Will the
Lions go 0-16? Are the
Saints going to finish with a winning record?
** What are your thoughts?**
Game ball
Drew Brees gave himself an outside chance to break Dan Marino's all-time mark for passing yards (5,084) by racking up 351 against a struggling Lions secondary. He needs 402 in his final game against the Panthers -- a number he has already surpassed twice this year -- to set a new record.
Key stat
The stats were as lopsided as the final score, but one in particular stood out. The Saints were a remarkable 11-of-12 on third down, setting the stage for their dominance in every other offensive category.
Noteworthy
