"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.

      Frank comment about Bryce? "Excited"

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      100%.  In his heart, he absolutely thought he’d have Stroud. What he may have promised will never be known, but I can’t imagine him taking the gig unless he would be allowed to get ‘his guy’. When BY was the pick and day 1 of camp concluded, Frank went in to ‘I’m too old for this ish’ mode.  To me, His comments show that he holds no ill will with Bryce, but he is less than enamored with the org.

      That’s not true at all. We’ve made some bad decisions, yes, but overall we absolutely are not doing what you stated since Dan took over. I agree with you with Fitt tho.   Last year we heavily invested in OL and this year in DL. A mix of vet proven and young potential. Over those 2 years have also slowly built up the WR room. Those are long term foundational type moves. Assume the DL pans out as well as the OL did, you now start adding tier 2 pieces such as LB, S, and TE.

      True, but on the flip side we didn’t know if TMac would be there at 8. You gotta roll with guesses at some point and then adapt as things change. Let’s see what Morgan does
