Brees ranks third in the NFL with a passer rating of 104.6 (behind Rodgers, 125.7, and Brady, 104.8). Both Rodgers and Brees are on pace to break Brees' NFL record for completion percentage in a season (70.62 percent). Rodgers is at 71.5 percent, and Brees is at 70.9 percent.

I loved the game last night. Drew Brees is a such a phenomenal QB. He would split defenders and get the ball brilliantly to his receivers. Every completion had me smiling and laughing and just shaking my head. What a show this team put on last night.

Keep it up, boys! Take the division and get enough wins to savor a bye week in the playoffs.
This ain't your daddy's Saints! Who Dat!

ditto iceshack..... I was laughing, had a great time watching last nights game. You could tell it was going to be a blood bath from the beginning and I relished every second of it.

Great game - I was glad to see Drew "on" last night. He has been streaky the past couple of seasons
