Brees throws five TD passes in Saints' rout of Bills

NEW ORLEANS -- Drew Brees had five touchdown passes and 332 yards, and the New Orleans Saints pulled away for a 35-17 victory over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.

Saints tight end Jimmy Graham played after missing practice most of the week with a left foot injury and scored on 13- and 15-yard passes over the middle, powering through tackles at the goal line both times.

Rookie Saints receiver Kenny Stills had touchdowns of 69 and 42 yards and Lance Moore snagged a 15-yard scoring pass in his return from a hand injury that sidelined him three games.

Bills quarterback Thad Lewis was sacked four times, intercepted once, lost two fumbles and appeared shaken up at times, but stayed in the game, finishing with 234 yards passing and one touchdown. Buffalo's Fred Jackson scored on a 1-yard run.
