The fact that Eli Manning will forever be 2-0 against Brady in the postseason and Mahomes will forever be 0-2 against Brady in the postseason is so wild.
I was a kid during most of these so I don’t remember much about it besides going back and looking up stats and stuff. Having someone break down these seasons like Brandon does is so entertaining
Drew Brees 5476, Brady 5235 Stafford 5038, Manning 4933, Rodgers 4643, Rivers 4624. All over 4500 yards and is the only year with three QBs passing for over 5000 yards. A incredible year for QBs
Weird that hasn't happened with you know Josh Allen Patrick mahomes Justin Herbert Joe burrow or even the quarterback for the eagles can't think of the name right now why have we had 5000 charged again is because defenses are much better now
I swear. I was a freshman in highschool this year, and living in chicago, everybody was silent untill that playoff game against the giants. I fr thought we were gonna repeat. The talent on that team, on both sides of the ball was just insane.
As a Giants fan 2011 was unforgettable. The ups and the downs culminating in beating the Pats again in the Super Bowl. I hope I could relive a season like that and 2007 again in my lifetime.
@@davidcornell7150 I always get on my Patriot fan friends about the Welker drop in 2011 and also the Asante Samuel dropped interception that could’ve sealed the 07 SB for y’all 🤣
In hindsight, the Giants ultimately paid the price for winning those two Super Bowls since then: 1-2 in the playoffs (2016, 2022), several losing seasons, and seasons where they had a good record but missed the playoffs, and Good Eli becoming Bad Eli for the majority of his career.
Some unmentioned records from this season: Eli broke the record for the most passing yards in a single postseason (1219) Drew Brees broke the record for the most yards in a combined regular&post season (6404) in only 18 games is mind blowing.
Thank you for reminding me about the Cowboys icing their own kicker. I had totally forgotten about that, but I was immediately transported back to my living room laughing hysterically. It’s one of the most Cowboys things the Cowboys have ever done
The 2011 season has a special place in my heart. I was a junior in high school that year. It was a great year for me and as a Packers fan despite the divisional lost to the Giants was a great season. The 2011 season overall was great as well. Good times.
Man I was the same age this was the season that made me hella into football! I made so much money betting the giants to win the Super Bowl with my classmates😂😂
I was about the same age as you... crazy time to be alive , these are the types of seasons that make someone a football fan for life! Been a hard-core fan literally since the 2011 season.
As a Giants fan, that hail mary was up there for an eternity, and I thought Gronk was going to dive and catch that tip. Still my favorite NFL season to this day.
Easily the Drew Brees MVP, Detroit Lions didn't look that good for several years of Stafford's tenure, not to mention he played during the time of MANY elite qbs. Ofc now there are still elite qbs, but a Lions Stafford 100% would get several prow bowls in a meh NFC qb list.
@@TopothetopYTI get that, even tho the Lions didn't look good at time, remember Stafford threw for 5,000 yards and 41 tds and didn't make the Pro Bowl, complete Robbery (I forget which season)
As a giaints fan going into his year of college you couldn't tell me anything. Eli manning was the best qb of all time. Damn the stats. We ACTUALLY WON!! I WAS DRUNK THE REST OF THE YEAR
Eli Manning was ripped to shreds by the media before that season started by claiming that he believed he was an elite QB. He then proceeded to completely carry the team with the worst ranked rushing attack and a bottom 5 defense to a Superbowl title by throwing over 4900 yards, leading six fourth-quarter comebacks, and breaking the record for most yards thrown in a single postseason. Say what you want about the rest of his career (mostly caused by playing behind a horrendous O-line for a decade), but for that season, he was absolutely elite.
2011 was great. 10yr anniversary of 9/11, a great draft class in all positions, the duo of Vronk and Hernandez was special. Victor Cruz was infectious, and the list goes on and on.
As a Chiefs fan who attended that Tebow 2 completion game I cannot tell you how many times I, and others, yelled "Two for nine. He completed two fucking passes AND WE LOST!" Still mind-blowing to this day.
I was 7 during this season, it was the first one that I actually payed attention to. My dad is from Boston so I am a Patriots fan, needless to say I had my 7 year old heart broken that year. But hearing these names and watching these clips is bringing back some insane nostalgia.
Jay Cutler was having his best season as a pro before he broke his thumb against the Chargers that season. The Bears were rolling too. I’m still not over it.
As a browns fan the 2011 season gave me one of my favorite playoff memories. That Tebow throw in the first time in history will always bring a smile to my face
Green Bay's lone loss to the Chiefs was a big reason why Romeo Crennel got to be their coach for 2012, after which he was fired and Kansas City then went after a new head coach, some guy named Andy. That stunning upset meant they didn't grab some coach in 2012 instead.

As a Pats fan I can’t stand Eli, but I can’t deny how clutch he was in those Super Bowls….my dad legit broke the TV after the second one lmao. Chucked the remote right at our new Flat screen 😂😂😂. Ah memories
Dammit, Perna. My hype meter was already off the scale before you put this out for the Giants, and then you've gone and done this. You monster. I love you.
I'm a Giant fan, and like every other football fan NOT from New England, I hated Brady and the Patriots. And yes, I hated all of their Super Bowl wins, but I love the fact that the Giants beat their undefeated asses, and ruin that season for them. And they were never able to win the Super Bowl against the Giants.
2011 was amazing year.......... I never lost hope in my Giants all year and when they beat the Pats and really pushd the packers hard nearly beating them in the regular season i knew it was going to be special The whole Eli HOF debate should have been over after this........lead a team with worst rushing offense in the league to a Superbowl victory he also one of the most clutch seasons ever having the most 4th quarter TD in a season......most passing yards and passing TDs in a single playoff run all of which I believe still stand to this day.... awesome season
For the next one of these, would you maybe consider doing a much older season? Like one from the early 2000s or even the ‘90s? 2004 might be interesting. Or one of the seasons where Aikmen’s Cowboys or Elway’s Broncos won it all. As someone who only started watching in the early 2010s, I’d love to get a sense of what these older eras were like on a week-to-week basis.
Lifelong Eagles fan here, and I'd just about forgotten that Vince Young was on our team for a cup of coffee. That season was a crazy trip, and I hate it, because it made me cheer for the Giants for the second time in four years. Seriously, the Patriots made a *solid* run at trying to take the most hated spot away from the Cowboys for me. It's almost like cheating for 20 years (or more, we don't know that they've stopped, they sure never did before) makes you everyone's enemy.
The 2012 Super Bowl was the first football game I had ever seen and if it wasn’t for that game, I probably wouldn’t be a football fan today. Crazy to think the 2011 season as a whole almost didn’t happen.
do not forget. EPO was used for WR´s for the last time before the Armstrong scandal in cycling and NFL teams pulling out of that method. fastes season for WR
Matthew Stafford has thrown for 5000 and 41 tds and 4900 and 41 tds and didn't make the pro bowl either year. Pro bowls should not be on hall of fame ballets because that's absolute bs
I'm glad you included a picture of the "SCABS SUCK" signs when talking about the Colts, because that is exactly what I refer Curtis Painter & Co. as. My mother and I pretty much referred to the team as the Indianapolis Peytons all year. Must've been a huge relief when Andrew Luck played so well so fast. And I hate to admit it, but my mother and I did indeed practically worship Tebow that year.
Steelers fan here, humble brag, we had the #1 pass defense (as well as total yards and scoring) in 2011 (and much of the Dick LeBeau 2004-2014 era). I remember the Steelers held TB12 to 198 yards that year, I think that was his lowest total of the year and PIT beat NE 25-17. Never faced any other elite QB's that year that I remember. That was one of the most enjoyable NFL seasons to watch.
Tim Tebow definitely had the weirdest thing about him with sucking for 3 quarters then suddenly playing well in the 4th quarter. I remember that and the playoff game against the Steelers, watched that game live and it was crazy seeing that ending. Also remember watching the 49ers-Saints game, that was still one of the wildest endings I’ve ever seen. As a Patriots fan it was upsetting whenever I saw that Mario Manningham caught the ball on the sideline, I just knew the Giants were going to find a way to win. Heck that was the second time out of four times where the Patriots were on the wrong end of some miraculous catches, the last two being Jermaine Kearse of the Seahawks and Julio Jones sideline catch of the Falcons, which in the Falcons game they wound up having their own great catch with Julian Edelman. Definitely I can say 2011 was one of the most memorable seasons in the NFL I’ve ever seen.
When the game is over in the early 3rd (and play outside in WI), that'll happen. Rodgers has never been a yardage machine, and 2011 was no different. I think Rodgers' play in 2011 is the best I've ever seen a QB play (regular reason, obviously).
This may sound stupid to Bronco fans in 2023 knowing what we know about how truly special four years of The Sheriff were, but on the day the Broncos signed Manning, and then traded Tebow, I immediately knew they would win another Super Bowl. But that isnt the crazy part. The crazy part was that I heard multiple old timer Broncos die-hards say to me, "Tebow just knows how to win, he deserves another year. Manning always chokes." Yes, I know it sounds stupid, but that is how fun it was to watch that goofy Bible Thumper run around like Indiana Jones for three quarters, and then turn into Dow Jones with a minute to go.
I know it’s HARD to admit because people tend to have such strong nostalgia for past decades when it comes to sports but the 2011 Saints had the absolute Greatest offense the NFL has had in its history the tape AND stats back that up. Brees was robbed of MVP because the NFL had just began to use its whole throat for Aaron Rodgers and the Saints had such a terrible defense and well…they’re the Saints and that 2011 team gets greatly overlooked. Nevertheless this was an amazing video! Subscriber earned 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
If I threw for 5476 yards and 46 tds AND won 13 games but still didn't win MVP that would be my 13th reason 😂. Aaron having an all time efficient season and goin 15-1 was the right pick tho, sucks for Brees
and then Matthew Stafford failed to even get a pro bowl out of his 5038 yards and 41 tds, what a wild season. I can only imagine Stafford as a kid thinking "and I'm gonna have over 5000 yards and over 40 TDs one season and be seen as a legend!" then it happens and he gets nothing out of it 🤣
I always look at Stafford's 2011 season as probably the most overshadowed 5,000 yard season ever(excluding Winston 2019). He had some incredible performances where his defense did not do anything. He threw for 520 yards and 5 TD's in that Week 17 game vs. Green Bay and STILL managed to lose.
Pretty much the perfect example of why Stafford never had any team success in Detroit. Detroit’s defense gave up like 27 ppg in all of Stafford’s time there, and their running game was always bottom five in the league. So basically, Stafford had to put up an average of 4 TDs a game with no running game just to be competitive.
2011 was such a magical year for the Lions (minus Suh's "antics"), and it felt like that it might lead to more than that in the playoffs And then they got 6 TDs thrown on them by Matt Effin' Flynn in the last regular season game, and most Lions fans, including myself, knew we stood no chance vs. the Saints the next week
great times. the last season NFl on pure Steriods and Epo. 2012 lance amstrong scandal made nfl teams step down on epo. running game went down after that
That Super Bowl is what we deserved in Indy. Finally get a Super Bowl & then it’s the wrong manning brother and satan himself in the game instead of Peyton and the Colts.
That was a fun year. Not just because Eli kicked Brady’s ass a second time, but Alex Smith finally got a competent coach and a decent team around him. I followed his college career and I really wanted him to have success in the NFL. Great series! Keep it up!
As a giants fan in 8th grade during the 2011 season, I cried like a baby that year. It was BEYOND magical. How the hell did our 9-7 giants beat the 15-1 packers, 13-3 49ers, and 13-3 patriots back-to back-to back in the playoffs with inferior rosters in every game. Eli was a GOD that year.
As a Rams fan I remember 2011 was the year reality kicked me right in the nuts. Went from ONE GAME AWAY from making the playoffs since 2006 to going 2-14. The highlight of that season for me was watching the Rams D destroy the Saints and seeing the Browns grasp defeat from the jaws of victory from us 😂
Dawg, I genuinely hope you never lose your passion for making these videos. Following your shit the last 2 years has brought me the most joy in sports programming since like Kenny mayne and Stuart Scott hosted sportscenter 🏆🏆🏆🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 And I’m a ravens fan. FUUUUUCK this season.
We've got a nice roster of great young QBs in the League now, but the stretch between '05 and '15 is when I watched the most football and it felt like QB play across the League just kept getting better and better.
The fact that Eli Manning will forever be 2-0 against Brady in the postseason and Mahomes will forever be 0-2 against Brady in the postseason is so wild.
As a chiefs fan it honestly hurts Mahomes will never get to say he beat Brady in the post season.
Brady never beat anyone his top 5 defenses did

When the game is over in the early 3rd (and play outside in WI), that'll happen. Rodgers has never been a yardage machine, and 2011 was no different. I think Rodgers' play in 2011 is the best I've ever seen a QB play (regular reason, obviously).
At 7:30, you gave notice to Ngata, Reed, and Lewis.
But no mention of DPOY in Terrell Suggs?
Brady did the same thing to Nick Foles when he beat them in the Superbowl
"Public Safety Advocate" Aaron Hernandez... I am now deceased 🤣
This may sound stupid to Bronco fans in 2023 knowing what we know about how truly special four years of The Sheriff were, but on the day the Broncos signed Manning, and then traded Tebow, I immediately knew they would win another Super Bowl. But that isnt the crazy part. The crazy part was that I heard multiple old timer Broncos die-hards say to me, "Tebow just knows how to win, he deserves another year. Manning always chokes." Yes, I know it sounds stupid, but that is how fun it was to watch that goofy Bible Thumper run around like Indiana Jones for three quarters, and then turn into Dow Jones with a minute to go.
Matt Moore and Chad Henne have Superbowl rings. 😂😂
I know it’s HARD to admit because people tend to have such strong nostalgia for past decades when it comes to sports but the 2011 Saints had the absolute Greatest offense the NFL has had in its history the tape AND stats back that up. Brees was robbed of MVP because the NFL had just began to use its whole throat for Aaron Rodgers and the Saints had such a terrible defense and well…they’re the Saints and that 2011 team gets greatly overlooked. Nevertheless this was an amazing video! Subscriber earned 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
If I threw for 5476 yards and 46 tds AND won 13 games but still didn't win MVP that would be my 13th reason 😂. Aaron having an all time efficient season and goin 15-1 was the right pick tho, sucks for Brees
and then Matthew Stafford failed to even get a pro bowl out of his 5038 yards and 41 tds, what a wild season. I can only imagine Stafford as a kid thinking "and I'm gonna have over 5000 yards and over 40 TDs one season and be seen as a legend!" then it happens and he gets nothing out of it 🤣
I forgot Eric Berry was afraid of Warpaint. 😂
26:12 remember thinking that was the greatest throw I’ve ever seen and it still is
The 2011 season made me an NFL fan. Haven't looked back since
Man Perna has really stepped up his content because I instantly click his videos when I see them
every video with stafford in it makes me that much more sad that we couldnt put together a single playoff win with him.
Oh jesus I saw the josh mcdaniels clip of him in rams gear 🤦♂️
Perna this style of video is fantastic. Hope you are proud of yourself, you’re doing a really great job!
Keep doing season recaps please and thanks
I thought Kyle Williams went into witness protection after those 2 fumbles... He won a ring with the broncos 🤯
R.I.P. Demaryius Thomas forever a bronco 🧡💙
20:37 AJ HAWK! AJ HAWK!
I always look at Stafford's 2011 season as probably the most overshadowed 5,000 yard season ever(excluding Winston 2019). He had some incredible performances where his defense did not do anything. He threw for 520 yards and 5 TD's in that Week 17 game vs. Green Bay and STILL managed to lose.
Pretty much the perfect example of why Stafford never had any team success in Detroit. Detroit’s defense gave up like 27 ppg in all of Stafford’s time there, and their running game was always bottom five in the league. So basically, Stafford had to put up an average of 4 TDs a game with no running game just to be competitive.
2011 was such a magical year for the Lions (minus Suh's "antics"), and it felt like that it might lead to more than that in the playoffs
And then they got 6 TDs thrown on them by Matt Effin' Flynn in the last regular season game, and most Lions fans, including myself, knew we stood no chance vs. the Saints the next week
The start of the Aaron Rodgers era of the nfl after winning the SuperBowl in February 2011
I love these recaps, very well organized, and obviously the nostalgia factor
Brandon "let's make videos from a time my broncos didn't stomp my soul" Perna
great times. the last season NFl on pure Steriods and Epo. 2012 lance amstrong scandal made nfl teams step down on epo. running game went down after that
That Super Bowl is what we deserved in Indy. Finally get a Super Bowl & then it’s the wrong manning brother and satan himself in the game instead of Peyton and the Colts.
That was a fun year. Not just because Eli kicked Brady’s ass a second time, but Alex Smith finally got a competent coach and a decent team around him. I followed his college career and I really wanted him to have success in the NFL.
Great series! Keep it up!
Loved it! Some more seasons please
Yes, a tragic end for the Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl 50 24-10 loss to Denver
I’m a giants fan and I remember watching these playoffs with my dad, I don’t think I’ve ever seen him that emotional before or since lol
As a giants fan in 8th grade during the 2011 season, I cried like a baby that year. It was BEYOND magical. How the hell did our 9-7 giants beat the 15-1 packers, 13-3 49ers, and 13-3 patriots back-to back-to back in the playoffs with inferior rosters in every game. Eli was a GOD that year.
This series is so Good it really should be a show on ESPN. Like 20 for 20. An hour long special for each season hosted by BP. Would be amazing
So close to my dream Superbowl between my Niners and the Pats...
As a Rams fan I remember 2011 was the year reality kicked me right in the nuts. Went from ONE GAME AWAY from making the playoffs since 2006 to going 2-14. The highlight of that season for me was watching the Rams D destroy the Saints and seeing the Browns grasp defeat from the jaws of victory from us 😂
"MID!!!" I don't know if Perna's a wrestling guy but that clip was appreciated greatly
That Eli Double Bird image from the MNF streams os legendary.
Dawg, I genuinely hope you never lose your passion for making these videos. Following your shit the last 2 years has brought me the most joy in sports programming since like Kenny mayne and Stuart Scott hosted sportscenter 🏆🏆🏆🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
And I’m a ravens fan. FUUUUUCK this season.
We've got a nice roster of great young QBs in the League now, but the stretch between '05 and '15 is when I watched the most football and it felt like QB play across the League just kept getting better and better.
