"When we play Atlanta, it oftentimes comes down to the final drive. It did in last year's games, and I'm sure it will on Sunday," Saints coach Sean Payton said.

opening line had Falcons by 1, now it has Saints by 3

last year's two wins by New Orleans over Atlanta were decided by a grand total of 10 points. Seven of the past 11 games in the rivalrty have been decided by four points or less

Watching a little bit of this game trying not to puke.  Either the Saints' offense looks godly or the Falcons' defense looks like pure trash.  Probably a little bit of both to be honest.

 

Drive undone by a penalty and an uncharacteristic Drew Brees miss.  Brees has all day and receivers running all over the place wide open.

couple posts on a Bucs forum:

For those that saw the Falcons/Saints game today...which I'm sure many here did..... it was a great game...and a great fight.

Wow.

Those two teams are an a whole different level . That game looked like a freakin 12 round Heavy Weight Fight between Ali and Frazier. They were primed-up like it was a playoff game

The Saints, Falcon game was an example of how this game is designed to be played, sad only a few of the current teams can get close.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
