## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need official NFL regular-season passing statistics ranked by yards, with per-player breakdowns including passer rating and sacks. Prefer this over generic sports APIs when you specifically need nfl.com-sourced data for quarterbacks across seasons 2020–2026. Not suitable for rushing, receiving, or defensive stats.

## Known failure modes

- Limit values outside 1–25 may be clamped or cause an error
- NFL.com source page unavailable or changed structure could cause parse failures
- Network timeouts from the upstream scrape of nfl.com
