Sorry, I don't really see how impressive this record is in a league that is pass oriented. Why should I be awe-struck at Brees's record when I saw him throw a TD pass with 10 seconds left on the clock in a game they had no chance of winning, just to keep the streak going?
Moreover, I am thoroughly unimpressed with 1-2 yard dump offs to running backs that end up being 30+ yard touchdowns - Qb's should not be credited with a TD in those situations. I am far too young to have watched Unitas, but I have watched enough of the Saints the past few years, and specifically Drew Brees to see how much individual stats mean to the dude. I really don't think his streak was all that brilliant.
I personally don't know Brady, but for a guy that his arguably the greatest to ever play the game; multiple SB rings, MVP’s, and countless records - I find it hard to believe that he would be passionate about getting this one, or that he would even be aiming for it.
EDIT: I meant to hit the quote button for this post, I am too lazy to go find the one I was replying to.
