Michael Thomas | 9 Catches, 95 yards

In what shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone, another Saint makes the list but this time it comes in the way of Michael Thomas.

If you were watching the game, you might not have noticed Thomas’s production on the field, but Thomas quietly racked up 95 yards while catching all nine of his targets on the night.

The production from Thomas was expected to go down with Teddy Bridgewater under center. While it hasn’t been a crazy year for Thomas, the fourth year receiver is still playing well.

One of the best attributes for Thomas is that if you throw the ball to him he is probably going to catch it, no matter who is throwing it to him. That is a huge advantage for a young quarterback trying to fill in for a future Hall of Famer.

It’s a reason why Brees is still playing at a high level, and why the Saints still continue to win games in his absence.
