Drew Brees kept spreading the ball among his receivers and moving the New Orleans Saints toward the go-ahead score as time ticked away in the fourth quarter.

with 50 seconds left, Brees passed to Pierre Thomas who was wide open on the right side for a 6-yard touchdown. The Saints rallied past the Carolina Panthers 30-27 on Sunday for their fourth straight win.

Brees threw for 359 yards and two touchdowns, including the final drive where he made 8 of 9 passes for 80 yards taking back momentum after Newton and the Panthers had taken their first lead earlier in the period. The drive lasted more than six minutes and left Carolina with little time to answer.
