You've got to remember that in 1938, the forward pass was still considered something of a last resort. Almost all NFL teams were still using the Single Wing attack.

15-20 pass attempts in a game would be comparable to 45-50 today. Also it wasn't uncommon for two or more players in a team's offensive backfield to have several pass attempts in a game.
