With the benefit of hindsight, it didn't take Drew Brees long to pinpoint the turnaround game in the Saints' march to a division championship last season.

"It was going to Atlanta and beating the Falcons," said the quarterback, talking of a 31-13 November victory in which he got things going with a long touchdown pass to Devery Henderson in the opening moments, on a day the defense limited the Falcons to 59 yards in the air. "We were 6-4 going in," said Brees, "but we had lost three of the last four. That game got us back on track."

Without the benefit of hindsight, there's no telling how 2007 will play out for a 5-6 club that entertains the NFC South-leading, 7-4 Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday.
