I don’t totally agree … but both of those ARE on my HATE listI wouldn’t even call the Falcons the national rival to the Saints.
In my opinion, the Saints have two national rivals; the Rams and Vikings.
And I make this statement for a few reasons.
1. The Rams and Vikings have historically been more successful than the Falcons. So, most of the country are familiar with those franchises.
2. The Saints have more nationally known games with those franchises. Good and bad.
The 09 and 18 NFCCGs for example. Kamara’s Christmas Game.
3. Just by viewing how the networks schedule the Saints games with the Rams and Vikings. That’s gonna be the rivalry games for the Saints when they’re on national TV.
