I don't think I said that no QB ever during the 80s or prior decades failed to put up big TD years. From the 1960s through the late 90s, roughly 2003 - you had a 4-6 guys on a regular basis over 26 passing TDs.
Around 2004-2005, that's when you see things really jump and fairly consistently you have a dozen QBs surpassing that 25-26 TD mark.
What changed? The rules about how you can hit/attack receivers and QBs...
If you think I'm arguing that no QB ever had a prolific season in the 60s-80s like now, you're mistaken. It was far from the norm like it is now.
There were 9 QBs with more than 33 TD passes last year.
