New Orleans starting quarterback Drew Brees returned from injured reserve after missing four games because of fractured ribs and a collapsed lung!

When?

Where?

In New Orleans Louisiana at Mercedes - Benz Super Dome!

In that game Drew Brees had a sluggish start!

Hill, the Saints' Swiss army knife, notched his sixth rushing touchdown of the 2020 campaign on the 1-yard scamper. It's the most rushing touchdowns by a Saints quarterback in a season, surpassing Archie Manning (1977). “according to an article by Sam Shannon on neworleanssaints.com

Today the New Orleans Saints are hosting the Minnesota Vikings!

When?

On Christmas Day!

Where?

In New Orleans Louisiana!

With that in mind I am asking this question!

How is Drew Brees going to perform when New Orleans host Minnesota today?

Right now I don’t have an answer to this question but what I do know is that when Drew Brees returned to the gridiron verses the Kansas City Chiefs he had a sluggish start and was completed 15-of-28 passes for 234 yards and three touchdowns, including a 51-yard strike to Emmanuel Sanders that helped set up a Taysom Hill touchdown and that the New Orleans Saints who are member of the NFC South come into the game with a record of 10-4!

Why?

Because the New Orleans Saints lost their previous game!

When?

On Sunday December 20,2020!

Why?

Patrick Mahomes who is the starting quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs proved to be too much in the end, completing 26-of-47 passes for 254 yards and three scores. “according to an article by Sam Shannon on neworleanssaints.com

While the Minnesota Vikings who are a member of the NFC North come into the game with a record of 6-8!

Why?

Because the Minnesota Vikings lost their previous game!

To who?

The Chicago Bears by score of 33-27!

When?

On Sunday December 20,2020!

Where?

In Minneapolis Minnesota!

Why?

Minnesota  failed to convert fourth-and-1s on Sunday against Chicago.

The first time, the Vikings didn't have to go for it and first sent on the punting unit in the second quarter. The Bears stuffed Dalvin Cook for no gain.

The second time, it was do or virtually die time with two minutes remaining in the game. Chicago's Brent Urban pressured Kirk Cousins, forcing the quarterback to backpedal and launch a fadeaway pass toward Tyler Conklin that fell incomplete.

The Bears kicked field goals after each possession that began in Vikings territory, which was good for the winning 6-point margin in a 33-27 victory that gives Chicago a chance at the NFC Playoffs.

The loss doesn't technically eliminate Minnesota with two games to play, but the Vikings chances are razor thin.

Minnesota had struggled to stop Chicago, but rookie Cameron Dantzler intercepted Mitchell Trubisky in the end zone with 2:57 remaining in the game, giving Minnesota the ball at its own 20.

A 3-yard run by Cook was followed with a 6-yard reception by the running back and a run for no gain on third-and-1 that Minnesota hurried to call before the 2-minute warning. “according to an article by Craig Peters on vikings.com

Kickoff is set for 4:30pm from Mercedes - Benz Super Dome!

The game is going to be televised on Fox!
