OFFENSE: At no time this season did Michael Thomas not give us the impression that he was anything less than a stud. The final regular-season game of his rookie season only cemented his resume, as he caught 10 passes for 156 yards and a touchdown in the Saints’ 38-32 loss to Atlanta in the Georgia Dome. Thomas became the most decorated rookie receiver in franchise history this season, setting a rookie record for receiving yards (1,137) and receiving touchdowns (nine), breaking the marks set by Marques Colston in 2006. And he was at his best in the second half against the Falcons, catching seven passes for 101 yards and his touchdown, and also recovering a fumble.
