DREW Brees threw four touchdown passes as the New Orleans Saints breezed to a 38-17 win over the Miami Dolphins in a clash of two unbeaten NFL teams.

Brees connected on 30-of-39 passes and 413 yards for the Saints, who were coming off a dominating 31-7 win over Arizona and are now 4-0 on the season.

Brees surpassed the 300-yard passing mark for the ninth consecutive game, tying his own NFL record set over the 2011-2012 seasons.

Jimmy Graham caught four passes for 100 yards and two touchdowns and Darren Sproles added seven catches for 114 yards and one touchdown for the Saints in front of a crowd of 73,118 at Superdome stadium.

Marques Colston finished with 96 yards on seven catches in the win.

Ryan Tannehill struggled for the Dolphins, completing 22-of-35 passes for 249 yards with one touchdown, three interceptions and one lost fumble. Miami fell to 3-1 on the season.

Miami's Brandon Gibson caught six passes for 71 yards and Charles Clay grabbed a half dozen passes for 42 yards and a touchdown in the loss.

The Saints cruised through the second half, outscoring the Dolphins 17-7.

New Orleans reached the end zone on their first touch of the half as Brees hit Benjamin Watson with a four-yard touchdown strike.

Brees then found Graham down the right side for a 43-yard touchdown to give New Orleans a commanding 35-10 lead.
