The New Orleans Saints could clinch a playoff berth on Sunday.
The Saints travel to Atlanta to face to the division rival Atlanta Falcons for the second time in two weeks, and if the Saints are able to take care of business, and if the Chicago Bears fall to the Detroit Lions, the Saints will be guaranteed a playoff spot in the postseason.
But focusing just on this week, the Saints defense could have their hands full on Sunday, facing a Falcons team that just hung a 40-burger on the Las Vegas Raiders. Remember: in Week 2, the Saints - led by Drew Brees - lost 24-34 to the Raiders, and last week, the Raiders just got shellacked 43-6 by the Falcons.
