Drew Brees is now sitting with 3,200 passing yards to this point in the 2015 season, which means that for season No. 12 in a row he's surpassed 3,000 yards.

While that's obviously a pretty impressive feat, it may be overlooked just how impressive that actually is to do. As you can see from the team's official Twitter, Brees is behind just two of the best to ever play the game.

While he definitely has a chance to surpass Peyton Manning, catching up to Brett Favre may be a pretty hefty task.
