It seemed like everyone had this game marked on their calendars three weeks ago. After two intense games last year, the Falcons-Saints rivalry appeared to be back in full force. Players were going at with each other on both sides of the field. Every point had to be earned, as both teams drastically improved defensively following several dreadful seasons. Watching Julio Jones and Marshon Lattimore battle on nearly every snap was a joy to watch for every football fan. As much as both fanbases dislike each other, a rivalry is at it’s best when both teams are thriving at the same time.
