Analysis: Where do Drew Brees, Michael Thomas, Alvin Kamara rank among historic NFL triplets?

Thus far in 2018, there's no debate that it's Brees, Kamara and Thomas. Previously, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, running back Le'Veon Bell and wide receiver Antonio Brown held the mantle, but with Bell sitting out right now, the Saints reign supreme.



Drew Brees, Alvin Kamara and Michael Thomas are all off to record-setting paces at their respective positions through the New Orleans Saints' first three games.
Brees has completed an absurd 80.6 percent of his passes with eight touchdowns and zero interceptions. Kamara is on pace for 160 receptions and 2,293 yards from scrimmage. Perhaps the most impressive is Thomas, who is on track for 203 receptions and 2,123 yards, which would obliterate the records of 143 (Marvin Harrison) and 1,964 (Calvin Johnson).
Thus far this season, with Brees regularly looking their way, Kamara and Thomas have accounted for 64.5 percent of the Saints' offensive output.
After watching these three games, I felt inspired to compare how the impressive Saints trio compares to some of the NFL's great triplets. Based on my findings through Pro Football Reference, which I explain in detail later, the Saints are indeed on track to be among the most productive triplets in league history, but not quite the best trio of all time.
