DENVER -- We should catalog all of this for posterity. Thursday night, against the defending Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens, Denver quarterback Peyton Manning tied Brett Favre’s NFL record for games with four touchdown passes. It was his 23rd such game. That’s a pretty impressive feat.

Thirteen minutes later, he tied Drew Brees for the NFL record of FIVE touchdown games. Seventh time he pulled that off. It has been an amazing career.

Thirty-four minutes later, he set the NFL record for most games with SIX touchdown passes. It was the third time he has done that in the regular season. Nobody else in NFL history can say that (though Tom Brady has also done it three times if you include the six-touchdown game he had against Denver in the playoffs in 2012).

And then, thirty-eight minutes later, Peyton Manning became the first quarterback in 44 years -- only the sixth ever -- to throw seven touchdown passes in a single game.
