Brees milestone but Saints fall to Lions
Print Edition
Drew Brees became the fourth National Football League quarterback to throw for 60,000 yards during the New Orleans Saints’ 27-35 loss to the Detroit Lions on Monday, reaching the mark with a 27-yard touchdown pass to receiver Brandin Cooks in the third quarter.
With 60,168 passing yards, Brees trails only Peyton Manning (71,871), Brett Favre (71,838) and Dan Marino (61,361), while his 424 touchdown throws are behind Manning (539), Favre (508) and Tom Brady (427). While Brees continues to pass milestones, the Saints continue to struggle. They fell to 5-9 with Monday’s loss and will miss the postseason for the second straight year, and for the third time in four seasons.
