It’s another record-breaking night for Drew Brees, the new all-time leader in TD passes

NFL Last night
Brees passed Peyton Manning for most touchdown passes in NFL history at 540, though the record's likely to shift back-and-forth between Brees and Tom Brady (538) until one of them retires.

. needs 3 pass TD on to break Peyton Manning's all-time career record (539). If he does, Brees will join HOF Sammy Baugh as the only players in NFL history to SIMULTANEOUSLY hold the NFL records for pass yards, pass TD, and completion percentage (min. 1,500 att).

Most passing yds ✅ Most passing TDs ✅ Drew Brees is almost 41 & STILL has it: Brees was 20/21 in the first half - it was the best first half completion rate of his career. He's now 27/28 on the night, averaging 10.0 YPA and of course the 3 TDs. A walking legend.

This is actually the Colts' diabolical way to get even with Tom Brady: Let Drew Brees throw so many TD's, he'll put the NFL career record out of reach.
