With a combined 19-3 record in 2013, the Saints and Seahawks boast the second-highest collective winning percentage all-time for MNF opponents (.864), among teams playing at the 10-game mark or later in a season, according to Elias Sports. Seattle enters the game with a franchise record 13-game home win streak. This is the first meeting between the two teams since the Seahawks defeated the Saints 41-36 in a 2010 NFC Wild Card game.
