Peyton Manning is closing in on two more of Brett Favre’s passing records after breaking an NFL record for career touchdown passes last season. Where he stands after :
Yards passing
Brett Favre: 71,838. Manning: 71,836.
Manning is three yards shy of breaking the record. He is on pace to become the NFL’s all-time leading passer during the first offensive drive of the Broncos’ home game against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.
Career wins
Favre: 186. Manning: 186.
Manning is one victory away from claiming this record. Manning’s career winning percentage is slightly higher than .700. On that track, he would break the record at home against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.
