Brees Breaking the Unbreakable

TheOak · 10-02-2012, 09:52 AM

It has long been thought that Johnny Unitas's record of 47 games with a touch down pass was one of the elite unbreakable records.

As Drew brees continues his assault on the record books, last Sunday Drew tied that record with a TD pass to Marcus Colston against the Green Bay Packers.

This Sunday in front of a home crowd in the Super Dome in New Orleans Drew will have his one opportunity to break that record on prime time Sunday Night Football.

Who will make history catching that record breaking ball"?

Jedediah Collins, rolling his way into the end zone! The last guy they would expect Drew to throw it to -- he'll be wide open, I tell you!

Joe Morgan!

Deep 40 yard TD after a couple of first down runs

Jimmy on a jump ball in the red zone. Hands it to Brees for the dunk.

Jimmy Graham!!

Collins interesting choice, I'm thinking Colston but in the back of mind Moore may sneak in there.

*Hands it to Brees, then lifts him onto his shoulders, for the dunk.

Or sproles, so then brees puts sproles on his shoulders for the dunk and forms the unwanted san diego-tron!!

Either Brees to Hartley (only way hartley can score), or Brees to Shanle (then Shanle retires)

I think Sproles, probably a screen pass that he breaks open on.
