It&rsquo;s basically our game plan against your game plan right off the bat, a little bit of mystery. Not sure what we&rsquo;re going to do, not sure what they&rsquo;re going to do, so when you can go down and get points, it makes you feel good about what you put together for the game plan.&rdquo;</p><p>&bull;<strong>How satisfying was it to score seven touchdowns against a team like the Giants?</strong></p><p>&ldquo;Our mentality is always an aggressive one. Even in the third and fourth quarters when it&rsquo;s a three-possession game, we&rsquo;re still firing away. &hellip; It&rsquo;s nice when you can be up by that much. We can run, run, run, hard play-action, throwing the ball down the field, still executing our offense.&rdquo;</p><p>&bull;<strong>When you were a free agent, it came down to the Saints and Dolphins. Any thoughts about that this week?</strong></p><p>&ldquo;No, because nothing could have worked out better than it has. This is where I belong, and I felt like this was a calling. I don&rsquo;t think about it at all.&rdquo;</p><p><strong><span class="subhead">Inside the AFC</span></strong></p><p>In the two games since the Browns traded Braylon Edwards, QB Derek Anderson has completed just 11 of 41 passes.</p><p><strong><span class="subhead">Inside the NFC</span></strong></p><p>The Packers committed 13 penalties for 130 yards in last week&rsquo;s win at Detroit and are on pace for 138 penalties for 1,149 yards, which would be franchise records in both categories.</p><p><hr class="infobox-hr-separator" /> <div class="infobox"> <strong><span class="infobox-head">Saints QB Drew Brees </span></strong><br /> </div>
