Who are the Saints without Drew Brees?

The New Orleans Saints star quarterback will undergo surgery on this throwing thumb and is expected to miss approximately six weeks of football. Without Brees, what looked like a winnable game against a surprisingly soft Seattle Seahawks team now feels just out of reach.

If Teddy Bridgewater is going to succeed in relief, or at least post a couple wins in Brees’ absence, other things are going to have to go well. Last week, they didn’t. The Saints defensive line has been shaky. Tight end Jared Cook has underwhelmed. Against the Rams, New Orleans racked up 11 penalties.

The usual shining stars for the Saints also came up short last week. Playmakers like Alvin Kamara and Michael Thomas didn’t produce at their usual level without their old general on the field.

On the bright side, all of this happened against a strong Rams team and while the Saints were adjusting to the shock of losing Brees. Perhaps, against a soft Seattle team, things will be different.

Yes, the Seahawks are 2-0, but it is about the weakest undefeated start imaginable. Seattle has squeaked by an awful Bengals team and a narrowly edged out a Steelers team reeling from the loss of Big Ben for the season.

While the Seahawks once again enter a favorable matchup against the Brees-free Saints, it’s not hard to imagine this team finding a way to lose.

Thus far, quarterback Russell Wilson has played well, and receiver D.K. Metcalf has come into his own. But, that connection has masked some weaknesses on this Seahawks squad. Chris Carson has had three fumbles in two weeks. The offensive line looks bad. The defense almost let Mason Rudolph come back against them.

This Seattle team could be a paper tiger.

Saints vs. Seahawks live stream: How to watch NFL online

1) Sling TV

Sling TV

Both Sling Blue ($25 per month) or Sling Orange + Blue ($40 per month)  include NFL Network and a number of sports channels—like three ESPN channels, NBCSN, and FS1—and it’s still a nice perk that Sling subscribers can order a la carte packagesSling TV also offers a special Latino package for bilingual viewers. Sling TV is currently offering a deal where you can subscribe for 40% off the regular price for the first month of your subscription. That means Sling Blue would cost $15, and Sling Orange + Blue would cost $25. (Here’s a complete guide to Sling TV channels and our Sling TV review.)

For $10 extra per month, you can get NFL RedZone via the Sling Blue Sports Extra package.

How to use AirTV with Sling

AirTV solves one of the Sling’s biggest problems: The inability to receive all of your local channels. By purchasing a basic AirTV for $79.99 or the AirTV Player for $119.99, you can merge those local channels into your Sling TV, (or on your mobile device if you have the basic AirTV). As the Daily Dot wrote in its AirTV review, “it’s practically magic.”

The basic AirTV is a dual-tuner streaming device, while the AirTV Player is basically an upgraded Chromecast that has Netflix preinstalled. You’ll still need to own an HD antenna because even though AirTV gets you access to your local channels, it doesn’t actually physically show them to you.

But AirTV—which has no monthly fee—serves to strengthen one of Sling’s biggest weaknesses compared to other live streaming services like Hulu with Live TVYouTube TV, and PlayStation Vue. All those services have plenty of local channels.

Saints vs. Seahawks: Why it matters

You have to give the Seahawks the edge in this game, as Russell Wilson is great at finding a way to win against weaker opponents. With the Cardinals coming up in Week 4, Seattle could start 4-0 before their schedule takes a tougher turn.

A victory for the Seahawks isn’t a sure thing. Teddy Bridgewater has started games in his career and he often posted decent enough numbers before the Vikings parted ways with him. With a supporting cast this strong, it’s not hard to imagine the Saints grinding out a couple of wins in Brees’ absence.

While the Saints have a more talented roster overall, they are likely going to have to play very well and avoid mistakes if they want a victory here. By contrast, this Seattle team has shown they can have a messy moment here and there and rely on Wilson’s passing and Pete Carroll’s coaching to bail them out.

If Seattle wins here, they will remain competitive in the NFC as their schedule toughens up. If the Saints can find a path to victory, New Orleans might just survive Brees’ absence.

Though this is an early-season game, this matchup has the feeling that it could help either team keep their hopes alive, and set them up for a stronger road to the playoffs.
