METAIRIE, La. -- The New Orleans Saints are poised to make NFL history Sunday. It’s really just a question of how much.

Drew Brees is on pace to set the record for single-season completion percentage ... for the third time in his career.

Receiver Michael Thomas is on pace to set the record for most catches in the first two seasons of a career.

And rookie running back Alvin Kamara has a chance to accomplish a few things we haven’t seen in the past 50 years.

Here is a breakdown of the top individual accomplishments worth tracking as the Saints (11-4) head into Sunday’s season finale at Tampa Bay, much of which is courtesy of ESPN Stats & Information.

Brees: Brees’ completion percentage is at 71.9 percent for the season, better than Sam Bradford's record of 71.6 set in 2016. Before that, Brees held the record with 71.2 in 2011 and 70.6 in 2009.

Brees’ career completion percentage of 66.9 is also the best in league history, ahead of Chad Pennington’s 66.0.

“I guess I’ve got guys that run good routes and catch the ball, and we’ve got a good scheme, and we’ve got guys that block,” Brees said when asked why he has been so accurate throughout his career. “I mean, there’s so much that goes into that. It’s not just one thing or another. But I was always told that completions are good, completions are positive plays. And as [Brees’ former Chargers coach] Marty Schottenheimer used to say, ‘You’ll never go broke taking a profit.’”

A lot of Brees’ other numbers this season are uncharacteristic, however, since the Saints have relied so much more on their run game and defense.

Brees is on pace for 4,362 passing yards, 23 touchdown passes and 9 interceptions, all three of which would be his lowest totals in 12 seasons with the Saints.

Brees, who turns 39 next month, has repeatedly said he doesn’t mind any of that, since his job is to do whatever it takes to help the team win games. Saints coach Sean Payton agreed, saying this week, “We’re not in the business of playing fantasy football. ... We’re in the business of winning.”

“That’s probably one of the first criteria that you’re graded at as a quarterback, and he knows that,” Payton said.

Thomas: Thomas needs just two catches to break Jimmy Graham's franchise record of 99 receptions in a single season. And he needs five catches to pass up Jarvis Landry for the most catches through a player’s first two seasons in NFL history. Landry had 194 catches from 2014 to 2015. Thomas had 92 last season and has 98 in 2017.

Thomas’ standard answer to any kind of record talk is that catching the ball is his No. 1 job description, and he wants the Saints to keep putting him in situations as the go-to guy to help the team win.

Kamara: Where to begin?

Kamara and fellow running back Mark Ingram have already become the first duo in NFL history to each gain at least 1,426 yards from scrimmage in the same season. But if Kamara can get 74 more scrimmage yards Sunday and Ingram can get 14 more, they’ll make it an even 1,500 apiece.

Kamara is just the second rookie in NFL history to reach his current numbers of 684 rushing yards and 742 receiving yards. The other was Washington Redskins receiver Charley Taylor in 1964. Taylor finished with 755 receiving yards, so Kamara will almost certainly finish this season in a class by himself.

Kamara has seven TD runs and five TD catches. With one more touchdown catch, he’ll join former Chicago Bears Hall of Famer Gale Sayers as the only rookies ever with at least six rushing and six receiving TDs.

Kamara leads the entire NFL (veterans and rookies alike) with 6.16 yards per carry. Over the past 15 years, only one running back has had a higher average (Jamaal Charles' 6.38 for the 2010 Kansas City Chiefs).

Kamara and CB Marshon Lattimore: Lattimore is the clear front-runner for NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year. Kamara is in more of a neck-and-neck battle with Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt for Offensive Rookie of the Year. If the Saints pull off the sweep, they’ll become just the second teammates to do that in NFL history and the first since Detroit Lions running back Mel Farr and cornerback Lem Barney in 1967.

Kamara downplayed the idea of making one last case for the award Sunday, saying, “I don’t really look at that. I just play. I’m just trying to focus on what we gotta do to win. If that comes, it comes.”

But Lattimore made a pitch for Kamara while saying the Saints “need both of ‘em.”

“I just gotta be consistent, that’s the biggest thing,” Lattimore said when asked what he needs to do to cement the honor. “On the offensive side, one player (Hunt) started off hot, then calmed down a little bit. AK, he’s been doing it consistently over the weeks. So I’m just trying to be consistent every week with what I’m doing, and preparation helps me with that. ...

“Just seeing him balling on the other side, I love it. That’s my teammate ... hopefully for my career.”

Ingram: The seventh-year pro has already set career highs with 1,089 rushing yards and 12 TDs. With one more touchdown run, he’ll tie George Rogers (1981), Dalton Hilliard (1989) and Deuce McAllister (2002) for the franchise record of 13 in a season.

Cameron Jordan: The Saints’ defensive end isn’t on pace to set any NFL records. But he can set a personal best with one more sack for 13 on the season. And if he does that, his 2018 salary will climb by $250,000. (If he reaches 15 sacks, his salary will grow by a total of $750,000).
