Saints Defense Comes Up BIG in win over Bills

With all the attention on Drew Brees and his prolific start, turns out the Saints defense is pretty effective, too.

Will Smith had an interception and a sack to help New Orleans shut down the Buffalo Bills for a 27-7 win Sunday.

The Saints prevented the Bills from mustering any type of a threat through three quarters.

That's when Pierre Thomas took over, sealing the win with two touchdown runs in the final 10 minutes. Thomas finished with 126 yards rushing, while scoring on 34- and 19-yard runs for a Saints offense had scored 45 points in each of its first two games.

The Bills offense sputtered, and Terrell Owens was held without a catch, to end a 185-game streak that had been second longest among active players.
