The New Orleans Saints and the Atlanta Falcons are at opposite ends of the NFC South.
They also are heading in opposite directions as the Saints prepare to host the 100th regular-season meeting between the longtime division rivals on Sunday afternoon.
New Orleans is 7-1 after winning its past six games, and Atlanta — which leads the series 52-48 (including 1-0 in the postseason) — is 1-7 after losing its past six games.
Both teams had a bye last week. The Saints took the week off. The Falcons shuffled responsibilities among three assistant coaches and signed a new kicker and a new punter.
But the Saints know better than to take a division rival lightly, especially during what defensive end Cameron Jordan playfully called “National Hate Week.”
