Here’s an old video of Drew Brees dominating an Olympic archer in an accuracy competition

Drew Brees is the NFL’s most accurate quarterback, and once again proved he owns that title by leading the league with a 74.4% completion rate. That broke an NFL record Brees, himself, set in 2017. In fact, four of the five most accurate seasons in NFL history belong to the future Hall of Famer — with Sam Bradford’s 2016 campaign breaking up Brees’ monopoly the top of the leaderboard.

If numbers aren’t really your thing, here is some video proof that Brees is the NFL’s most precise passer. In this older video, the Saints quarterback takes on an Olympic archer in an accuracy competition, and it’s not much of a contest.

The archer went a respectable 6-of-10, but Brees comfortably beat that score by his seventh throw and finished things off by completing a perfect round.

Consistency seems to be the key to Brees’ accuracy. All 10 of his throws were released with the same launch angle and at the same velocity. It appears Brees has mastered his craft.
