NEW ORLEANS -- Drew Brees made NFL history again Monday night.
Brees threw three touchdown passes against the Indianapolis Colts, tying Peyton Manning's career record with the second and breaking it with the third -- a 5-yarder to tight end Josh Hill midway through the third quarter for the 540th of his career.
Brady is two back at 538.
Brees tied Brady's mark with a 15-yard pass to Michael Thomas early in the second quarter. Then he tied Manning's record at 539 with a 21-yard TD throw to Tre'Quan Smith midway through the second quarter.
