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.

The 211-yard performance tops the NFL this season as Thomas becomes the first player in the league with a 200-yard receiving game this season.

Thomas, along with fellow Buckeyes Marshon Lattimore, Vonn Bell, Kurt Coleman and Eli Apple, helped the Saints knock off the previously undefeated Los Angeles Rams 45-35.
