The New Orleans Saints are beginning to open up a large lead over the Detroit Lions in their Sunday Night Football matchup.

In the middle of the second quarter, the Saints have been able to score three times on three long drives, helped along by Drew Brees bombs to his receivers. The Detroit defensive line has mostly stopped the ground game from New Orleans, but a shaky secondary has led to moments like this 67 yard pass from Brees to Robert Meachem:
