Payton is their daddy.


since being hired the Falcons and Saints have played 27 times....the Saints do lead that series 16 - 11.

59% winning percentage.

Daddy may be a stretch but he has been a savior for the Saints.

The series has seen exactly 100 games including playoffs and the Falcons lead the series 52 - 48.

4 games difference out of 100 played is a rivalry if i have ever seen one.

also i am aware that after thanksgiving night that 4 game lead will in all likelihood be reduced to 2 games.

I remember reading an article somewhere stating that this was widely considered one of the best rivalries in professional football. It just didn't get the national attention until both teams crawled out of abject failure.

Current situation not withstanding of course.
