On Sunday, the Pittsburgh Steelers pulled off a decisive 16-10 win over the New Orleans Saints it he NFL's first game in Paris and improved to 5-2 on the season. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers didn't have a huge day statistically, but his touchdown pass to tight end Darnell Washington was certainly history.
The four-yard toss was touchdown pass number 540 for his career. This moved him ahead of Peyton Manning and he now sits alone at No. 3, trailing only Drew Brees with 571 and Tom Brady with 649. Rodgers is the only active player in the Top Five, with Matthew Stafford next at No. 6 with 443. Rodgers has already said this is his last NFL season, so there's little chance he catches Brees.
