New Orleans, LA – New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees time NFL list.

Brees connected with Lance Moore on a three-yard fade pass for a touchdown in the first quarter Sunday against Tampa Bay.

Favre threw touchdowns passes in 36 straight games for the Packers from 2002-04. Colts legend Johnny Unitas holds the all-time record of 47 games from 1956-60.

Brees can move into second place alone with a touchdown pass at Atlanta next week.
