I saw some figure showing his 20+ yard completions this year compared to other years, but can't seem to find it. If I recall, this number was very telling. Does anyone have it?

Brees leads the league in accuracy % for passes thrown over 20 yards.
51% accuracy.

Hoodoo man - not that number. I'm looking for the number of completions down field.

FYI - I'm not questioning his accuracy.

For example, 5/10 halfway through this season is very different than 20/40 for the same time a year before. Both have 50% accuracy rate, but the numbers are nonetheless very telling.

if someone catches a 5 yard pass and goes 21 yards, does that count as a 20+ yard completion? still a misleading stat

Watson 7 of 20+ yards
Snead 7
Cooks 6
Colston 4
Ingram 3
Coleman 3
Spiller 1
Khiry 1
---------

32 receptions of 20+ yards

The stats I used above are only for passes that go 20 yards past the LOI.

YAC doesn't play in.

I beleive espn showed the stat on the ticker about Brees explosive td plays. I wish could remember the stat, but it compared 14 tds last year to 0 this year. It was telling, just can't remember the numbers or comparison.
