I've updated the ALLTIME STATS THREAD
https://xfl.myfootballnow.com/forums/3/1098?page=1#7566I covered the regular season in the 25th anniversary thread so here are some postseason milestones and records reached.
PASSINGWhile passing numbers have been down league wide the past few seasons, we still had some great individual performances!
PLAYOFF GAMEQB Alvin Johnson (MEM)
He had the most passing yards in a playoff game ever when he threw for 630 yards against Vegas. His 6 TD passes ranks 3rd Alltime and 41 completions ranks 4th Alltime in a postseason game.
QB Robert Alvarez (DAK)
In XFL XXV versus Atanta, he threw 66 passes which ranks 6th Alltime in attempts in a postseason game.
QB Steven Stiner (TOR)
He was sacked 7 times in his playoff game versus Houston which ranks him 4th most in times sacked in a postseason game.
PLAYOFFS ALLTIMEWe have two quarterbacks who have moved up the Alltime leader board in multiple categories.
Ricardo Dobbs (BUF)
He is now 6th in yards (4,287), 9th in TD Passes (26), 5th in attempts (627), 6th in completions (369) and 6th in interceptions (20) in the postseason.
Robert Alvarez (DAK)
Despite playing just 5 seasons, he is 8th in yards (4,127), 6th in TD Passes (33), 9th in completions (339) and 6th in sacks (24) in the postseason. He is just entering his prime seasons and if Dakota can remain relevant over the next 5 years, he could make a run at some Alltime postseason passing numbers.
James Henry (VBA)
He moved into 3rd Alltime for times sacked (32) in the postseason.
RUSHINGRushing numbers have been on the rise over the past few seasons and we had a couple players leave a mark in both games and Alltime.
PLAYOFF GAMEIce Inveins (DAK)
He really put the Blizzard on his back and helped carry them to XFL XXV. His 172 yards rushing versus Houston in the AXC Conference Championship game ranks 6th Alltime in a postseason game. He carried the ball 34 times versus Oakland and 26 times versus Vancouver which ranks 2nd & 10th most Rush attempts in a playoff game. He also had a 72 yard run in the AXC Conference Championship game versus Houston which is the 10th longest run in the postseason.
PLAYOFF ALL TIMEIce Inveins (DAK)
His success during the 2042 postseason has moved him up many Alltime postseason rankings. He is now 2nd Alltime in rushing yards (1,057), tied for 1st Alltime in rushing TDs (7) and 1st in rush attempts (262) in the postseason Alltime.
Scott Clark (VBA)
He has played 5 seasons with Vegas but the teams current postseason run has quickly moved him up some rankings. He is now 8th Alltime in rushing yards (893) and 4th Alltime in rush attempts (192) in the postseason.
Van Gillespie (TOR)
He has moved into a tie for 4th Alltime in rushing TDs in the postseason.
RECEIVINGWith the decline in passing, receiving numbers have dropped across the league but some players still had Alltime Stats in games and one receiver has moved up the Alltime postseason ranks.
PLAYOFF GAMEJames Fain (MEM)
He has only been in the league 2 seasons but has already won back to back receiving triple crowns. He did have 14 receptions in a postseason game versus Vegas which ranks 4th Alltime in a postseason game.
Lee McCourt (HOU)
He had 12 receptions versus Toronto which ranks him 9th Alltime in a postseason game.
Gary Hunt (DAK)
He was traded to Dakota from Cincinnati in the last off-season and quickly became the "goto" target for Robert Alvarez. He had 12 receptions for 268 yards versus Vancouver in the Wildcard round which ranks 9th & 5th Alltime in a postseason game respectively.
Terrance McConkey (ATL)
He has become Atlanta's secret weapon as so much attention is focused on thier #1 rush offense. In XFL XXV, he made a catch & run for 92 yards which is the 3rd longest in a postseason game plus longest in the Title game.
PLAYOFF ALL TIMEMark Moore (DAK)
After 9 seasons and 9 postseason appearances with Dakota, the inevitable happened as he moves up the Alltime postseason rankings. He is 7th in receptions (85), 7th in yards receiving (1,112) and 5th in TD receptions (10) Alltime in the postseason.
RETURNSNot much to report here but we did have one player of note.
PLAYOFFS ALL TIMEGary Hunt (DAK)
The veteran receiver was re-energized after being traded to Dakota and he moved up to 8th Alltime in punt return yards in the postseason (99).
KICKERSpecial teams is an important part of the game and a place kicker may be the most important aspect.
PLAYOFF GAMEJason Floyd (MEM)
With Memphis's high powered offense, it keeps a kicker busy as he went 8/8 on XPs in a game versus Vegas which is the most ever in a postseason game. His 11 kickoffs in that game rank 2nd most Alltime in a postseason game.
PLAYOFFS ALL TIMETwo 13 year veterans have moved up the Alltime ranks in several categories.
Robert Combs (DAK)
He is 1st Alltime in postseason fieldgoals (62/74 83.8%), 1st in kickoffs (193) and 1st Alltime in postseason points (252). The only question remaining for his career is if he will be elected to the Hall of Fame.
Nathan McCall (PHI)
He moved up to 6th in fieldgoals (37/41 90.2%), 8th in kickoffs (86) and 7th in points (131) Alltime in the postseason.
PUNTINGThis is a part of the game which is much overlooked but it's a crucial aspect of the special teams which is ⅓ of the game.
PLAYOFF GAMEBoris Arthur (OAK)
He had a postseason game versus Dakota where he had 14 punts, 598 punt yards including 10 punts inside the 20 yard line. They rank 2nd, 4th & 1st Alltime in a postseason game.
Chad Babock (DAK)
He had 12 punts in XFL XXV versus Atlanta which ranks 7th Alltime in the postseason plus ties the Alltime Title game record. He also had 7 punts inside the 20 in the game which is 4th Alltime in a postseason game plus it sets a Title game record. One of his punts was 68 yards which ranks 6th longest in a postseason game and ties a Title game record. Ironically, he ties Chester Williams for longest punt in XFL Title game history which happened in XFL VIII with Atlanta who was playing Dakota.
Luke Padua (TOR)
He had 7 punts land inside the 20 in a game versus Buffalo which ranks 4th Alltime in a postseason game.
PLAYOFFS ALL TIMELeonard Israel (DAK/ATL)
