? Saints beat Lions 45-28
? Saints now face San Francisco 49ers
Drew Brees threw three touchdown passes as the New Orleans Saints won 45-28 against the Detroit Lions in their NFC wildcard game on Saturday. The Saints, who were the Super Bowl champions two years ago, took a ninth-straight win to set up a meeting with the San Francisco 49ers on 14 January.
Only four quarterbacks have passed for over 5,000 yards in an NFL season and two of them, Brees and the Lions' Matthew Stafford, were on the field in New Orleans.
Brees, who set a new single-season passing record, completed 33 of 43 passes for 466 yards and threw three second-half touchdowns, including a 56-yarder to Robert Meachem and a 41-yarder to Devery Henderson. Jimmy Graham was also on the receiving end of a Brees touchdown pass while Darren Sproles ran for two scores and Pierre Thomas got another late in the game.
Stafford completed 28 passes for 380 yards and three touchdowns, including two to the NFL's leading receiver, Calvin Johnson, and another to Will Heller.
