Drew Brees is just 329 yards away from throwing for 5k yards for his 5th time
While the New Orleans Saints might not be winning this year, their quarterback’s production has not diminished. Brees has throw for 5,000 yards three more times than any other player in the history of the NFL. This year Brees could add another year onto his statistics.
@ESPNNFL: Most 5,000-yard seasons – NFL History:
Drew Brees: 4 (329 yds away this yr)
Tom Brady: 1
Peyton Manning: 1
Dan Marino: 1
Matthew Stafford: 1
Brees will need just 329 yards in week 17 to hit the 5k mark for his 5th year. That is crazy considering Manning, Brady and Marino have only done this once.
