I’ve been a Falcons fan since their first year this is hopefully going to be a good game however your offense scares me to death! We have so many injuries I just hope we can hang with you guts. But I have always loved the Saints too! I guess because of both our sordid histories. So if we can’t win I am glad that y’all will represent our division and will pull for you just like a Saints fan. Hope it’s a great game! Thanks for letting me visit!
