Panthers vs Saints channel, start time

The Panthers vs Saints game is set to begin at 1 p.m. ET / 10 a.m. PT today (Sunday, Oct. 25).
It's on FOX, as a part of Week 7 of the NFL 2020 season.

The Panthers vs Saints live stream features two teams that defy simple description. Each has had its high and low points this season, and while the Saints are heavily favored for Sunday's contest at the New Orleans Superdome, anything can happen in this NFL live stream.

Psychologically, the 3-3 Panthers are certainly underdogs, coming off last week's contest against the Chicago Bears in which they never gained the upper hand. That 23-16 defeat broke a three-game winning streak that saw the team recover its standing.

The Saints, by contrast, are fresh off a pair of wins, and some rest from a bye week, with a 3-2 record that puts them in second place in the NFC South.

The directive for the Panthers is clear: Don't repeat the mistakes of last week. It was the worst game of the season for quarterback Teddy Bridgewater, who completed just 16 of 29 throws for zero touchdowns. (He was also sacked twice, losing 25 yards.) But that's not typical Bridgewater: Even with last week's mishaps, he boasts an impressive 70.9 percent completion rate this season.

Historical precedent is no guide for this game. The teams are tied 25-25 in the regular season, with the Saints prevailing in their one playoff meeting. The oddsmakers at BetMGM currently favor the Saints by 7 points.
