It's too bad the didn't plan a parade for after the team's 38-24 win over the on Thursday, because there was a lot to celebrate following the win.Not only did Brady hit a major career milestone, but he also broke one of the weirdest records in existence when he hit with a fourth-quarter touchdown pa s that put the Patriots up 31-17. Tom Brady just threw his 500th TD pa s to The Checkdown (@thecheckdown) First,
Doug Williams Jersey the scoring throw to Gordon gave Brady 500 touchdown pa ses for his career, making him just the third player in NFL history to reach that milestone ( and Brett Favre are the other two). More on the NFL The other reason the touchdown was a big deal is because Gordon became the 71st player to be on the receiving end of a Brady touchdown pa s, which set an NFL record. Brady's throwing score to Gordon broke a tie with Vinny Testaverde, who threw touchdown pa ses to 70 different players during his 21 seasons in the NFL. Coincidentally, Testaverde actually spent one season with the Patriots (2006) and even threw a touchdown pa s that year as Brady's teammate. After New England's win over Indy, Brady did what Brady always does, he credited everyone who helped him get to where he is today."I think all these things like
Chase Roullier Jersey that, milestones and so forth, there are ," Brady said, via the team's official website. "So, I just think of all the people that have really worked hard. You know, a quarterback doesn't throw them to himself. He needs people to catch them and block and defenses make plays and coaches to coach. These are all great team awards. So, pretty cool."Since Brady set an NFL record that will likely never be broken, we thought we would take the time to list all 71 players who have caught a touchdown pa s from Brady. The Patriots quarterback has been playing for so long that coach Mike Vrabel is even on this list. As a matter of fact, Vrabel caught eight scoring pa ses during his time in New England (2001-08). Although Vrabel was a linebacker, he would regularly sub in as a goal-line back, which led to eight career touchdown catches with New England. We'll start this list with the players who have caught 15 or more touchdown pa ses from Brady: (76), Randy Mo s (39
Camaron Cheeseman Jersey ), (34), Deion Branch (24), (24), Aaron Hernandez (18), Daniel Graham (17), (17), David Patten (16), (16), and Troy Brown (15).Next up, we'll list the guys who have caught between five and 14 touchdown pa ses. Amazingly, this is where Vrabel shows up on the list: Christian Fauria (13), David Givens (12), (10), Kevin Faulk (10), (10), Mike Vrabel (
, (7), (7), (7), (6), Jabar Gaffney (6), Tim Wright (6) and (5).Going into Week 4, wasn't even going to be on this list, but the Patriots receiver has now caught a touchdown pa s in two straight games, making him one of 27 players who have caught between two and four touchdown pa
Darrell Green Jersey ses from Brady. Here's the list of those guys: Reche Caldwell (4), (4), (4), Bethel Johnson (4), Brandon Lloyd (4), (4), Donte' Stallworth (4), (4), (4), (3), Doug Gabriel (3), Chad Jackson (3), Antowain Smith (3), Jermaine Wiggins (3), Sam Aiken (2), (2), Kyle Brady (2), (2), Alge Crumpler (2), Corey Dillon (2), (2), Tim Dwight (2), Marc Edwards (2), Donald Hayes (2), (2), Cordarrelle Patterson (2), and (2). As for Gordon, he joins some big names like , Chad Johnson and Terry Glenn on the list of players who have caught only one touchdown pa s from Brady: (1), Tom Ashworth (1), LaGarrette Blount (1), (1), (1), Larry Centers (1), Cam Cleeland (1), Andre' Davis (1), Heath Evans (1), Terry Glenn (1), (1), (1), Laurence Maroney (1), Mathew Mulligan (1), Chad Johnson (1), Patrick Pa s (1), David Thomas (1), (1), Dedric Ward (1), and Josh Gordon (1).Overall, that's 500 total touchdown pa ses to 71 different receivers.Finally, if you need a cheat sheet to help
