NEW ORLEANS -- Looks like it’s going to go down to the wire in the Superdome. Right now it’s Saints 28, Falcons 24.
I thought for a second it was going to be tied when Roddy White appeared to make what initially was called a touchdown catch. The call was reviewed and, rightly, overturned and the Falcons had to settle for a field goal.
Speaking of field goals, veteran kickers Jason Elam and John Carney aren’t having particularly good nights. I wouldn’t be surprised if this one somehow comes down to a kicker deciding it.
