13. Tom Brady, New England Patriots (2011)

The next year, 2011, was almost an exact replica of Brady's previous one. Again, he counted 8.25 ANY/A with a completion percentage right around 65%.

This time, he threw more picks (12) than the previous season, but he also managed 39 touchdowns and a rating of 105.6. For that, Brady was rewarded with nearly the same outcome -- 13 regular season wins but no cigar. The New York Giants bested the Patriots in Super Bowl 46.
