The 20 Best NFL Passing Seasons in the Last 25 Years

11. Drew Brees, New Orleans Saints (2009)

Like the two quarterbacks proceeding him, Brees makes his second appearance on this noteworthy list. However, this season was the one in which Brees and company took home the Lombardi Trophy, winning 13 regular season games and catching fire in the playoffs.

Rightfully so, Brees was named MVP of the big game. After all, he passed for 8.31 ANY/A while also completing 70.62% of his throws. His 109.6 passer rating and 34 touchdowns both led the entire NFL that season in what could've been an MVP year for the 30-year-old.
