THE BLITZ projects the Saints to run the 9th-most total plays among all teams this week with 64.1 plays, given their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.This game will be played in a dome—which means zero wind, increased pass volume, increased TD potential, and increased passing effectiveness.Mark Ingram has been among the most sure-handed receivers in football among RBs, catching a stellar 86.8% of balls thrown his way since the start of last season, checking in at the 86th percentile.The Atlanta Falcons linebackers project as the 5th-worst collection of LBs in football since the start of last season in pass coverage.The New Orleans Saints offensive line has allowed their quarterback 2.74 seconds before the pass (3rd-best in the NFL since the start of last season), which has a positive effect on all passing attack stats across the board.
