New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady has hailed Peyton Manning for breaking his passing record of 50 touchdowns on Sunday.
Manning threw his 51st score of the season when he found tight Julius Thomas in the endzone in his side's 37-13 win over the Houston Texans at Reliant Stadium, breaking Brady's record that had stood since the 2007 season.
Brady told WEEI: "It's an incredible feat. To throw 50 like we did in 2007 was incredible. [Dan] Marino threw 48, then Peyton threw 49, and I was lucky enough to be on the team to throw 50.
"And 51 is unbelievable through 15 games, they've been throwing at an incredible pace, and what they've done offensively and certainly in the passing game has been incredible."
The Broncos secured their seed as either the number one or two ranked team in the AFC playoffs with their win on Sunday.
