If Warren Moon was to combine his CFL and NFL stats he would rank second in the NFL

How great was Warren Moon?  Well the Hall of Famer was a legend in two leagues.  How he was looked over by the NFL is just asinine, but it happened. The former Washington Huskie great was overlooked by every NFL team, and found a home North of the Border. 

Warren Moon played six years with the Edmonton Eskimos before joining the Houston Oilers in 1984. Just imagine if he had played his entire career in the NFL. In the CFL, Moon had 21,228 yards passing while he threw for 49,325 in his NFL career. The total of 70,553 would rank only behind Brett Favre.
