The New Orleans Saints 2020 NFL schedule features some of the best matchups in the league, including an infamous two games between Brees and Brady.

Drew Brees is set to have some absolute duels with fellow star signal-callers including Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes, Aaron Rodgers, Carson Wentz, Jimmy Garoppolo, Matt Ryan, and Matthew Stafford. The New Orleans Saints future Hall of Famer will have his quite the load this season.

The Saints are coming off a great season, winning their third consecutive NFC South title. It wasn’t just that, but the team was also one of the NFC’s best teams, winning 13 of their 16 games.

The Saints have several prime time games this year, which makes sense considering the high talent level of the teams they will be facing.

The Saints are set to face five 2019 playoff teams and six teams who had a .500 or better win-loss record in 2019. With five primetime games this season, fans will get an adequate portion of their Saints on television.
