Peter King "Peace Out" on the Saints

We've dropped three of our last four, but we've at least shown up, and actually outgained the other team in two of the three losses, failing because of turnovers, with our offense moving the ball easily on almost everyone, and our defense did pretty well against an explosive Panthers team for most of the game until they finally ran out of gas.

On the other hand, the Falcons were whipped, just dog-whipped, by the 2-8 Lions, beaten straight up by the 2-8 Browns and thumped pretty good by the Ravens. In addition, they're pretty beat up, and their vaunted running attack can no longer find the end zone. I'm certainly hoping I hear the sound of their bus starting up.....

My sense is we're the better bet this weekend. We've spent the last three weeks winning one road game decisively and battling back and forth with two dangerous teams before falling short. The Falcons have just folded in the second half of two of the last three games. I'd almost like to see them play decently for a quarter and THEN have us start pile driving them just to watch them actually throw a towel in.
