Peyton Manning broke/tied two Quarterback records in the 2013-2014 season. In the very first game of the season vs. the Ravens. Peyton threw seven touchdown passes that game. Peyton is one of seven Quarterbacks to this accomplishment. The other Quarterbacks are Sid Luckman (1943), Adrian Burk (1954), George Blanda (1961), Y. A. Tittle (1962), Joe Kapp (1969), and Nick Foles (2013).
In 1982, Dan Marino broke the single season touchdown record with 49! Forty nine touchdown records is still incredible and almost impossible even today. Peyton Manning broke the record with 49 touchdown passes in 2004. Peyton held that record for 3 years, until Tom Brady broke it with 50! Tom Brady made everybody think that record could never be broken. In Week 15 vs. the Chargers, Peyton had 45 touchdown passes. After the game Peyton had only 47 touchdown passes, which met Peyton Manning needed four touchdown passes in the next game vs. the Texans because he's probably not going to start the last game of the season, so he'll be safe for the playoffs. On the game vs. the Texans Peyton Manning had his third touchdown pass of the game to Eric Decker which tied Tom Brady's record. Peyton threw his forth to Tight End Julius Thomas in the corner of the endzone. Peyton broke the record and he now has 51 touchdown passes in the 2013 season!
