in each of two consecutive games. Alshon Jeffery, of the Chicago Bears, recorded 12 catches for 249 yards and two touchdowns. This, along with Josh Gordon's game, marked the first time in NFL history two players had at least ten catches for 200 yards and two touchdowns on the same day. With his 211–yard rushing effort against the Chicago Bears, Adrian Peterson of the Vikings breached the 10,000–yard mark for his career. He became the third fastest NFL player to reach 10,000 yards. Peterson accomplished this feat in his 101st career game. Eric Dickerson (91 games) and Jim Brown (98 games) reached this mark in fewer games. Tom Brady's second touchdown pass on Sunday was the 353rd of his pro career, all for the Patriots under Bill Belichick. That broke the NFL record for career TD passes under a particular head coach; Dan Marino threw 352 TD passes under Don Shula. Adam Vinatieri, of the Indianapolis Colts, kicked five field goals (47, 48, 45, 37, 49) against the Tennessee Titans. With this, Vinatieri accomplished the following: joined Morten Andersen as the only players in NFL history to score at least 800 points for two teams, tied Jason Elam’s league record with a 16th season with at least 100 points and tied an NFL record shared by nine players with four field goals from 40–49 yards. Week 14 Matt Prater, of the Denver Broncos, kicked a 64–yard field goal to set a record for the longest field goal in league history. The previous record of 63 yards had stood since and was shared by Tom Dempsey, Jason Elam, Sebastian Janikowski and David Akers. Saints quarterback Drew Brees passed for 313 yards in the victory against the Carolina Panthers, becoming just the fifth player in league history to surpass 50,000 yards passing. Brees reached the milestone in the fewest games (183). The other players to have achieved that level are Peyton Manning (191 games), Dan Marino (193), Brett Favre (211), and John Elway (229). With his seventh game of the year with four or more touchdown passes, Peyton Manning set an NFL record for most such games in a season. He broke the record set in by Dan Marino and equaled by Manning himself in . Week 15 All teams on Sunday combined to score 763 points which set a new league single-day scoring record surpassing the 759 points scored on January
