"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.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
