Falcons fall to Saints, 26-23
The Atlanta Falcons put up a good fight but it wasn’t enough in a 26-23 loss to the New Orleans Saints.
The Falcons had to try and spring the upset without quarterback Matt Ryan or running back Michael Turner.
They almost did just that, coming very close to ending the Saints’ bid for an undefeated regular season.
Quarterback Chris Redman played much better this week, but he could not match the production from Drew Brees.
The Falcons are quickly slipping out of the playoff picture and will need a late push to have any chance at postseason play.
