Seattle could beat them tomorrow night.

Week to week league.

If playoffs start today, we're the 3 seed and we'd have to go to Green Bay, then San Fran...

Should we beat San Fran at home next month, then we still would have to go to San Fran, then Green Bay...

Loss today sucks cause now our destiny is not in our hands now; we gotta get help...

Well that's on the Saints.

The'll have to take care of business wherever they play once the playoffs roll around.

I've rewatched a ton of plays and thought about it a lot, and I'm not sure how people can put this mostly as Brees fault. One thing, and probably the most important thing is that today we couldn't get off the field on third down. This became much worse after Lattimore got hurt as they made so many easy third down conversions just playing pitch and catch with Julio Jones. If we had him the entire game, the game could have been a lot different.. though I think we'd still lost. The Falcons came to play today, I can't stress enough how the Falcons are actually a good team when they play with energy(something that they've been lacking all year). I think we got stunned and forgot to do what we normally do. The biggest problem on offense from my perspective was the play calling. We didn't run the ball enough. I think we kind of got in this where we were like "oh ****, they came to play.. and never stop and caught our breath and approached the game logically". We kept trying to force something that wasn't there.The offensive line also played like ****. I'm not saying Brees played great, but if we did the same exact thing with Bridgewater, we'd have had the same exact result.

The pressure on Brees never stopped why didn’t we screen the hell out of Atlanta to make them back off the edge pursuit Patton got out schematized today
