Herschel has the most all purpose yards in pro football history, if you take into account his time as a professional in the USFL plus NFL.


Warren Moon would have, far and away, the most passing yards under this metric -- along with many other passing records, I would guess.

Changed their name to the Astros when they moved into their new Astrodome.

And the Astrodome had a grass field when it opened in 1965. It wouldn't grow because the lenses of the roof were painted so players could catch pop fly's. Astroturf was put in the infield beginning of the '66 season and the outfield got replaced with turf later in the season.
