The New Orleans Saints are taking on the Indianapolis Colts this evening on Monday Night Football and have been celebrating a massive blowout victory. As part of the big win, Drew Brees ended up breaking Peyton Manning's all-time record for most passing touchdowns in NFL history. Following the historic feat, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who is just behind Brees for the record, shared his reaction on Twitter.
Take a look at Brady's reaction to Brees breaking Maning's record for yourself:
Congrats drew!! Couldn’t be more deserving. Passing Peyton in anything is an incredible achievement and your records will be tough to beat! But it’s worth trying 😉

Needless to say, it will be interesting to keep an eye on this record race between Brees and Brady. New England is hoping to compete for another Super Bowl this season, but the future of Brady with the franchise seems a bit murky. There have been some rumblings that Brady could be on his way out of town after this season.
Brees, on the other hand, has shown no signs of slowing down. He is still playing amazing football and the Saints are likely to let him stick around as long as he would like. Teddy Bridgewater is waiting in the wings to take over, but Brees likely has three or four more years in him if he wants them.
Brady could be the same way. He has often stated his desire to play in the NFL for at least a few more years.
All of that being said, a big congratulations is in order to Drew Brees. He has handled himself like a true professional throughout his entire career and is well deserving of this big-time record.
