One of the best rivalries in the NFL will take center stage on Thanksgiving night when the New Orleans Saints head to Atlanta to take on the Falcons. With the Falcons finding some form after their bye week, the Saints will need to play at a high level to maintain their spot near the top of the NFC standings.

New Orleans won an exciting 34-31 game over the Carolina Panthers in its last game to improve to 9-2 on the season. Drew Brees threw for 311 yards and three touchdowns, with the Saints winning on a last-second field goal by Wil Lutz. Michael Thomas caught 10 passes for 101 yards and a touchdown. He will look to put up big numbers on Thanksgiving against a Falcons defense that has struggled against the pass this season.
Atlanta lost its last time out, dropping a 35-22 game to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Falcons mustered just 57 rushing yards for the contest, forcing the passing game to carry too much of the offensive load. The Falcons allowed 184 yards and two touchdowns to Bucs receiver Chris Godwin and are up against an elite passing attack on Thursday. The loss was Atlanta’s first since its bye week, as Dan Quinn’s squad had won games against the Saints and Panthers prior to falling to the Buccaneers.
Prediction: Analyst Ryan Brandenburger says the Saints will easily pull this one out with a 35-10 Saints blowout, look for Brees to have 3 TD’s in this route.
