I remember the two "Big Ben" Atlanta plays, and I think the scores were 20-17 each time. this is loooong overdue.
That's right!
We lost those two games that year by the same 20-17 score.
But what was even WORSE...
The following year, the Saints were in overtime with the Falcons in the Dome 34-34, when Russell Erxleben misshandled a punt near his goal line, tried to throw a pass, and it was intecepted by the Falcons for the winning points.
Thus they beat us the following year in the Dome by exactly double the score from the previous losses. (Or the sum total of both games) 40-34
However I do remember us getting payback in Atlanta later that year. Whew!
