The New Orleans Saints face the Los Angeles Chargers on Saturday, Aug. 20 in the NFL Preseason. Here’s all the info you need to watch.

It’s always worth watching when the New Orleans Saints face the Los Angeles Chargers considering the two teams history. With the teams joint practicing, they’re finally getting a chance to show how much they’ve learned from each other. This game also marks the second in the Chargers new stadium.

As I’m sure everyone knows, the Saints haven’t won a preseason game since 2014. Winning against the Chargers could set them on the right path. Despite preseason not mattering in the long run, it gives the team a boost of confidence. After losing to the Browns last week, confidence is something the Saints need.

While it’s unclear if Drew Brees will hit the field, there’s a small chance he will. Seeing Brees play against his former team is always a delight. This game will hopefully mark the start of Marshon Lattimore’s time on the field. After being held out of practice for a week, fans are eager to see Lattimore’s progress. The other big-name fans are looking forward to is Adrian Peterson. Sean Payton hasn’t exactly been vocal about Peterson, playing in the preseason but who knows?

After an abysmal loss to the Seahawks last week, the Chargers need to pull together and show they’ve changed. With new coach Anthony Lynn, there’s a lot at stake for the team right now but they did show some promise. They vastly improved their offensive line, Travis Benjamin is already looking in regular season form but they don’t have a solid backup quarterback.

The Chargers defense will hopefully have a chance to shine, unlike last week. Hopefully, Rivers and Brees both hit the field like old times, too. With the Chargers bringing out some of their veterans, the Saints will have their hands full. Even though it’s preseason, the game is a fun watch and someone to keep your attention until the solar eclipse.
