This is a list of National Football League quarterbacks who have led the regular season in passing yards each year. The record for passing yards in a season is held by Peyton Manning of the Denver Broncos who threw for 5,477 in 2013. Drew Brees has led the NFL in passing yards in seven seasons, more than any other quarterback in NFL history. Brees also has five 5,000 yard passing seasons. In the Super Bowl era (since 1967), no quarterback who had led the NFL in passing yards has led their team to a Super Bowl title, with the last occasion of a passing leader leading a team to a championship of any kind being in 1961 with George Blanda in the American Football League.
