Saints vs. Falcons: A History

The Saints and the Falcons first met in 1967, during the Falcons’ second season and the Saints’ inaugural season in the NFL. As two of the NFL’s southernmost teams at the time, geographic proximity naturally bred rivalry, with Atlanta and New Orleans separated by only about 430 miles. Both teams were known for struggling in their early years. From the late 1960s through the 1970s, neither team had much success, often finishing near the bottom of their respective divisions. However, this helped to create an intense rivalry between the two fanbases, as the teams would fight to avoid being the worst in the league.

Escalation in the 1980s

The rivalry gained a higher profile in the 1980s as both teams began to see sporadic success. The Falcons drafted quarterback Steve Bartkowski, while the Saints eventually brought in quarterback Archie Manning, both of whom became faces of their respective franchises.
The games between the Saints and Falcons were usually hard-fought and unpredictable, with memorable moments such as the Falcons’ 62-7 rout of the Saints in 1973 and the Saints winning their first-ever game against the Falcons in 1969.
