An overseas home game
New Orleans is the designated host when the Saints face Pittsburgh at Stade de France on Sunday. The Saints’ official game page identifies it as the NFL’s first regular-season game in Paris. For American viewers, the unusual venue brings an early start.
Set the right clock
Kickoff is listed for 8:30 a.m. Central, or 9:30 a.m. Eastern. The stadium lists 2:30 p.m. local time in France. Check the team’s viewing page for coverage available where you live rather than assuming your usual Sunday channel carries the game.
Different starts to the season
The official matchup page lists Pittsburgh at 4–2 and New Orleans at 2–4. The Saints lead the all-time series 9–8, although Pittsburgh won their most recent meeting in November 2022.
