Saints Over Falcons
Even if these two teams end up being disappointments for the 2016 season, it’s always fun for football fans to watch the New Orleans Saints and Atlanta Falcons go at it–especially when it takes place on Monday Night Football.
The best part about this NFC South matchup is the Saints and Falcons have two of the top offenses in football. While the Falcons are flourishing with Julio Jones and Mohamed Sanu in the passing game, the Saints are seeing a dynamic duo emerge of their own thanks to Brandin Cooks and Willie Snead.
If the first two games are any indication of what’s to come, this game could turn out to be one of the highest scoring of Week 3.
As for which team will come up on the winning end, let’s just say New Orleans better take advantage of playing at home in this one. After back-to-back frustrating losses, the Saints realize the importance of this game to avoid falling to 0-3 on the season.
