The Saints are coming off a 51-27 thrashing at Tampa Bay last Sunday and are certainly looking for some forgiveness for their sins on the field of play. The Broncos are also coming off a loss, but that was preceded by a three-game win streak.

Additionally, Saints QB Derek Carr is still questionable, meaning backup Spencer Rattler will once again lead the team. If his performance matches last week’s, it could be one of those matches too painful to turn away from.

Bottom line: Both teams want to right the ship. Here’s how to watch this week’s matchup and what to expect from Thursday night’s games tonight (and in the coming weeks).
