Saints Report: Saints lose second straight game

Saints Quarterback Drew Brees is used to making history, but not the kind of history he was making on Sunday in what could have been a Super Bowl preview against the Chiefs.

- saints quarterback drew brees i- used to making- history... but not the kind of- history he was making, on - sunday... in what could've been- a super bowl preview... - against the chiefs.

- - - - in his first action back, - following a four-game absence - with 11 - broken ribs and a punctured - lung... brees hardly looked - like himself... especially earl- on.

- having never prevously started - game with more than - four straight incompletions...- the n-f-l's all-time leading- passer started 0-6, with a- pick... and four straight three- and-outs.

- albeit playing at less than 100- percent... brees finished - 15-34...- just his eighth time finishing- less than 50 percent- passing... and his first... - since 20- 13.

- the future hall of famer would- go onto throw three - touchdowns passes, in a - three-point loss... now the - second straight... for the blac- and gold.

- - "the first four drives were not what we - wanted, obviously - four- three-and-outs.

Didn't really - find our rhythm until the - second quarter and the fourth - quarter.

I'd say if you kind of- broke this down,- - - - second quarter, fourth quarter.- came out of the game okay.

It - was great to be back out- there.

Great to be back out - there with the team, just - competing again.- obvously, it's been tough over- the last four weeks.

But great- to be back out there."

- - - the saints are still holding- down the second spot, in the- n-f-- c... but would need to win- out... and for the packers to - lose- their last two... in order to - claim the number one seed, and- more- importantly... the only first - round
