The Saints in their remodeling of the Superdome, decided to the remind the world and the Falcons of their loss to the New England Patriots back in 2017, pictured above. Lets take a ride back in history to 2017, its Superbowl LI, where the Falcons ended up blowing a 28-3 lead against the Patriots. Fans were stunned as they watched the Patriots come back and defeat the Falcons. A bitter sweet loss as the Falcons came the closest that they had ever gotten to winning the Superbowl since 1998. This was a loss heard around the world, and it looks like the Saints aren’t taking any mercy on the Falcons as they mock their Superbowl loss. Will this prove to be a good move? The show down is taking place this Sunday, and it is indeed to be one for the books.
