Philadelphia Eagles (3-4) vs. New Orleans Saints (2-5)
Mercedes-Benz Superdome, New Orleans, Louisiana
One of the biggest games of the weekend will take place under the lights of Monday Night Football as two struggling teams look to right the ship and get their seasons back on track.
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick, who has struggled with turnovers during the 2012 season, will lead his team into New Orleans Monday night for a matchup with the struggling Saints.
Quick Take
The 3-4 Eagles head into the Superdome riding a three-game losing streak through October with the hope that November brings a positive trend.
The Saints had won two straight games following their 0-4 start to 2012, but they were blown out Sunday night in Denver.
A loss by either team could be the death blow to their playoff chances, which makes this as close to a must win as you can have in week nine.
Eagles head coach Andy Reid is coaching for his job, as anything less than a playoff appearance will ...

Michael Vick is pointing a finger at the media for the Philadelphia Eagles’ woes throughout the 2012 NFL season. The Eagles are a disappointing 3-4 this season because of the media.

2 quarterbacks, 2 increasingly desperate teams
Michael Vick and Drew Brees came into the NFL the same year.
Now, they're in the same predicament.
Both are the quarterbacks of increasingly desperate teams, the season teetering on the edge of collapse.
Brees has essentially become a one-man show for the New Orleans Saints (2-5), who are plagued by a historically leaky defense and anemic running game.
For Vick, the stakes...

I have to admit that it gets a little old scouting other teams when no matter who the opponent is the result is getting gashed 500+ yards regardless. Maybe this game at home on Monday Night could be the exception? At least Michael Vick has been struggling mightily with turnovers... but the flipside is the Saints' defense is just what the doctor ordered for an overhyped quarterback...
