To the surprise of many, a lot of the NFL's long-standing records managed to withstand the first 17-game season. Eric Dickerson's fabled rushing record made it through another fall. Peyton Manning's records for pa sing yards and touchdown pa ses were also unscathed, while Michael Strahan saw ' pa s rusher match -- but not pa s -- his record for sacks in a season.While they made it through the 2021 season, Dickerson, Manning and company may not be as lucky in 2022. There are several records that are poised to fall in 2022, the second 17-game regular season in league history. Let's take a look at which single-season records could fall and the players who could break them.Current record holder: ( Tommy Tremble Jersey 1,964 yards in 2012)was incredibly close to breaking Johnson's record last season. The reigning Super Bowl MVP finished the 2021 season with 1,947 yards while also leading the NFL with 145 receptions. If he and quarterback Matthew Stafford are able to stay healthy, Kupp may very well become the NFL's first 2,000-yard receiver this fall.Current record holder: (149 in 2019)Kupp was just four receptions from matching Thomas' record last season. Along with his quick chemistry with Stafford, Kupp's remarkable hands were a big reason for last year's prolific numbers. He caught at least 80% of his targets in all but two games last season. Current record holder: Michael Strahan (22.5 in 2001)/T.J. Watt (22.5 in 2021)Watt matched Strahan's record despite mi sing two games due to injury. Along with tying the all-time sack record, Watt led the NFL in tackles for lo s for a second straight Clay Johnston Jersey year. He also forced five fumbles en route to winning his first Defensive Player of the Year award. Watt should once again be in position to break the record this season given the added depth the Steelers have at linebacker as well as on the defensive line.Current record holder: Eric Dickerson (2,105 in 1984)Dickerson's record may have been broken last year had not sustained an injury after rumbling for 937 yards in the season's first eight games. Henry is the frontrunner to break this record in 2021, but don't sleep on , the ' third-year back who won the league's rushing title last fall.

Current record holder: (485 in 2021)Brady broke Drew Brees' five-year-old record last season, and he may break his own record in 2022. He completed at least 20 pa ses in all but one game last season. Brady completed 41 pa ses in the ' regular season lo s to the , a team Brady and the Bucs will host on Nov. 6. Current record holder: (5,477 in 2013)Brady was relatively close to breaking his former rival's record last season, when he threw for a career-high 5,316 yards. Brady finished Cam Newton Jersey the year with more than 300 more pa sing yards than the league's second-leading pa ser, quarterback .Current record holder: (727 in 2012)Brady came to within eight completions of matching Stafford's record last season.

New Chargers cornerback , who picked off eight pa ses during his final year with the , should also be considered among the favorites to po sibly break Night Train's long-standing record. Current record holder: (66 yards in 2021)The ' All-Pro kicker hit a 66-yarder last year, so there's no reason to doubt that Tucker would try a 67-yarder if the opportunity presents itself this season. Tucker, a rookie when the Ravens won the 2012 Super Bowl, is coming off arguably his best season to date. He made nearly Phil Hoskins Jersey 95% of his field goals last year, included making each of his six kicks that were at least 50 yards.Current record holder: LaDainian Tomlinson (31 in 2006)This record is going to be tough to break, even with the extra game. That being said, there are a few players who are capable of breaking Tomlinson's record if they stay healthy. That list of players includes Taylor, Kupp, Chargers running back, and receiver .
