VIDEO: Drew Brees Throws a Dart to Michael Thomas as Saints Extend Lead

Drew Brees and Michael Thomas have an unmistakable connection on the football field. The two combined early for the Saints on Monday Night Football, extending New Orleans' lead over the Colts, and putting Drees one step closer to breaking Peyton Manning's all-time touchdown record.

Thomas' stats are other-worldly at this juncture, posting 121 catches for 1,424 yards and seven scores. The former Ohio State star has morphed into arguably the most consistent threat out wide in all of football, and second place isn't even that close.
