Brees throws for three touchdowns in Saints' victory New Orleans 38, Tampa Bay 7 Perfect through 10 games, the New Orleans Saints think they can play even better. "I feel like we haven't peaked yet. ... I feel like the sky's the limit for this team," Drew Brees said after throwing for three touchdowns in Sunday's 38-7 rout of the struggling Tampa Bay Buccaneers. "It only gets harder. By no means can we sit back on what we've accomplished thus far. Every team we face would love to give us that first loss." The Saints (10-0) shrugged off a slow start defensively, shutting down the Bucs after yielding a long touchdown drive to open the game. Offensively, they took advantage of numerous mistakes by young Tampa Bay quarterback Josh Freeman. The Saints' 10-game winning streak is the longest in franchise history. "I like where we're at. We're 10-0 and we beat a division opponent on the road," coach Sean Payton said. "I thought we got better today." A spate of turnovers made the Saints seem more vulnerable over the past month, but Brees didn't throw an interception for the first time in five games. The Saints also didn't allow a sack for the first time since Oct. 18 against the Giants. Brees said the NFL's No. 1 offense can become even more efficient. Tampa Bay (1-9) drove 95 yards for a touchdown on its first possession. But Freeman had little success after his 18-yard scoring pass to Michael Clayton gave the Bucs a short-lived 7-0 lead. Game notes Bucs WR Antonio Bryant played after missing the previous two games with a sore left knee. He had three receptions for 40 yards. ... Saints CB Chris McAlister, signed last week to bolster an injury-weakened secondary, was inactive. ... RT Jeremy Trueblood left the game in the second half with a knee injury that the Bucs did not feel is serious.
Can the Saints even be beaten? Im nervous because my friend in my Fantasy League has Bress, and a ton of other Saints... I can see the Saints vs Vikings in the playoffs.
