C'mon Brady! The GOAT would become even... GOATier!

So Brees' record ends at 54 games huh? Brady needs 11 to tie and 12 to pass. Pretty cool. I'd like to see more Lombardi trophies before any individual records though, and I'm sure Brady feels the same.

So playoffs don't count in this streak ?

I just hope that if it happens at home, they don't stop the game and do a little celebration. God, that was embarrassing.

Gee...that got me to thinking. I wonder if one of Drew Brees' four or five year old children will be in attendance, like Johnny U's son was at the record breaker in the Dome?

Or maybe the NFL could schedule the game during NO's Bye week so Brees can witness the feat.

This is one of the few personal and team records for which I'd stop a game. It's really an amazing accomplishment.

Don't get me wrong; I'm sure Brady would trade it for another ring, but it's extraordinary nonetheless to hold it. Not many NFL records stand for over half a century, as did Unitas' original record.

Unitas' record is far more impressive though. These days a QB doesn't throw a TD he had a bad game.

Can you go into some detail about the lost draft for the '72 Fish....never heard this before

That said, #1 is Don Shula's record of wins (328). That one, at least, looks secure for a while. [Even BB is about 150 wins back.]

Postgame last Thursday Rex Ryan vowed to break it

Amen.

In a tight, low scoring game, dude throws 50 times when his lead back is averaging 5 yds per carry. After the 4th INT, one would think that getting the W would be the most important aspect.

Head scratching, ain't it?
