RB Alvin Kamara had 102 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns in Sunday’s 51-14 victory at Cincinnati.

*Michael Thomas – Noteworthy

*Michael Thomas – Noteworthy
WR Michael Thomas was fined $30,000 by the NFL for retrieving a cell phone from within the goal post padding and celebrating after scoring a touchdown last week in a 45-35 win over the Los Angeles Rams. Thomas was paying tribute to former Saints wide receiver Joe Horn, who did the same thing to celebrate a score 15 years ago. For what it’s worth, Horn also was fined $30,000. “I paid a tribute to him, tried to get the crowd going a little bit more, set the tone, have fun out there, giving people a show,” the 25-year-old Thomas said last week. “You gotta have fun. All these guys just catching touchdowns and celebrating with each other, having fun, getting the crowd involved. I felt like I had an opportunity to make it happen, put the game away and make a call.”

Drew Brees – Noteworthy
QB Drew Brees completed 22-of-25 passes for 265 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday’s 51-14 victory at Cincinnati. Brees has 509 touchdown passes, moving past Brett Favre (508) for second all-time and trailing Peyton Manning by 31.

Mark Ingram II – Noteworthy
RB Mark Ingram II rushed for 104 yards and added 58 yards receiving and a touchdown in Sunday’s 51-14 victory at Cincinnati.
