Longest NFL Title Streaks

Seasons finished top of the league in the same category, back to back, with no year missed. A run of 3 or more.

Every league → Most titles all-time →

Drew Brees led the NFL in passing yards for 7 consecutive seasons, 2010 to 2016, the longest run in NFL history.

A title is a season finished first in a category, not an award, and a run ends the moment somebody else finishes first — a missed season through injury breaks it just as a rival's year does.
