What if Saints played Patriots in Super Bowl 53? Watch our LIVE Madden simulation

One common thought after Super Bowl 53 was that the New Orleans Saints would have put up more points than the Los Angeles Rams did against the New England Patriots.

In that game, the Rams managed to score only a field goal in the 13-3 loss that gave the Patriots a sixth Super Bowl win.

The Saints have career passing yards leader Drew Brees at quarterback, and when the offense was at its best during the season, it commonly put up 30 and sometimes 40 points. The Rams also had a lot of success during the season, but against the Patriots, quarterback Jared Goff looked lost.

After the game, Rams coach Sean McVay admitted to feeling like he was out-coached.

Bill Belichick will have that effect on opponents.

Unfortunately, there’s no telling how the Saints and the offensive-minded Sean Payton would have fared against these Patriots.

Perhaps the best we can offer is by putting the two teams on the field in an EA Sports Madden 19 simulation, which we’ll stream live on our New Orleans Saints on NOLA.com Facebook page.

Kickoff is set for 10 a.m. Thursday (Feb. 7).
