Stop me if you've heard this before – nobody could guard Michael Thomas on Sunday.

Thomas had a Saints record 211 receiving yards and a touchdown with 12 catches coming on just 15 targets. He was consistently the Saints' go-to receiver and delivered the game's dagger touchdown when he broke loose for 72-yard score.

And he channeled his inner Joe Horn with the celebration.
