The season started off with such promise as the Saints raced to an early lead in Atlanta while Jairus Byrd quickly created his first takeaway. But Matt Ryan would end up throwing for a career high in yards, the Falcons would march down in the final seconds to send the game to overtime with a 50+ yard field goal, and then Marques Colston would cough up the game with this fumble which preceded another 50+ yard kick by Matt Bryant to end the game in walk off fashion. No doubt in my mind the Saints go down and score if Colston hangs on to this. Instead 0-1 on their way to 7-9.
