That year, he set a Rams single-season record with 310 pass attempts, also led the Canada West Conference in pass completions (176) and yards (2308). Mueller threw for a Rams postseason record with 470 passing yards in the team's Canada West semifinal game at Saskatchewan on November 7.[1]

In 2010, Mueller once again started all eight of the Rams regular season games and the team's one playoff game.

He was injured at the beginning of that drive and missed the team's next two games. In the Rams' Canada West Semifinal win on November 2 against Saskatchewan, Mueller was named the Canada West and CIS Offensive Player of the Week after completing 21 of 32 passes for 393 yards and three touchdowns.[1]

Mueller finished his career as the Rams' all-time leader in pass completion rate (62.1%), second on the team's all-time list in career pass completions (511) and passing yards (6522), and third in touchdown passes (34).[1]
