FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Atlanta Falcons coach Dan Quinn got straight to the point when discussing what his team needs to do to compete with the high-powered New Orleans Saints on Thursday (8:20 p.m. ET, NBC).
"When you're in the red zone against them, you better finish with it in the end zone because they're certainly able to score and have shown that this year," Quinn said. "So field goals against them isn't going to cut it, the way they're putting points up."
The Saints (9-1), winners of nine straight, have averaged 48 points in their past three games and lead the league with 37.
