It’s a combo of him being underrated and with other QBs having incredible seasons. However, one of Rodgers MVP seasons should have went to Brees but the media loved Rodgers
In those days, if your name wasn't Manning, Brady or Rodgers, you didn't really get a lookin unless you were a RB. Between 2003 and 2014, those 3 won 9 of the 12 MVP awards. 2003 Manning Tied for MVP with Steve McNair, Shaun Alexander won in 2007, LaDainian Tomlinson in 2007, and Adrian Peterson in 2012. After that it's all QBs: Cam Newton, Matt Ryan, Brady again, Mahomes, Jackson, Rodgers, Rodgers, Mahomes, Jackson.
@drewmorrison They kept moving the goal post. I agree that other QBs had incredible seasons at the same time Brees did but going 13-3 and leading the league in yards, TDs and completion percentage should be enough.
Not saying he's underrated by any means, but I feel like Drew Brees isn't talked about enough when it comes to best QBs conversation. He may have only won a single Super bowl, he may not have any regular season MVPs (which he definitely should have at least 1), and he doesn't have the most All-pro selections, but man... for a guy who only stands at MAYBE 6'0 tall, he is definitely one of the best passing QBs ever. This video alone proves it. Being the only other player in history to amass over 80k yards only behind Tom Brady is crazy. I don't think he's underrated but he's definitely under appreciated in my opinion.
Brees was cursed by inconsistent defenses. Every time they just had to make one stop they couldnt. Always some last second collapse. And literally last second.
@@-PURPLE-HEADnot if only 9 dudes have ever done it. If it were normal by now, we’d see a 5000 yard season out of dudes like Derek Carr or Daniel Jones.
@@alatreon7451 4 of those guys have done it the past 4 years though and like 15 others were just 500 yards shy which is less than 28 ypg. Carr had 4,800 in 2021, but yeah I’d be shocked if Jones did it.
It’s crazy how it kind of rebounds and defenses adapt. We have some seasons with guys breaking out then other seasons where the league leader in passing is 4400 yards. Even in a 17 game season now for 3 years we haven’t seen a 5000 yard passer
@drewmorrison I think Justin Herbert passed for 5000 yards 2 years ago. But you're right in the passed 4 years or so passing yardage has plateaued a bit which I don't mind at all. Even Herberts year only passed for a little over 4700 through 16 games I think. And if you only count through 16 games last year no QB eclipsed 4500.
@scruffd0g193 just remember that was a lockout season where the league admitted that defenses were way behind offenses in terms of schemes. That's why you haven't seen a year like it sense.
@jefferymartin8782 Uhh..that’s some ignorance there because pass interference existed in 84. If anything Marino still benefited from passing rule change from 78.
Dan Marino and Peyton are tied for the best 5,000 passing yard seasons in NFL history, but I'll give the edge to Dan Marino because he led quarterbacks in all of the statistics in the 1980's decade, which is incredible.
Without a doubt shows how ahead of his time Marino was. Was the first ever to do it and didn't happen again for another 24 years!!! This with QBs named Kelly, Moon, Elway, Warner.
Because bress sucked. His teams sucked. And a lot of his numbers were in garbage time to get his 5k yards. He set the season record on a losing record team. Only one Super Bowl appearance that was marked and followed up with many punishments for dirty game plan that then changed the league to what it is today.
@@ryaj2356 these games are a team sport, that’s really why you can’t judge a single player too harshly, because you’re game still comes down to who knows how many other men are gonna be on the field that day. your offense could put up 3tds a game but if your defense always giving up 4 there’s not much you can do
I always put an asterisk next to 2011 cuz of the lockout that lasted through training camp. Guys admit that put the defense behind the 8 ball all season which is why 10 dudes passed for 4500+ and 3 went for 5000+.

QB numbers today are not because the QBs are more athletic. It's because of rules changes. When Marino did it it was unobtainium. It literally would be like throwing for 6000 yards today. Most QBs simply don't possess the mental acuity, and technique to do it.
Analytics basically tells teams to throw most of the time. There aren’t many great running backs in the league anymore. Most teams are very poor at running the ball.
@@Relayer6a Passing is more exciting to watch. The NFL wants teams to score more points to keep ratings up.

Far worse teams to make deep playoff runs compared to others. He carried that 2019 team. You guys weren’t saying Bucs were a top defense in 2020, short team gold fish memories right there. Don’t worry they got Tom Brady vs Media during that Super Bowl run.
2011 was the year of the qb Brady Brees Stafford all with 5k Rodgers with 45-6 Eli was like 30 yards away from 5k The only issue with 2011 is that it was missing The Sherrif.
To be honest, the Marino one is still the most impressive, considering the rules at the time, and CBs like Lester "The Molester" Haynes flat out mauling WRs when it was still legal. 😃 This from a Pats fan since 1983 (my mate who got me into the sport is a Dolphins fan)
I watch those old clips and realize why the NFL changed the rules. Guys from that era have scrambled brains. And changing the rules to give offense the advantage helps ratings. Casual fans want to see scoring, not their qb get his head knocked off.
Big Ben is my favorite QB to date. I was in 6th grade his rookie year and that's when I really started to love the game. Steelers were my team and we only lost one game that year and lost the the AFC championship. Next year we won the superbowl.
I actually tried to find a high quality image of him without his helmet on (also looking in the correct direction) , but the only 4k or 1080 images were with his helmet on!
It's wild that Big Ben made it to 5k. I'm a Steelers fan, I watched his whole tenure, I love that big lug and his big arm. But the only reason he threw the ball so much was because the running game was really dismal - 31st in rush yards, but 4th in total offense! I love to see Ben throw a TD, and he's a great gunslinger and awesome comeback guy. But he was never a Brees or Manning or Brady in a well oiled offense that just keeps marching down the field. He was always a "throw it and see what happens" guy. It shouldn't surprise anyone that the 2018 season, where Mahomes was MVP with 5k yards and the Chiefs make a deep run, Ben was out of the playoffs and the considering retirement.
That Drews picture is in the back of a group he is the President over and in fact should be called the "Drew Brees club", really sums up a lot about Drew Brees and how underated/over looked he is. It is exactly that kind of thing.
What does marino passing yards have to do with the kevel of qb athleticism today? That makes no sense. Plus i dont think the level of qb play today is better than the 80's as you said. They may be less risky today and more picky with when they throw but guys in the 80's could sling itjust as fast and far as today.
The main takeaway seems to be, whether it’s FIVE hundred yards a game, or FIvE thousands yards a season, it’s like being Icarus, flying too close to the sun… It’s all glorious until the sudden drop… Mahomes winning the Super Bowl in the same season is like Terrell Davis and his 2000 yard season when he also won the championship… Both incredibly rare feats… 🤔
Marino accomplishing this is way more impressive then all the other guys who did it in an offensive biased league where defense has so many things going against them.
God I miss Marino. He was so far ahead of the rest of the league and would have absolutely excelled in today video game, offensive dominated NFL. Throw Dan Fouts into the same category, as he was doing what Marino accomplished a few years earlier. Today’s NFL is heavily tilted towards favoring the offense (especially the QB and receivers) and limiting what the defenders can do. It’s almost a joke what defenders can’t do vs what was allowed a couple of decades ago.
I remember looking up qbs with 5000+ yards in a season and being genuinely flabbergasted that the pick king himself jameis winston had a 5000 yard season, easily the funniest thing in the nfl's history for me.
Marino era was rugged for qbs. He would destroy defenses today and today's players wouldn't look as good in those days. Late hits on qbs and defenders threw all their weight on you. His stats were insane.
That timeout by the Chargers didn’t bite them in the ass. It was called with five seconds on the play clock, with the teams already lined up. If you need to make a stop in a key situation and don’t like the look that you see, you call a timeout. The issue was that the Chargers just didn’t make the stop coming out of the timeout.
@The_Zilli This is a joke right? Funny we get this grand delusion of 80s football when Marino still benefitted from rule changes to allow the passing game to explode like it did.
@The_Zilli “Let my stupidly shine for entirely” even though you made a fool of yourself posting stats that don’t matter under the contexts you posted of “Back when 5k matter” cause this romance version of 80s football. When, I threw in the reason why it was able to be achieved was because of the rule change in 1978, and to show how dumb you are look at those stats, those are the results of the 78 rule change.
I hope Drew Brees doesn’t get overlooked in history.He legit played over a decade against 4 of the top 10 qbs ever,not to mention like 6 other guys that will be likely be second or later ballot HOFers or just barely miss.And he also played like 3 years against Mahomes.
@@4mbrose It isn't though. It is devolving. Pass defense is pretty much outlawed. They are running out of places on the body to legally tackle as well. Eventually it will be like Arena football where the scoreboard looks like a basketball game.
@@KudeghrawSo I guess your smoothbrained ass missed literally the chiefs having the best pass defense in football last year and shutting down offenses every week. They JUST won a sb off the back of their generational defense and yet we still make shit arguments. Yeah you’re just a bot account.
@@Kudeghraw Did you not watch the Chiefs show everyone how is done this year? They played physical and kept the penalties down while punishing certain plays with big 'old hits.
I want a video on the 49er to Chiefs QB pipeline... Steve DeBerg, Montana, Bono, Grbac, Smith... How is it so many 49er QBs went from one red to color to the other?
A couple of them can be attributed to an assistant coach who came over to the Chiefs in the early '90s. The others are probably more coincidence than anything, although it is kind of funny that there's a 30-year stretch from 1987 to 2016 where the Chiefs didn't win a game with a quarterback they drafted, but quarterbacks the 49ers drafted accounted for more than half their wins.
Steelers nation!!! Big Ben a top 5 QB all time stats don’t lie two Super Bowl rings 3 500 yard passing games only QB to have two 6TD games back to back! Also don’t forget one of the best throws in NFL history in Super Bowl 43 with legendary POLAMALU 43 ON THE FIELD
I've pondered this for a while but does anyone else think if Drew Brees would've went to another team that already had a really good offense and just needed a QB he would've been the one we call the Goat today?
This isn't always the indication of a great quarterback. They have to be good but most of the time they had to have some problems on the team that required them to throw this much. Without researching, I would guess that these teams either had to have a weak running game, poor defense, or both. No matter how great a quarterback is they aren't required to put up these passing numbers to win games on a well balanced team, thus the reason there are so many Hall of Fame quarterbacks not on this list.
Great video but not having Drew front and center was a miss!! Not saying he was the best qb in the video but he hit the 5k mark 5 times!! If this video was about SB rings where would you put Brady?
And the fact Drew never won a MVP blew me away!
2009 he was robbed because media had a love fest with Peyton Manning tbh
It’s a combo of him being underrated and with other QBs having incredible seasons. However, one of Rodgers MVP seasons should have went to Brees but the media loved Rodgers
He never won a MVP because of the media bias and the fact that the Saints seldom had a defense that could stop anyone.

Big Ben is my favorite QB to date. I was in 6th grade his rookie year and that's when I really started to love the game. Steelers were my team and we only lost one game that year and lost the the AFC championship. Next year we won the superbowl.
does he know?
@@Kyrieleis_ hahahahah fk no he doesn't know I even breath air hahahahahah lol 😂
Not putting Jameis Winston on the thumbnail was a fumble 😭
I actually tried to find a high quality image of him without his helmet on (also looking in the correct direction) , but the only 4k or 1080 images were with his helmet on!
It's wild that Big Ben made it to 5k. I'm a Steelers fan, I watched his whole tenure, I love that big lug and his big arm. But the only reason he threw the ball so much was because the running game was really dismal - 31st in rush yards, but 4th in total offense!
I love to see Ben throw a TD, and he's a great gunslinger and awesome comeback guy. But he was never a Brees or Manning or Brady in a well oiled offense that just keeps marching down the field. He was always a "throw it and see what happens" guy.
It shouldn't surprise anyone that the 2018 season, where Mahomes was MVP with 5k yards and the Chiefs make a deep run, Ben was out of the playoffs and the considering retirement.
My boy Brees did it 5 times 🔥 (i missed one lol)
That Drews picture is in the back of a group he is the President over and in fact should be called the "Drew Brees club", really sums up a lot about Drew Brees and how underated/over looked he is.
It is exactly that kind of thing.
What does marino passing yards have to do with the kevel of qb athleticism today? That makes no sense.
Plus i dont think the level of qb play today is better than the 80's as you said. They may be less risky today and more picky with when they throw but guys in the 80's could sling itjust as fast and far as today.
Excellent video
The main takeaway seems to be, whether it’s FIVE hundred yards a game, or FIvE thousands yards a season, it’s like being Icarus, flying too close to the sun…
It’s all glorious until the sudden drop…
Mahomes winning the Super Bowl in the same season is like Terrell Davis and his 2000 yard season when he also won the championship…
Both incredibly rare feats…
🤔
Marino accomplishing this is way more impressive then all the other guys who did it in an offensive biased league where defense has so many things going against them.
Drew was robbed of at least 2 MVP awards
Marino is above them all, not even close.
Drew Bress is very very very very underrated
I say Marino was most impressive. Marino peak was still the bell cow running back era.
Aloha Mr phenoms, I’m split between reliving that moment and having more chargers’ content. I don’t want to hear you say Staley no morrrrrre.
Ben was only 48 yards short of doing it back in 2014. That was a hell of a season
I never realized how much of a beast Drew Brees was, now im questioning what the Saints were doing while he was under center...
God I miss Marino. He was so far ahead of the rest of the league and would have absolutely excelled in today video game, offensive dominated NFL. Throw Dan Fouts into the same category, as he was doing what Marino accomplished a few years earlier.
Today’s NFL is heavily tilted towards favoring the offense (especially the QB and receivers) and limiting what the defenders can do. It’s almost a joke what defenders can’t do vs what was allowed a couple of decades ago.
Nicely done.
The list underrated UA-camr on the planet
Great Video 📸
Yes! And after they threw every ball they went and caught it all by themselves too!
drew brees was like a machine. I don't know how he didn't win more Superbowls.
This is the Drew Brees list as it should be. WHO DAT!
I remember looking up qbs with 5000+ yards in a season and being genuinely flabbergasted that the pick king himself jameis winston had a 5000 yard season, easily the funniest thing in the nfl's history for me.
What about the 50 TD seasons that even rarer
Peyton, Brady, Mahomes...
That wasn’t the point of the video, it was yards
Marino era was rugged for qbs. He would destroy defenses today and today's players wouldn't look as good in those days. Late hits on qbs and defenders threw all their weight on you. His stats were insane.
I’d love a video on that chargers vs raiders game
That timeout by the Chargers didn’t bite them in the ass. It was called with five seconds on the play clock, with the teams already lined up.
If you need to make a stop in a key situation and don’t like the look that you see, you call a timeout. The issue was that the Chargers just didn’t make the stop coming out of the timeout.
There's only one name on that list - Marino where the 5k yards actually means something.
By far it was more difficult for him.
@The_Zilli This is a joke right? Funny we get this grand delusion of 80s football when Marino still benefitted from rule changes to allow the passing game to explode like it did.
@345optimusprime -
Stats from the 80s (if Marino was 1st for the year, then I listed 2nd best QB for comparison). Let your stupidity shine for all of eternity.
80 - Fouts 4715y 30 TDs
81 - Fouts 4802y 33 TDs
82 - Fouts 2883y 17 TDs [NFL Strike]

88 - Marino 4434y 28 TDs
- Everett 3964y 31 TDs
89 - Majikowski 4318y 27 TDs
@The_Zilli “Let my stupidly shine for entirely” even though you made a fool of yourself posting stats that don’t matter under the contexts you posted of “Back when 5k matter” cause this romance version of 80s football.
When, I threw in the reason why it was able to be achieved was because of the rule change in 1978, and to show how dumb you are look at those stats, those are the results of the 78 rule change.
So just discredit everyone else huh?
I like how Tom Brady isn't on the clip art 😂
I hope Drew Brees doesn’t get overlooked in history.He legit played over a decade against 4 of the top 10 qbs ever,not to mention like 6 other guys that will be likely be second or later ballot HOFers or just barely miss.And he also played like 3 years against Mahomes.
To be fair Mahomes had already passed for 5000+ yds in 16 games in 2022. The 17th game was just extra credit lol
Yeah, its much easier to get stats now that nobody can play defense...
@@Kudeghrawwell tbf defense is catching up with offenses again
@@4mbrose It isn't though. It is devolving. Pass defense is pretty much outlawed. They are running out of places on the body to legally tackle as well. Eventually it will be like Arena football where the scoreboard looks like a basketball game.
@@KudeghrawSo I guess your smoothbrained ass missed literally the chiefs having the best pass defense in football last year and shutting down offenses every week. They JUST won a sb off the back of their generational defense and yet we still make shit arguments. Yeah you’re just a bot account.
@@Kudeghraw Did you not watch the Chiefs show everyone how is done this year? They played physical and kept the penalties down while punishing certain plays with big 'old hits.
Yes he did
The amount of passes Brady had to throw compared to everyone ends, to get the same number of yards, says a lot
Rules change. Game different
I want a video on the 49er to Chiefs QB pipeline... Steve DeBerg, Montana, Bono, Grbac, Smith... How is it so many 49er QBs went from one red to color to the other?
A couple of them can be attributed to an assistant coach who came over to the Chiefs in the early '90s. The others are probably more coincidence than anything, although it is kind of funny that there's a 30-year stretch from 1987 to 2016 where the Chiefs didn't win a game with a quarterback they drafted, but quarterbacks the 49ers drafted accounted for more than half their wins.
@@dfp_01 After the Chiefs drafted QB Todd Blackledge, they realized they were too stupid to draft QBs.
How about a video on the 2000 yard rushing seasons in NFL History
Famous Jameis
Video idea: Best Rookie RB seasons of all-time. Your boi didn’t have no choice but to hit that subscribe button and ring the bell.
I will definitely keep this one in mind! Thanks for the idea!
Kind of crazy that just one of these phenomenal seasons was crowned with a win in SB.
I just do not understand why...
Big Ben not making the pro bowl after that is the biggest robbery I’ve ever seen
Dakota getting ready to join this list
I’m convinced that 2011 was just a bad year for defenses, so many insane passing seasons.
Not sure if you have done a video - covering all of the Wide Receivers to hold all records a WR can have at the same time.
If you ever needed a reminder of just how good drew brees is, your got it
Steelers nation!!! Big Ben a top 5 QB all time stats don’t lie two Super Bowl rings 3 500 yard passing games only QB to have two 6TD games back to back! Also don’t forget one of the best throws in NFL history in Super Bowl 43 with legendary POLAMALU 43 ON THE FIELD
How does Brady get All Pro Second Team when he throws for 5316 yards 43 TD and 12 INTs? lol
If there's 12 games in a season that's f****** a miracle, if there's 18 games in a season
I’ve always wondered how San Diego felt about letting Brees go
drew brees is top 5 all time
I've pondered this for a while but does anyone else think if Drew Brees would've went to another team that already had a really good offense and just needed a QB he would've been the one we call the Goat today?
This isn't always the indication of a great quarterback. They have to be good but most of the time they had to have some problems on the team that required them to throw this much. Without researching, I would guess that these teams either had to have a weak running game, poor defense, or both. No matter how great a quarterback is they aren't required to put up these passing numbers to win games on a well balanced team, thus the reason there are so many Hall of Fame quarterbacks not on this list.
5000 yards when you cant run the ball
the chiefs could run it just fine in 2018 and 2022. Mahomes just killed everyone through the air anyway
How many suoer- bowls between Drew and Dan Marino? Yeh... Stats are nice but ... TB -- the 'game manager'..
Did drew dirty with the graphic. This is his stat.
It's marino's stat. He was the first to do it and his was the most difficult to accomplish.
@@brandocalrissian3294but only did it once Brees is better
Crazy brees isn’t at the center of the thumbnail, he has the most 5k yard seasons of any other QB by far.
Great video but not having Drew front and center was a miss!! Not saying he was the best qb in the video but he hit the 5k mark 5 times!! If this video was about SB rings where would you put Brady?
Marino in '84 was the best. What he did that season was insane.
Bree’s is my favorite player
Drew Brees is the goat, as a Nola fan I’m totally not biased.
