky Watters.  1 yard.  #34.

  1. I don’t know which is “scariest”:

    Mirer at #4.

    Kitna at #5.

    Stouffer at #10. Remember, he cost the Seahawks two first round picks. In return the Seahawks received 2,333 passing yards. The fact that he flopped also meant that the owner pushed for a new quarterback. The owner liked Dan McGwuire, and Seattle flushed *another* first round pick. Ouch.

    Interesting note on Friesz and Wallace: Despite being #7 and #8 in career yardage, they only led the team in passing *once* apiece. The top 10, with how many times they led the team:

    Hasselbeck: 9 times
    Kreig: 9
    Zorn: 7
    Mirer: 3
    Kitna: 2
    Moon: 2
    Wallace: 1 (He led them in 2008(!))
    Friesz: 1
    Dilfer: 0
    Stouffer: 0

    Stan Gelbaugh is the only other quarterback to lead the team in passing — 1 time. That’s pretty remarkable, as he only had 1,426 career yards for Seattle.

    I’m guessing in 20 years people will say: “Seneca Who??”
