NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 16 (UPI) -- Drew Brees amassed 307 passing yards and hurled four touchdown passes Sunday in the New Orleans Saints' 41-0 dismantling of Tampa Bay.

Brees completed 26-of-39 passes, finding Lance Moore, Joe Morgan, David Thomas and Darren Sproles on scoring strikes as the Saints (6-8) snapped a three-game skid.

Jabari Greer led New Orleans' defense with two interceptions.

The reeling Buccaneers (6-8), meanwhile, dropped their fourth straight as Josh Freeman was picked off four times overall and lost a fumble.

The Tampa Bay signal-caller completed 26-of-47 passes for 279 yards while Doug Martin was limited to just 35 all-purpose yards in the loss.
