1. Peyton Manning threw for his 500th career touchdown, becoming just the 2nd quarterback all-time to reach this milestone (Brett Favre holds the record at 508, Manning is now five behind at 503)

2. Peyton Manning completed his 13th game of his career with at least 400 passing yards, tying Hall of Famer Dan Marino for the most all-time by a quarterback.

3. Peyton Manning set a career-high with 479 total passing yards in a single game.

I hope all this record breaking equates to a Superbowl win in Feb.

From Tanier's Monday morning column, putting Manning's 500 TD's in context:


• Five hundred touchdowns are as many as Johnny Unitas (290), Bart Starr (152) and Russell Wilson (58) have thrown combined. As of Monday morning, at least.

• Five hundred touchdowns are more than Jim Kelly and Steve Young combined (469), Joe Montana and Terry Bradshaw combined (485), and more than Troy Aikman, Roger Staubach and Joe Namath combined (493).

• Tom Brady has averaged 32.4 touchdowns per year over the past five years. To reach 500 touchdowns, he will have to maintain that touchdown rate through the start of the 2018 season. Drew Brees, two years younger than Brady and averaging 39 touchdowns per year over the last five years, could reach 500 midway through 2017. These projections assume no drop in performance whatsoever from either quarterback, which means ignoring much of what we have seen over the last five weeks.

The rest (always a fun read): http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2221694-mike-taniers-monday-morning-hangover-the-peyton-manning-500
