The NFC’s top two teams meet in one of the most anticipated ESPN Monday Night Football games of the season when Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints (9-2) face Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks (10-1).
According to Elias, in the 44-year history of MNF, this is the first matchup between teams with Monday Night winning streaks of seven games or more (Saints, nine; Seahawks, seven). And, with a combined 19-3 record in 2013, the Saints and Seahawks boast the second-highest collective winning percentage all-time for MNF opponents with .864 (among teams playing at the 10-game mark or later in a season). (In 1990, Giants (10-1) vs. 49ers (10-1) had a collective .909 winning percentage.)
Seattle enters the game with a franchise record 13-game home win streak. This is the first meeting between the two teams since the Seahawks defeated the Saints 41-36 in a 2010 NFC Wild Card game.
