The Atlanta Falcons and New Orleans Saints rarely play boring games. This was not one of them.
Both teams could not be stopped on offense for huge chunks of the game, leading to an overtime at an incredible 37-37. The Falcons simply looked dismal for large chunks of the game on D, with one sack and very little stopping ability minus three of their better defenders. The Saints, meanwhile, looked like one of the worst defenses in the NFL, which I suppose is a cheerful note.
Atlanta tried repeatedly to put this one away, and perhaps with Keanu Neal, Deion Jones and Takkarist McKinley playing, they would have.
