Falcons vs. Saints set for huge installment in historic rivalry

When the Atlanta Falcons and New Orleans Saints take the field on Thursday night, another chapter in the book of hatred will be written.

Two teams who utterly despise one another will take their parts in one of sports most underrated rivalries, but this rivalry is far more than just football. The pride of each city rests in the balance of this fight on the grid iron.

The Falcons are one of the hottest teams in the NFL behind the three-headed offensive attack of Matt Ryan Julio Jones and Devonta Freeman.
