The Falcons and Raiders both pretty much moved the ball at will against the Saints; if they needed to run the ball, they ran the ball; if they wanted to pass the ball, they threw for easy wide-open first downs. Just like in 2012, the Saints' opponents this year have typically taken their sweet time moving down the field, operating in a basic, rudimentary, non-flashy offense, moving the chains, racking up first downs, doing pretty much whatever they wanted to, and hey, if you don't happen to get it on 3rd down, just line up go for it on 4th, you'll probably pick it up or get lucky with a penalty. At one point the Falcons scored points on six consecutive possessions the other night. Unless the Chargers play "Football Follies" level of bad on every series, at some point the Saints' offense against the Chargers will have to punt, and that will spell doom for the Saints when the Chargers get the ball back and score. Not encouraged by any of this.
Looks like your Sunday is free then!
