Brees to get MRI after injuring foot in game against Lions
The Saints are 5-9 this season, and will prepare for their home finale next Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Detroit receiver Calvin Johnson recovered an onside kick attempt by the Saints and the Lions ran the clock down, but Matt Prater missed a field goal to give the Saints the ball with nine seconds remaining and needing 72 yards for a touchdown.
With the pass Brees became the fourth National Football League quarterback to reach 60,000 yards passing. Manning has missed the past five games with his partially torn plantar fascia.
Brees drove New Orleans 80 yards in 15 plays connecting with tight end Ben Watson to end the scoring with the Saints trailing 35-27 with just under 2 minutes left in the game.
After the game, Brees walked into the press conference room wearing a walking boot.
Drew Brees thought he had led the Saints to a momentum-shifting touchdown three times late in the first half, only to wind up with nothing.
They’ve been competitive even in their two losses during that stretch, falling once on a last-second touchdown heave by Green Bay and losing by a touchdown against St. Louis. “He was chasing perfection”, said Lions receiver Golden Tate, who caught two short touchdown passes. I know after yesterday’s MRI, and I know another doctor will take a look at this, we’ll be able to answer some of those questions.
On the year, Stafford is completing 64.4 percent of his passes for 27 touchdowns and 13 interceptions with a passer rating of 93.7.
But Lions coach Jim Caldwell, who could be trying to save his job, said today he doesn’t concern himself with trying to establish a foundation that could speak to the potential his team might have next year. “He spread it around quite a bit”.
Saints coach Sean Peyton and Brees led the Saints to a Super Bowl title in the 2009 season but those glory days are far behind them.
“But we have to be more consistent just like every other team in the NFL”. “You play Drew Brees in this place, it’s like an NBA basketball game”.
The former cheerleader also said, “We do a lot for this community and I’m beyond exhausted of getting badgered for this.get over yourselves”.
First, Cooks made a spectacular one-handed catch of Brees’ 28-yard pass and was initially ruled to have scored as he was tackled near the goal line, but the call was changed after a video review, marking Cooks down at the 1. Meanwhile, Lance Moore also had one catch, which gained 10 yards.

“A timeout was granted inadvertently on that play”, referee Pete Morelli told a pool reporter after the game.
