nah. i mean you COULD argue that Brett's '85 season was better than the '80 season, particularly if you include his postseason, in which he pretty much singlehandedly brought the team back from 3-1 deficits TWICE to win it. Best power numbers, plus a gold glove.
That '85 postseason is the reason Brett was an almost unanimous first ballot HOF'er. I don't know that I've ever seen a position player completely dominate like that. He just willed them to win. |

Mahomes is the right answer but we weren't really protecting Brett late in the season. He was hitting .400 on September 19 and actually played in games 148 through 161 from that point on. |

Great season, but I'd argue that '85 was his truly dominant year. |

Got to see Brett play in KC twice as a kid, and I'd throw both of them in the trash to see Mahomes live

Statistically speaking, only 1 other QB had a comparable season to Mahomes, and that's Peyton Manning, a top 3 QB of all time.
Brett had a great season for sure, hitting a baseball at the ML level is probably one of the hardest things to do in all of sports. But others have put up similar numbers, and Brett didn't get the ball over the fence much, esp compared to stats of today. Some may think that shouldn't matter and that OB% and SLG% are more important. But Mahomes has only started 18 games in the NFL. That's insane..gotta go w/ Mahomes.
