Number Two: New Orleans Saints vs Kansas City Chiefs (Week 15)

Former MVP Patrick Mahomes will come into New Orleans for the first time and face off against MVP snub Drew Brees is what is destined to be a classic. How fitting does it seem that in what is likely to be Drew Brees’ final season, he faces the next great signal-caller in Mahomes.

The Chiefs and Saints both have extremely explosive offenses and underrated defenses.

The Chiefs were the 2019-20 Super Bowl Champions and will look to bring their energy and high flying offense to the big easy where one of the most underrated defenses in the NFL will look to shut them down.

Chiefs’ safety Tyrann Mathieu will also return home to New Orleans where he grew up and played for LSU. This game should be a great game and it could be the exact game we see played again in February.

Maybe, unlike the team’s game against the 49ers last season, this will look like a high-scoring game and end up as a low-scoring one. Actually, who are we kidding? This, in all likelihood, will be a shootout.
