New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees broke the NFL’s all-time record for career touchdown passes on Monday Night Football against the Indianapolis Colts, leading his team to a 34-7 victory in prime-time. But what’s almost as impressive is that he did so while failing to complete just one of his thirty pass attempts, spiking a throwaway at the feet of running back Latavius Murray on a busted screen play.
In other words, Brees went 29-of-30 as a passer, posting a completion percentage of 96.7%. That’s an NFL-record mark for single-game completion percentage, and it just speaks to the accuracy Brees possesses every time the ball leaves his hand.
