The Saints (8-8) have found a way to keep their playoff hopes alive despite being on their third starting quarterback this season. They lost their QB1, Jameis Winston for the season in week eight after he suffered a knee injury against the Buccaneers. Then after a 0-4 stretch with Trevor Siemian as their starter, they made the switch to Taysom Hill. Hill’s versatility has helped lead New Orleans to a record of 3-0 record over his last three starts and now with a win and a 49ers’ loss, the Saints will be in the playoffs. Another reason for the Saint’s turnaround has been their dominant defense. Led by veteran defensive end Cameron Jordan, New Orleans has allowed an average of just 9.7 points-per-game over a four-game stretch. As for Jordan, he’s recorded 7.5 sacks over his last three games. The Falcons (7-9) have already been eliminated from postseason contention, making it four years in-a-row of missing the playoffs. Matt Ryan and company just couldn’t put it together in Atlanta this season as Ryan has thrown for just 19 touchdowns through 16 games, his lowest total since his rookie year. Falcons’ fans have had a hard time pointing fingers as to why this season has been so disappointing when it comes to the lack of production on the field. Both their offensive and defensive units are ranked in the bottom-10 in the NFL. They’ve scored just 18.3 points-per-game on the season, sixth lowest total in the league, while on defense they’ve allowed 26.8 ppg, fourth highest in the league. The Saints are 4.5-point favorites against the Falcons. The over/under 40. Saints vs Falcons Inactives:  Saints:  Kenny Stills (WR), Mark Ingram (RB), Ian Book (QB),  Bradley Roby (CB), P.J.
