The team on offense can make progress during the play by advancing the ball from the line of scrimmage.
Progress lost via quarterback sacks are classified differently, depending upon the league and/or level of football.
Some definitions of individual total offense give credit to both the passer and receiver for passing yards.
Case Keenum, B. J. Symons, and David Klingler hold the total offense career, single-season and single game records.
[3][4] In the NFL, Patrick Mahomes holds the single season record for total offense with 5,420 yards in 2022.
