3 concerns for New Orleans Saints against Falcons in Week 11
The Falcons’ offense will be at full strength.
The Falcons’ offense is deadly. With the combination of receivers like Calvin Ridley and Julio Jones, they have short and deep threats. Matt Ryan is one of the most underrated quarterbacks in the NFL consistently throwing for more than 400 yards per game.
In the offseason, they added running back Todd Gurley from the Los Angeles Rams. Even though he is most likely past his prime, Gurley still has a lot to offer and on a good day, Gurley can destroy you down the field.
Through injuries, the “Dirty Birds” haven’t had all those pieces in every game this season. Now, they have them all back together. That could mean the Saints’ defense has to be on top of their game as to not let the Falcons’ weapons thrive.
