This week's "Sunday Night Football" game may sound a little different without the voice of Al Michaels in the booth for NBC or fans in the stands of Mercedes-Benz Superdome, but it has all the ingredients of a classic as two Hall-of-Fame quarterbacks meet when Green Bay (2-0) travels to the Big Easy.
New Orleans (1-1) is in need of an easy get-right game after a lackluster performance in the Las Vegas home opener of Allegiant Stadium. Drew Brees showed his 41-year-old age and declining arm strength, picking up most of his 312 yards in garbage time of the Saints' 34-24 loss to the Raiders on "Monday Night Football." Not helping Brees' effort, the Saints will likely be without top wideout Michael Thomas for another week after he suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 1. Alvin Kamara ranks seventh in the NFL in all-purpose yards with 241 and has found the end zone three times this year.

One of the few guys to rack up more yards than Kamara on the young season is Green Bay's Aaron Jones. Jones has four touchdowns and ranks first in the league with 312 all-purpose yards, a full 53 yards better than the next closest player. Aaron Rodgers has revitalized his career following an offseason of doubts regarding how much longer the 16-year veteran has left in Green Bay. Rodgers has an adjusted QBR of 91.0, good for best in the NFL.
Below is everything to know about this week's "Sunday Night Football" game between the Packers and Saints in Week 3.

All "Sunday Night Football" games in 2020 will broadcast live on NBC. The network's TV rights deal with the NFL gives it all "Sunday Night Football" games as well as the annual Thursday night season-opener, and NBC is given a spot in the Super Bowl broadcast rotation.
Typically the NBC booth consists of Al Michaels and Cris Collinsworth, but Sunday's game is the first of several scheduled "bye weeks" for the 75-year-old Michaels. In his place will be veteran broadcaster Mike Tirico who also does play-by-play for NBC of Notre Dame football. Michele Tafoya will serve as the sideline reporter.
