Saints vs. Falcons Halftime Score: Saints Trail 17-14

At halftime, the Saints face a three point deficit in Atlanta.

Dale Zanine-USA TODAY Sports

The New Orleans Saints trail the Atlanta Falcons 17-14 at halftime in the Georgia Dome.  This game has been a quarterback duel so far, as Drew Brees and Matt Ryan have controlled the tempo all day.  The Saints definitely need to clean some things up in the second half to get things back on track.  A three point deficit is hardly a mountain to climb.  Let's crush these Falcons in the second half!

The Saints need to find a way to make some stops against the pass on defense, in order to give Brees and the offense a chance to take this game in the second half.  This is it folks, the last half of Saints football this season, enjoy it!  Who Dat!
