Only two QBs in NFL history have averaged 2 passing TDs per game played

Yes Drew and Aaron are great QB's, but it's also a sign of the times. People are throwing fades or rub plays with goal to go because it's tough for defenses to stop these days. This reduces the number of rushing TD's and increases the number of passing TD's.

While this is true, the fact remains only 2 QBs in this era of high playing passing attacks have achieved it.

Even the great Tom Brady is some 20 TDs short of that average, and QBs like Rivers, Ryan, Stafford and Roethlisberger are not even close.
