Quarterback Peyton Manning threw 55 touchdown passes in the 2013 regular season, but his one rushing touchdown of the year was one of his most memorable. Manning's 1-yard touchdown run on a naked bootleg gave the Broncos a 28-17 lead over the Cowboys in Week 5.

Quarterback Peyton Manning's arching 20-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Eric Decker gave the Broncos a 30-13 lead over the Texans in the fourth quarter - and it also helped Manning tie Tom Brady's NFL record of 50 touchdown passes in a single season. Manning wasn't done.

When wide receiver Demaryius Thomas hauled in a screen pass from quarterback Peyton Manning and took off 78 yards for a touchdown, it not only sealed a 49-27 win over the Ravens for the Broncos - it gave Manning a place in history, marking the seventh touchdown pass he threw that night.
Peyton Manning's final pass of the 2013 regular season not only extended Manning's NFL record for single-season touchdown passes. The quarterback's 5-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Demaryius Thomas in Week 17 also gave Manning the NFL single-season record for passing yardage with 5,477.
In an MVP season full of memorable plays, Peyton Manning's most unforgettable may have happened late in the fourth quarter of the Broncos' 37-13 win over the Texans. Manning lofted a 25-yard touchdown pass to tight end Julius Thomas with 4:28 to play, setting the quarterback alone atop the record books with his 51st touchdown pass of the season.
