The Philadelphia Eagles will face off against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday in a Week 5 contest between two teams who had much higher ambitions than their current 1-3 records suggest. Today's game has a scheduled start time of 1 p.m. ET and takes place from Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The game can be watched on TV on the Fox network or online through live stream via the link below.
The Saints finally got a win on the board last week to move to 1-3, and they will hope to build some momentum with a second straight win today over the hapless Eagles.
The Saints claimed a win against the Dallas Cowboys in a dramatic game on Sunday Night Football, with Dre Brees throwing to CJ Spiller for an 80 yard game winning touchdown right at the start of overtime.
The Saints have come up against some top teams on the road this season so far, losing to the Arizona Cardinals and the Carolina Panthers, but will hope for more luck today against an Eagles side suffering badly after their 20-23 loss to division rivals the Washington Redskins last week.
Earlier this week on Thursday Night Football, the Indianapolis Colts and Houston Texans faced off with the Colts claiming a hard earned 27-20 victory.
The story of the night was Andre Johnson, who caught two touchdown passes against his former team to secure the win for the Colts.
Johnson of course spent 12 seasons in the NFL with the Texans before being released by Houston earlier this year in March. Johnson finished the the game with six catches for 77 yards, and ultimately proved the difference between the teams.
The victory meant that the Colts have won a record breaking 16 consecutive AFC South games, the longest such streak in the NFL.
The Colts claimed the win despite losing star quarterback Andrew Luck to injury for the second game in a row. He was replaced by 40 year old veteran Matt Hasselbeck, who was also thought not to be in perfect fitness after missing training just two days before on Tuesday.
