I know it's hard to judge Linemen like Mawae and others. Any of you have a good answer?

Bert Jones was the 1976 NFL MVP

The 1976 regular season was Bert Jones's finest as a professional: he threw for 3,104 yards and a career-high 24 touchdowns, compiling a passer rating of 102.5. He was one of only three quarterbacks to achieve a 100+ passer rating during the entire decade of the 1970s, joining Dallas' Roger Staubach (1971) and Oakland's Ken Stabler (1976).

I would say Bert Jones.
I'd mention a few others who had great seasons for what position they played:
Kevin Faulk, Jerry Stovall, Carlos Carson, Fred Miller, Steve Van Buren, Eddie Kennison, Jimmy Taylor, Henry Thomas, Dalton Hilliard, Leonard Marshall, Eugene Daniel, Brian Kinchen, Kevin Mawae, Donnie Jones, A.J. Duhe, Billy Truax, Corey Webster, Laron Landry.

In a career lasting 17 years, Tittle passed for 33,070 yards, and 242 touchdowns, and twice received the NFL Most Valuable Player Award.

I know he wasn't spectacular for a long period of time, but Harvey Williams was a hoss for a couple of years. Also, he and Dalton Hilliard were very enjoyable to watch playing together in TS.

I can't believe nobody has even considered Anthony "Booger" McFarland

I don't know if Faneca's best year was any better than his worst year. He was so dominant it would be hard to choose. But he should be in this list.
The other missing player IMO is Johnny Robinson. He was all AFL six years in a row and then came back to be named to that team three more times. KC Chiefs.

The answers posted in this thread are a joke. Anyone with even a vague knowledge of NFL history knows that Steve Van Buren was such a dominating force in the league in the late 1940s that you could pretty much label any individual season for him from that era as the greatest season by an LSU player in the NFL. The guy held a ton of NFL records before a knee injury finally did him in. He was way ahead of his time as a player.

Wendell Davis went 15-1 and won the Superbowl.
