Drew Brees showed off the absolute cannon that he has for an arm with this score

The New Orleans Saints are taking on the New England Patriots on Saturday night, and needless to say, things are going rather well for Drew Brees in this second preseason game.

In the first quarter of this one, Brees found Brandin Cooks for a long 45-yard touchdown, which once again showed off the chemistry that these two have on the field.

This was a great sign for Brees and it might have been an even better sign for Cooks, who had a great rookie season cut short last year with an injury.

With the Saints looking to get back to the top of the mountain, this is what all New Orleans fans want to see. Things didn’t go their way last year, and some even believe that this organization might even be on the downswing. But if they’re going to rattle off plays like this, then that might not be the case.

Plus, you know they have to take some sort of pleasure doing this to the Patriots, the team that everyone seems to hate anymore.
