Didn't see this coming as Saints QB Drew Brees who currently holds the Record for Consecutive Games with a TD Pass (54) threw everything but a TD Pass.The Atlanta Falcons picked Drew Brees off 5 Times in a 23-13 Victory as the Falcons try to put themselves in the NFC Drivers Seat for the "Fight for Vince" in NOLA February 2013. Brees threw for 341 Yards but they Saints could never get on track Offensively and get going in the Red Zone. Falcons QB Matt Ryan played well and didn't Turn the Pigskin over as he threw for 165 Yards on 18 for 33 and One in the Saints End Zone.
The Saints won almost every Statistical Category but the Scoreboard as they fall to 5-7 on the Season with the Falcons moving to 11-1. Look at these Numbers....
3rd Down Conversions..Saints 7/14 Falcons 1/11
Passing Yards...Saints 335 Falcons 159
Red Zone...Saints 1/3 Falcons 2/3
1st Downs...Saints 24 Falcons 15
Talking about Stats that could be misleading if you watched the Game like the Bluedude and see the Falcons get 5 Interceptions those Numbers meant a Hill of Beans. The Falcons dominated in the Field of Play and they made the Plays when they had to to win the Game.
Note: Numbers from NFL.com and Brees 54 Game Streak started in 2009 now ends with Pats QB Tom Brady's Current Streak at 43 and counting.
