"Every once in a while, a game just starts to derail in the NFL, and it was happening to the Saints during the first 16 minutes Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings:

A fumble, a dropped pass that led to a punt, a penalty that nullified a touchdown, a botched snap for another fumble.

Yet none of it seemed to matter for a Saints team that has become a runaway train with six consecutive victories.

They eventually routed the Vikings 42-20 behind one of the best performances of quarterback Drew Brees' career. Brees became the first quarterback in NFL history to complete 80 percent of his passes (32 of 40) while throwing for 412 yards and five touchdowns with no interceptions."
