Brees threw for 6,404 yds, landing him at the top of the list (although 2013 Peyton was right behind him with 6,387 yds). Eli and Brady both tossed for over 6,100 yds in 2011, ranking them 3rd and 4th, respectively.
Funny enough, the season exactly one decade after was nearly just as impressive, starting with Stafford putting up 6k yds in 2021. Brady and Mahomes went for about 5,900, just enough to land them both in the top 10 for this stat. Burrow also went off that year with 5,716 yds, sliding him into the 13th spot.
If history repeats itself, then the 2031 season is going to yield some all time great quarterback seasons.
