hmmm how many are in total in a football season anyway?

 I mean, Johnson did 1626 in 13 games
is that the total, are there more games

in order to surpass wingspaners  <-- somehow I think that' snot his name anyway

it'd be the difference between the quantities +1, divided by 3
that'd be the average

2105 - 1626 = 479 (he needs 479 more points)
the average for 3 games can be found by dividing by 3... 
479/3 = 159.66 rounds to 160

check..
2105 = 1626 + 3(160)
2105 = 1626 + 480
2105 = 2106

so basically, he would have to average at least 160 per game for the last 3 games to surpass the record
