With history in reach, Drew Brees focused on Falcons not records

Drew Brees is on the verge of a significant NFL record.

He needs to complete 14 passes against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday to break Brett Favre's mark for career pass completions. Favre retired in 2011 with 6,300 completions. Brees enters Sunday with 6,287.

When told Wednesday that the record was within reach, Brees was nonplussed.

"Which one?" he asked.

When told it was Favre's NFL completion record, he was equally unimpressed. He acted as if I'd just told him the sun would rise on Thursday.

"OK," Brees said.

And that was it. Anyone looking for elaboration on the subject was out of luck.



Typical Brees. Few players love and respect the history of the game more than him, but that's not his focus during game week. He's in full-scale preparation mode. The last thing on his mind are historical records and/or benchmarks. He's all-Falcons 24/7.
