A complicated game can be simplified by this truism: Top quarterback-head coach tandems last.
Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET matchup in the Superdome features two of the game's best over the past decade -- the Pittsburgh Steelers' Ben Roethlisberger and Mike Tomlin matching wits with the New Orleans Saints' Drew Brees and Sean Payton.
Brees and Payton have 117 wins together over 200 games, second to the New England Patriots' Tom Brady-Bill Belichick combo during the Super Bowl era (since 1966). Tomlin and Roethlisberger are fourth on that list with 114 wins in 187 games.
