The Atlanta Falcons (1-2) have three prime-time games in the first five weeks of the 2024 season, but their playoff fate comes down to how they fare against the other three teams in the NFC South.
On Sunday, the Falcons play their first division game of the year when the New Orleans Saints (2-1) come to town. Both teams are coming off losses in Week 3. The Saints lost to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 3 while Atlanta lost to the Kansas City Chiefs.
In Week 4, the two division rivals will face off at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. Sunday’s game starts at 1 p.m. ET and will air on FOX, with Kenny Albert and Jonathan Vilma on the call.
Check out the television broadcast map for Sunday’s game, as shared by 506sports.com below (Falcons-Saints in green-shaded areas):
The Falcons are slight favorites entering Week 4 but they could be without two starting offensive linemen. Center Drew Dalman was placed on the injured reserve list and will be replaced by Ryan Neuzil on Sunday.
Right tackle Kaleb McGary is unlikely to play after missing the first two days of practice. Backup offensive tackle Storm Norton would get the start for McGary if he can’t play. Check out Atlanta’s latest depth chart, injury report and 53-man roster entering Week 4.
