Veteran quarterbac­ks and their projected starting offenses should be on display when Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints visit Philip Rivers and the Los Angeles Chargers in their third preseason game. Brees and the Saints had a solid 2017 season, being on the losing end of the “Minneapoli­s Miracle” in the NFC Divisional round. Had it not been for an 0-4 start, the Chargers may have been a playoff team as well in their first season in Los Angeles.
