The Atlanta Falcons enter Week 18 relatively healthy, which is the best case scenario given a matchup with the rival New Orleans Saints is on the docket. And even though there are no playoff implications on the line in Atlanta on Sunday, both franchises badly want to prevail in this affair.
The Falcons are circling their first sweep of the Saints since 2016, but that would also require snapping a four-game win streak from their NFC South rivals. Luckily, their chances just received a massive bump after it was reported that a blood clot was discovered in star WR Chris Olave's lung.
