Both Brees and Brady will be firing at their guy until it gets decided. BB, Brady, and the Pats, despite their public declarations that records mean nothing, ALWAYS go for records.
FWIW, GRONK set a record this week with his sixth consecutive game with a receiving TD. Next week he can tie the record for consecutive games with any type of TD; Curtis Martin holds that record with seven games.

10(+1) TD's in last 6 games, 5 in first 3 games ...how the hell did he go 4 straight games without one is what I want to know.
Gronk is insane. Leads the league in TD receptions and is only 251 yards behind the league leading WR. This is by far the best season a TE has ever had, in my opinion. How many TE's not only play every offensive snap, but also have some sort of impact on nearly every play, whether it's blocking or shaking 2 defenders off while running down the sideline?
As a big Randy Moss fan I was concerned that Calvin Johnson would give his TD records a serious scare. Well, it turns out the one I should've been worried about was Gronkowski.
I would like to see Gronk get this TE yardage record. It would just further highlight what a monster season he is having.
Could get interesting on New Years. The Saints and Pats both play at the same time, so Gronk and Graham could very well be fighting for the record in real time.
