Drew Brees' first half stats look like he's already played a full game.
It has been a high scoring affair in Tampa Bay as the New Orleans Saints have rallied back from an early 14 point deficit to lead 28-21 at halftime.

The Saints defense has looked absolutely terrible save for a series or two. That's okay, though, because Drew Brees is playing out of this mind. He's 20 of 25 for 313 yards, 4 TDs and a passer rating of 141.7. Yes, those are just the first half stats. Marques Colston, Darren Sproles, Joe Morgan and David Thomas all have a touchdown catch.
