GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Drew Brees two-game funk ended with an offensive eruption in the desert.The New Orleans quarterback threw for 389 yards and four touchdowns, leading the New Orleans Saints past the Arizona Cardinals 48-41 Sunday in the highest-scoring game in the NFL this season.Its good for him, its good for the coach, too, Saints coach Sean Payton said.Brees, who had no TDs and six interceptions his previous two games, completed 37 of 48 with no picks.It wasnt anything earth shattering this week, he said. It wasnt a wholesale change of anything. We just got back to our stuff.It was Brees 21st career game with at least four TD passes and no interceptions, tying Tom Brady for most in NFL history.Brandin Cooks caught seven passes for a career-best 186 yards for the Saints (6-8), including touchdown plays of 65 and 45 yards .Knowing they (the Cardinals) were the No. 1 defensive team in the league, as a competitor you want to accept those challenges and bring it on, Cooks said. As a team, that is what we did. `David Johnson rushed for 53 yards and caught four passes for 55 yards for Arizona (5-8-1). The second-year back became the first player in NFL history to have at least 100 yards from scrimmage in the first 14 games of a season.As impressive of a stat that is, you kind of expect it, Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer said. Thats how good of a player he is.Johnson rushed for two touchdowns, giving him 17 TDs this season and 30 in the first 30 games as a pro.Palmer threw for 318 yards and two scores in a game that clinched the first losing season for the Cardinals in Bruce Arians four years as coach. Arians praised the play of his makeshift blocking unit, but its strong game wasnt enough.Im extremely proud of the guys on the offensive line, he said, and shocked that we gave up that many points.The teams amassed 913 yards, 488 by New Orleans, 425 by Arizona, which finished 4-3-1 at home.Thats a very good offense with a great quarterback, a great play caller, a lot of weapons, very good offensive line Palmer said of the Saints. You dont expect to come in and play the field position game and kick field goals. You have to come in and score touchdowns, and they outlasted us.The teams traded touchdowns on four possessions in the second half before Brees put New Orleans ahead for good, 41-34, with a 4-yard scoring pass to Michael Thomas with 5:33 to play.A moment later, the Cardinals Brittan Golden fumbled and Ken Crawley recovered for the Saints at the Arizona 29. That led to Tim Hightowers 2-yard touchdown run that made it a two-score game with 3:27 remaining.Palmer threw 30 yards to John Brown for a score with 2:19 left, but the onside kick try went out of bounds and the Saints ran out the clock.Brees threw for three touchdowns in the first half, including the two long passes to Cooks.His only bad moment came when Marcus Golden stripped the ball out of his hands and Calais Campbell grabbed it out of the air. The 6-foot-8 lineman rambled 53 yards for a touchdown.CAMPBELLS LAST?Campbell also had two sacks in what could be his final home game for Arizona.Its just the harsh reality that it could be, he said. I really hope its not, but well see how that goes.His two sacks made him the only player in franchise history to have at least six sacks in seven different seasons.But the 30-year-old lineman is a free agent after this, his ninth NFL season. And theres wide speculation the Cardinals wont re-sign him, opting to devote their resources elsewhere.FITZGERALD MOVES UPArizonas Larry Fitzgerald caught seven passes to give him 1,116 career receptions. He passed Hall of Famer Jerry Rice (1,115) for the most catches in a players first 200 games in NFL history.Fitzgerald and his good friend and former teammate, Anquan Boldin of Detroit, each played his 200th game on Sunday.INJURIESArizona lost cornerback Marcus Cooper to a back injury early in the second half.UP NEXTSaints: Host the Buccaneers next Saturday in the final home game of the season.Cardinals: Visit Seattle next Saturday, a rematch of NFC West foes who tied 6-6 earlier in the year, a far cry from this 89-point affair.---For more NFL coverage: AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Stephen Piscotty Jersey .

Europes League of Legends campaign started on such a disastrous note that many had given up hope. In the process, such doubters had overlooked H2ks history of prowess on the Rift, dismissing its viability following a 1W-2L showing before the start of the second week of the 2016 World Championship.H2k, however, decided there would be no EUlogy after all. It qualified to the World Championship playoffs in style, winning four games in a row -- twice against EDward Gaming, one of the favorites going into the tournament.The doubters forgot that, on paper, H2k had been a clear favorite for Group B qualification. It had the potential to upset EDG provided the squad performed to the standard it showcased in Europe throughout the year.Week One: AdaptationThe whole may be greater than the sum of its parts, but the parts certainly matter. H2k players Marcin Jankos Jankowski, Kostantinos FORG1VEN Tzortziou and Oskar VandeR Bogdan had had limited international experience before their World Championship appearance, and they hadnt undergone the rigors of scrimmages and stage play on a global scale.In theory, H2k features strong lanes with a penchant for brutal dominion over opponents. In practice, its more of a challenge than it might seem to translate a lane advantage into a win. For example, the teamwork required may be daunting, and difficulties might be further aggravated by the stage fright that many performers experience when playing in an unfamiliar place. For VandeR and his teammates, the World Championship represented such an environment.H2k held the initiative throughout its first two games, although it only won one of them, but its third bout (against EDG) was over at the start. The Europeans execution lacked polish, leaving them vulnerable to devastating counterattacks. Ahq feasted upon H2ks lack of vision (and ensuing exploitable decisions), and EDG capitalized on lapses of focus across the board to snowball from the top lane down.Without those lapses, H2ks moves would have tipped the game in its favor as it would have preserved map control while building an advantage, as was the case against INTZ eSports. However, the teams reliance on Andrei Odoamne Pascu as a sparkplug for teamfight initiation ended up failing it as much as the backline did, and his foray into Rumble against EDG turned fruitless following a series of misplays in a counter-gank situation.Week Two: ConfidenceDespite their week one showing, H2k was not done. The talk about the region -- much of which was rather fatalistic -- did not apply to this squad, as it held the keys to a number of tiebreaker situations for second place.dddddddddddd. H2k would still be able to contend for first place if they swept their week two contests 3-0.Throughout H2ks journey through the European League Championship Series (counting 2015), the team has relied on contributions from the top lane off of a limited gold income, and Odoamne had demonstrated his ability to impact other lanes with comparatively less gold than his counterparts across the world. His Jayce against ahq received more jungle attention and reminded opponents of his ability to play tanks and carries to successful effect; his takeovers on Rumble were surprising unless one looked deeper: his 0W-4L stat on Rumble in 2016 before week two concealed an 8W-3L record in 2015.The bottom laners also hit their stride as VandeR steered away from the risky gambles he had made during week one, allowing Odoamne, Ryu Ryu Sang-wook and Jankos to snowball the lane if they hadnt already.Come crunch time, the focus and communication jitters that plagued H2k disappeared, save for an ahq Baron Nashor steal, which left the team speechless until VandeR reinitiated the communication process, according to an interview. The often-emotional crew (with Jankos at the core) was able to refocus on the game and evaluate its winning conditions on-the-fly, paving the way for a Group C takeover.A new hopeIn retrospect, H2ks first-place seed in Group C allowed it to dodge a hefty bullet. As the sole Western first seed alongside three South Korean squads, it has been able to postpone confrontations with SK Telecom T1, ROX Tigers and Samsung Galaxy to the semifinals at the soonest.Had it finished second in the group, its road to the finals could have been comparatively testier, if not impossible. Instead, EDG will be the one facing SK Telecom T1 and -- if it succeeds -- the winner of the ROX Tigers versus Royal Never Give Up contest in the semifinals.H2k had the best possible outcome among second seed opponents, drawing the unpredictable Albus NoX Luna -- the first wildcard team to ever qualify for Worlds quarterfinals. Despite its undeniable prowess, ANXs defeats at the hands of ROX Tigers and G2 Esports highlighted decisionmaking blunders from the jungle, a weakness Jankos would be wise to exploit come Oct. 16.
