Don't say the New Orleans Saints aren't playing for much, as they can spoil the Atlanta Falcons bid for the No. 2 spot in the NFC Playoffs. The Saints are also trying to avoid being swept by the Falcons since that God-awful 2014 season. The Saints can't negate a Falcons first-round bye by winning and hoping that the Seahawks don't magically have a meltdown against the 49ers. In essence, it's the lesser of two evils?
Fun Fact: The Saints are 7-3 at the Georgia Dome under Sean Payton, and it's the final time they'll play each other there.
Series Head-to-Head: Falcons lead the all-time series 50-45, with one victory being a playoff matchup.
