Here's how the Saints-Falcons Thursday Night Football game unfolded last night through the eyes of the Who Dat Nation Twittersphere.
Tons I mean tons of #Saints fans here in ATL
— Kristian Garic (@KristianGaric1) November 22, 2013
Very little buzz here at the Georgia Dome for pre game warmups. #Saints fans out in force, though.
— Jeff Duncan (@JeffDuncan_) November 22, 2013
I can picture Jeff Duncan in the media press box telling Sean Payton arrogance stories.
— Sean Hatin (@JuanScroates) November 22, 2013
Cameron Jordan's helmet was on the ground a second ago. He rolled it over w/ his foot, flipped it up with his toes and caught it in the air.
— WWL-TV Sports (@wwltvsports) November 22, 2013
Saints win toss, take the ball.
— Larry Holder (@LarryHolder) November 22, 2013
Well Ben Grubbs whiffed on that block.
— Larry Holder (@LarryHolder) November 22, 2013
Sooo,. not missing Evans...
— skooks (@skooks) November 22, 2013
That's how you start a game!
— The Falcoholic (@TheFalcoholic) November 22, 2013
Vegas has pulled the following odds off the board: "Steven Jackson falls apart in the second half."
— Held Over (@hakimdropsball) November 22, 2013
Darius Johnson for the score! Falcons go up 7-0 early, and I am dropping my drink in slow motion. #ATLvsNO
— The Falcoholic (@TheFalcoholic) November 22, 2013
Probably not a touchdown, sorry! I get excited.
— The Falcoholic (@TheFalcoholic) November 22, 2013
Well, there's the touchdown
— WWL Radio (@WWLAMFM) November 22, 2013
Steven Jackson 1-yd TD run for ATL with 8:48 left in 1st. 7-0 ATL
— John DeShazier (@JohnDeShazier) November 22, 2013
Steven Jackson cheering like they're going to the playoffs. Poor guy
— Sean Hatin (@JuanScroates) November 22, 2013
Hear the roar of the crowd. No, keep listening. It’s there, I promise.
— Who Dat Report (@whodat9000) November 22, 2013
Pierre Thomas, pain in the ass.
— The Falcoholic (@TheFalcoholic) November 22, 2013
Pierre Thomas on screen passes > anyone else.
— Scott Walker (@ScottWalker6) November 22, 2013
Little-known facts for #NOLA transplants: Frenchmen Street is named after Pierre Thomas.
— Black & Gold Review (@BnGreview) November 22, 2013
ALL THE THIRD DOWNS ARE BELONG TO US
— Angry Who Dat (@angrywhodat) November 22, 2013
elementary my dear Watson with the TD grab makes it 7-7 with 1:41 left in the 1st
— Steve Geller (@SteveGellerWWL) November 22, 2013
Mark Ingram had a pancake and blitz pickup on same play on that pass to Colston. Blocked two blitzers. Wow.
— Saints Nation Blog (@SaintsNationBlg) November 22, 2013
#Saints quarterback Drew Brees passed Warren Moon for fifth place in NFL history in passing yards. Now at 49,350.
— Mike Triplett (@MikeTriplett) November 22, 2013
man o man are the Falcons working over Corey White tonight
— Steve Geller (@SteveGellerWWL) November 22, 2013
Hicks with back to back plays. Love the way this future pro bowler plays
— juan kincaid (@juankinc4) November 22, 2013
49ers fans everywhere just had a seizure
— Ralph Malbrough (@SaintsForecast) November 22, 2013
I hope Ahmad Brooks isn't watching this game.
— SI_DougFarrar (@SI_DougFarrar) November 22, 2013
Akiem Asaw Aconquered.
— Who Dat Report (@whodat9000) November 22, 2013
.@raylewis I expect you to be paying for any fine Akiem Hicks might incur.
— Canal St. Chronicles (@SaintsCSC) November 22, 2013
Jimmy Graham: breaking records, Hearts and Goal Posts.
— Ralph Malbrough (@SaintsForecast) November 22, 2013
JIMMMAY getting an early start on tearing down the Georgia Dome
— Pod Katt (@valleyshook) November 22, 2013
Please straighten the thing out before Hartley kicks the field goal. SMH
— ALY Media Relations (@AngelaLYoung) November 22, 2013
Morten Anderson and Mike Lansing have agreed to pay for Jimmy Graham's goalpost fine.
— Sean Hatin (@JuanScroates) November 22, 2013
The goal posts were likely assembled using inferior products purchased from one of Arthur Blank's Home Depot stores.
— Arkansas Fred (@ArkansasFred) November 22, 2013
The goal post had a better shot than William Moore did.
— SI_DougFarrar (@SI_DougFarrar) November 22, 2013
#Falcons OT Jeremy Trueblood draws 15-yd penalty for hitting #Saints Akiem Hicks in face. Officials didn't miss that one.
— Mike Triplett (@MikeTriplett) November 22, 2013
That's what getting revenge for your quarterback looks like. Unfortunately, it also resembles a 15 yard penalty.
— The Falcoholic (@TheFalcoholic) November 22, 2013
Cory White is getting picked on worse than Jonathan Martin
— Taylor Guidry (@tguid_54) November 22, 2013
I MUST call Bullshit on da slide!#scaredy cat!!
— Samuel L. Jackson (@SamuelLJackson) November 22, 2013
Matt Ryan didn't exactly "Rise Up" on that third-down scramble. Falcons fans booing him at the Georgia Dome.
— Jeff Duncan (@JeffDuncan_) November 22, 2013
At least James Varney has the balls to drunk tweet. Jeff Duncan probably asks his friends to take his phone from him after wine spritzer #2
— Jgreen (@jgreen1570) November 22, 2013
Pierre Thomas has now moved into 4th place on the all-time Saints rushing yards list.
— Katherine Terrell (@Kat_Terrell) November 22, 2013
Oh god the Steve Gleason episode... RIGHT IN THE FEELS.
— Held Over (@hakimdropsball) November 22, 2013
#Saints DE Glenn Foster carted off the field with leg injury.
— Mike Triplett (@MikeTriplett) November 22, 2013
Corey White down. Saints trainers shoot him on field
— CJ Mordock (@CJMordock) November 22, 2013
Whenever I see Babineaux's jersey I always think it'll say Babineaux-Blanco and then I get REALLY pissed
— Held Over (@hakimdropsball) November 22, 2013
You'll love it. All about barbecue sauce RT @JoeHorn87 I'm gonna see Hunger Games. Have anyone seen it?
— skooks (@skooks) November 22, 2013
Graham was more open than that retractable vagina roof Atlanta is building for the Falcons.
— BlackenedOut (@BlackenedOut) November 22, 2013
Graham 6th time this season with 100yds rec, ties NFL record held by T.Gonzalez. #Saints
— Kristian Garic (@KristianGaric1) November 22, 2013
Tony Gonzales looks like he'd rather be having a colonoscopy.
— Rob Ryan's Hair (@RobRyansHair1) November 22, 2013
Every time Matt Ryan shouts "Stillwater" the movie Almost Famous gets worse.
— Black & Gold Review (@BnGreview) November 22, 2013
You can't stop Cam Jordan, you can only hope to contain him... by holding him illegally.
— Canal St. Chronicles (@SaintsCSC) November 22, 2013
After taking the ball away 15 times in the first 7 games, the #Saints have just 1 takeway in the past 14 quarters.
— WWL-TV Sports (@wwltvsports) November 22, 2013
FUMBLE RICUPERATOOOO!!!!!!
— Saints Italia (@SaintsItalia) November 22, 2013
That # 55 guy!!!!
— Sean Hatin (@JuanScroates) November 22, 2013
We have a guy named key-unta Dawson!?!?!!!?!!
— Jgreen (@jgreen1570) November 22, 2013
Corey White recovered the fumble! And who the hell is Dawson? He related to Richard or Andre? #whodat
— Held Over (@hakimdropsball) November 22, 2013
Raise your hand if you've ever heard of Keyunta Dawson. Put your hand down, you liar.
— Cory Gunkel (@CoryGunkel) November 22, 2013
The Pierre Thomas screen is more lethal than ricin.
— BlackenedOut (@BlackenedOut) November 22, 2013
Someone canonize Pierre
— Thanks be to Todd (@TheToddNewberg) November 22, 2013
THAT WAS THE MOST BRILLIANT TIMEOUT IN THE HISTORY OF SUCH THINGS
— skooks (@skooks) November 22, 2013
Sean Payton is a sorcerer. He iced him.
— JR Ella (@BornInBlues) November 22, 2013
Payton should have to coach looking away from the field. Only way to make it fair.
— BlackenedOut (@BlackenedOut) November 22, 2013
Yes, the Atlanta Falcons just attempted a field goal down four with 2:19 and missed.
— SB Nation (@sbnation) November 22, 2013
And thus does everything suck.
— The Falcoholic (@TheFalcoholic) November 22, 2013
Who DAT Nation has taken over the Georgia Dome
— Sean Fazende (@SeanFazende) November 22, 2013
#Saints eliminate Falcons from postseason
— Kristian Garic (@KristianGaric1) November 22, 2013
Just gonna climb into this pod marked "2014." Don't worry, I'll be right back. I swear. Just...left a soda in here.
