The New Orleans Saints and the Tennessee Titans will fight it out at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana on Sunday in Week 9 of the NFL 2015 regular season. The game has a scheduled start time of 1 p.m. ET and can be watched on TV on the CBS network or watched online through live stream via the link below.
The Saints will be expected to get back to a winning record today with a home win over the Titans.
Tennessee have suffered a tough season so far, and a road game to New Orleans is not expected to give them any relief. The 1-6 Titans will have to cause a big upset to inflict a fifth loss of the season today on the 4-4 Saints, and not many are expecting anything but more pain for the Titans.
Tennessee went 3-20 over less than two seasons under Ken Whisenhunt, and he was finally fired earlier this week. That means Mike Mularkey will take over and try to immediately put a halt to a slide that has seen the Titans lose six straight games coming into this clash.
Mularkey went 16-32 previously as head coach at the Buffalo Bills and Jacksonville Jaguars, and he has been handed the reigns for the remainder of this season.
Titans president Steve Underwood has said, "When you're not winning and you can't win, that's when change happens in the NFL."
Earlier this week on Thursday Night Football, the Cincinnati Bengals moved to 8-0 with ease as they demolished a hapless Cleveland Browns team 31-10.
The Browns had been able to keep in touch with the mighty Bengals until the half way stage of the game, and being just 14-10 down after the second period had given their fans hope of an upset.
But the second half saw the Bengals wake up and in particular the final quarter they piled on the pain for the Browns to hand them their seventh defeat of the season so far.
The Thursday Night Football game saw quarterback Andy Dalton throw three touchdown passes to Tyler Eifert as the Browns had no answer to their connection.
Moving to 8-0 sets a new franchise record for the Bengals; it is the first time they have ever been on 8-0 in their history, and is also their longest ever winning streak within a single season.
As well as Dalton and the Bengals offense piling on the pain for the Browns, the Cincinnati defense also played their part by completely shutting down Cleveland in the second half, allowing them just 32 yards and two first downs in total.
Dalton finished on 21 of 27 for 234 yards, and Eifert's three touchdowns move him to nine in total for the season so far, which also ties him for the franchise record for a tight end.
