Drew Brees completed 15-of-23 passes for 189 yards against the Raiders in the third preseason game. The NFL's most accurate QB carved up the Raiders defense on his way to two touchdowns and a field goal on three drives. Brees was in mid-season form, spreading the ball around, picking on Raiders CB Demarcus Van Dyke, and exploiting mismatches with athletic TE Jimmy Graham. In what may be a preview of things to come, Brees lost short touchdowns to Mark Ingram and Pierre Thomas.
