New Orleans at Green Bay, 1:25 p.m., Ch. 13
These were the two highest-scoring teams in the league last season, but both currently hold losing records. Green Bay is averaging 19 points, tied for No. 26 in the league, while the Saints have allowed more points than all but one team. Desperation is going to make this game more compelling, though, as teams expected to contend try to correct an early nosedive in the standings.
