Kurt Warner (St. Louis Rams) holds the record for passing yards in a Super Bowl with 414 yards against Tennessee in Super Bowl XXXIV. He is also second on the list with 365 yards against New England in Super Bowl XXXVI. Donovan McNabb (Philadelphia Eagles) and Joe Montana (San Francisco 49ers) are tied for third* with with 357. http://www.nfl.com/superbowl/records/superbowls/player/passing * UPDATE : Your answer is partially correct. Warner does in fact hold the 1st and 2nd highest yardage in Super Bowl history (414 vs the Titans and 377 vs the Steelers) But the person that holds the 3rd highest yardage game in Super Bowl history is...you guessed it...Kurt Warner (365 vs Patriots)
It has been done 10 times by 8 different players, all since 2001.
