Steelers vs. Saints Set for 2026 NFL Paris Game Amid Protests

The Pittsburgh Steelers are preparing to face the New Orleans Saints in the inaugural NFL game in Paris, taking place in the suburb of Saint-Denis. Scheduled for 9:30 a.m. ET at Stade de France, this matchup comes amid ongoing civil unrest in France.

The Steelers, led by Aaron Rodgers, aim for their third consecutive victory against the Saints, who are guided by Tyler Shough. Pittsburgh's ground game, featuring Jaylen Warren, who ranks seventh in the NFL with 460 rushing yards, will be crucial against a Saints defense allowing 138 rushing yards per game.

The latest betting odds favor the Steelers by 3 points, with an over/under set at 43 total points. SportsLine's model, which has successfully predicted NFL outcomes, suggests the game will exceed the point total, projecting 50 combined points based on recent performances from both teams.
