NEW ORLEANS -- Apparently, the Saints weren't rattled.
It took New Orleans just three plays to get its lead back up to 14 points.
Having squandered a chance to take a three-touchdown lead when defensive lineman Sedrick Ellis fumbled back to New England a fumble he'd recovered deep in Patriots territory, the Saints then saw their lead cut to 7 when Brady took the Pats downfield to a touchdown.
But, when Drew Brees got his hands on the ball, he found Marques Colston open for a 68-yard gain to the N.E. 6 on the Saints' first play of the second half. Two plays later, Brees fired a 2-yard TD strike to tight end Darnell Dinkins.
