It's been more than two months since the Saints have lost a game (feel free to look it up) but they won't catch anyone by surprise as they head to Atlanta to face the Falcons for the second time in three weeks.

Taysom Hill will get his third consecutive start for the Saints in place of an injured Drew Brees. He looked confident and efficient in his debut start against Atlanta in Week 11, but faltered in a game-manager role against the Broncos a week later.

What kind of Taysom time will the Saints bring to Mercedes-Benz Stadium? Will more key injuries loom large in a rivalry showdown? Will the Saints sack Matt Ryan nine more times?

Scroll below for key broadcast info, storylines to know, expert picks and more before the NFC South matchup kicks off at noon.

SOME NUMBERS TO KNOW
17: The number of times the Saints have sacked Matt Ryan in their past two matchups
7: The number of consecutive games the Saints have won behind backup quarterbacks ... and conveniently the number worn by Taysom Hill
-2: The total receiving yards for Saints RB Alvin Kamara the last two games after rolling up 67 catches for 648 yards over his first 9
2: The Saints' magic number to clinch the division. A win against the Falcons would make this 1
5: The number of touchdown runs by Taysom Hill this season. With one more he'd pass Archie Manning for the most in a single-season by a Saints quarterback.

I wanna see this defense harass Matt Ryan again. Fun to watch when he gets happy feet in the pocket.

Re: Saints @ Falcons Game Day Thread

The Falcons won’t have a solution for Hill regardless of how much tape they have on him. Hill isn’t their problem, their bullsh1t team is.

Hill isn’t Drew Brees, Tom Brady, or Payton Manning, he doesn’t beat teams with his arm or command of offensive strategy. Hill is a pawn and regardless of what you think about Sean Payton, he’s driving this bus and today and our score is going to be about our receivers, running backs, and offensive line.

The Falcons are about to get pounded like the bottom of a fat girls Ranch bottle.

This could be a tough one. Not having Davenport or Janoris Jenkins is going to hurt. Calvin Ridley could have a real big day.
