New Orleans Saints' Drew Brees breaks another NFL record

Although New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees did not play in Sunday's 23-10 loss to the Carolina Panthers, he managed to set a record for the highest completion percentage in NFL history.
By completing 70.6 percent (363 of 514) of his passes, Brees snapped the single-season record held by former Bengals quarterback Ken Anderson, who registered a 70.55 completion rate in 1982.
It's the third consecutive season that Brees has either broken or flirted with an NFL record. In 2007, he broke the record for completions in a season with 440, and last season he was 15 yards shy of snapping the NFL season-single record for passing yards.
"It's a huge record," Brees said. "That just says a lot about our team and our offense and what we are doing. Everybody has a hand in that."
