VIDEO GAME NUMBERS: Saints Have 3 Wide Receivers Break 1,000 Yards Apiece
Brees has never had a more talented stable of wideouts than he does right now. The young trio of Brandin Cooks, Michael Thomas, and Willie Snead will all have more than 1,000 yards receiving.
Cooks and Thomas are currently on pace to have almost 1,200 yards apiece, but Snead projects to fall just shy of 1,000.
Thomas, the rookie phenom with the Twitter moniker @cantguardmike, is going to garner a lot more attention from opposing defenses.
Cooks is a game-breaker that keeps defensive coordinators up all night planning against. These two are simply too talented to not continue to put up numbers, but expect Snead to have some huge second half performances, with the extra attention that his two running mates have earned.
