Sunday night in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome there will be plenty of story lines to follow. The New Orleans Saints will try and pick up their first win of the season under the watchful eye of head coach Sean Payton. Saints quarterback Drew Brees can break a record held by Johnny Unitas for over 50 years are just two of the more important ones.
Apparently when Drew Brees talks, the NFL listens.
The Saints quarterback requested permission for Sean Payton, Mickey Loomis and Joe Vitt to attend Sunday night's game against San Diego and the NFL has granted that request.

The two are currently tied at 47 games.

As we head into week number four in the NFL, two teams are still looking for win number one. So, which winless team has the best chance at the Lombardi Trophy?

If ever there was a sound that could be described as Monday, this would be that sound. Turn up your speakers and sing along with the magic sheep.
