NEW ORLEANS – Falcons wide receiver Roddy White didn’t gave the Saints any credit  after their 31-27 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

When asked what did it say about the Falcons that they couldn’t beat a 3-5 Saints team, White said, “It doesn’t say much about us about us. I think we had opportunities today. It’s not like they came out here and just. … I feel like we kind of gave it away. We just gave it to them. It wasn’t nothing they did. It was want we did in not cashing in on opportunities. We play them against in three weeks and we’ll be ready. It will be at the Dome and hopefully we’ll beat them that time.”

White was the intended receiver on the Falcons’ fourth down pass attempt that Saints cornerback Jabari Greer deflected with 1:46 left to play.

“He made a heck of play,” White said. “He came underneath. He read it right. He dove in there and knocked it down. Good play by him.”
