A close game in the mix. Saints taking on the Falcons, another in-division
00:06
toe-to-toe battle. Falcons came out on top 26-24. Defensive battle in the
00:11
beginning, but regardless, Kirk Cousins and company continue to shine. You got
00:16
Drake London who led the wide receiving group with 64 receiving yards. You got
00:20
Kirk Cousins 238 passing yards, one interceptions, no passes to the
00:25
touchdown zone though. They open the scoring, but the Saints continue to
00:28
respond every time the Falcons started to get ahead. What'd you see in this one?
00:32
Oh, what I saw in this one is, I'm gonna say a bit of a fluky game, and I
00:37
partially want to say that because I was on the under in this game, but you know
00:42
we saw the Falcons, they didn't score any offensive touchdowns. We saw their
00:47
touchdowns come from defense and special teams. So yeah, the Falcons won. I was on
00:52
the Falcons as well as on the Falcons on the under, so I got one of them right, but
00:55
I would say ran on the bad side of variance because of those fluky
00:58
touchdowns. We are continuing to see Kyle Pitts play basically no role in the
01:04
Falcons passing offense, and we also saw Bijan Robinson play a very, very
01:09
limited role, which Raheem Morris had some comments after the game with saying
01:13
he wanted a role with Tyler Algier a bit more. You know, something that likes a
01:17
good amount of consistency when it comes to backfields. Robinson is a player that
01:20
again should be pushing towards 20 total touches. When he has seven carries for
01:24
28 yards and only four receptions like that's not good enough. He is too good
01:29
to not have the ball in his hands. So ultimately, I think the Falcons need to
01:32
get a few things worked out on offense. You know, I said when we previewed this
01:36
game last weekend and on Thursday, like this was a huge game for the Saints
01:41
because they started off to know there's more 90 points of doing this, that the
01:44
other thing they're now two and two, like they fell back down to earth. They
01:47
also had no passing touchdowns from car and the touchdowns that they had came
01:51
from the running game, two of which came from Jason Hill, who is now hurt. I
01:54
think he had an abdominal, so it's a bit all over the place for the Saints. I
01:58
still think they need to have a lobby and Rashid. Shahid has the two options
02:02
in the past conference, which they did have just want to see him find the end
02:05
zone.
