Look out, Vinny Testaverde: Tom Brady in pursuit of unique TD record

DENVER -- Look out Vinny Testaverde. Here comes Tom Brady.

In one of the more unique records in NFL history, Testaverde holds the top spot after throwing touchdown passes to 70 players. Based on his longevity (1987-2007) and his playing for seven franchises (including two stints with the Jets), Testaverde is the ideal candidate to be atop the charts.

But he might not be there much longer.

Brady inched one step closer to passing Testaverde when he connected with tight end Dwayne Allen for a touchdown in Sunday night’s win over the Broncos, with Allen becoming the 68th player to catch a scoring pass from Brady (regular season only).
