CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Atlanta Falcons (7-5) host the New Orleans Saints (9-3) at 8:25 tonight on NBC and the NFL Network. The Saints are looking to extend their lead in the NFC South and a loss by the Falcons would leave them three games behind with three games left.
The new Mercedes-Benz Stadium has not been much of a home field advantage for the Falcons, who are 3-3 at home.
The Falcons face a Saints squad led by quarterback Drew Brees, who has passed for 3,298 yards and 17 touchdowns. His leading receiver is Michael Thomas who has 75 receptions for 875 yards and three touchdowns.
