No one has thrown for 540 touchdowns in the NFL until tonight, and Purdue grad Drew Brees is that man now. With his third TD pass of the night against the Indianapolis Colts Brees grabbed his third major NFL passing record with his 540th career TD pass (and it SHOULD HAVE BEEN HIS 541ST THANK YOU VERY MUCH, REFS!). That moved him past Peyton Manning, ironically against Peyton’s old team.
Brees actually entered tonight in third place on the all-time list.
