Madden 17 Simulation: New Orleans Saints vs. Atlanta Falcons



Story by Brad Friedman

The New Orleans Saints found themselves swimming upstream for most of this week’s Madden 17 simulation.

After the Atlanta Falcons sprinted out to a 14-0 in the first, the Saints never fully recovered, eventually leading to a 31-17 loss.

Both of Atlanta’s first quarter scoring drives, with a Drew Brees interception sandwiched in-between them, concluded with Aldrick Robinson receiving touchdowns. They came from 43 and seven yards out, contributing to his six-catch, 106-yard game.

New Orleans cut Atlanta’s lead to four in the second.
