Saints: 3 players that exceeded expectations in dominate win over Falcons
Marshon Lattimore
Lastly, Marshon Lattimore, the star cornerback for the Saints, played a tremendous game. Lattimore and Julio Jones found themselves on the top matchups to see going into Week 13, and they did not disappoint.
While Lattimore didn’t necessarily shadow Julio Jones, he did give him a headache anytime the two were matchup up together. Even on the receptions, he did give up to Ridley and Jones, he was in perfect coverage, they were just ridiculous catches.
It helps the secondary to have a player like Lattimore who can force a quarterback to look another way when he is on the field. It was especially better when he had to step up because Janoris Jenkins wasn’t on the field this week.
