It could happen this Sunday and I’m guessing it won’t linger beyond next week, but Drew Brees will become the Saints’ all-time leader in touchdown passes.
That means New Orleans fans can cross off another memory of Aaron Brooks, who never came close to fulfilling his potential. Brooks still is the franchise’s all-time leader with 120 touchdown passes. But Brees has 117.
Heck, Brees is capable of tying or breaking that record in a quarter. For the record, Archie Manning is third with 115 touchdown passes.
