Do your Sunday plans involve watching two terrible football teams force one or the other to win? If so, the Falcons head to New Orleans for Hate Week Part I, a game where the Saints enter with a hair's advantage of 1.5 points, per FanDuel Sportsbook. Both of these NFC South rivals' seasons have spiraled out of control, and at 3-7 and 2-8, respectively, it's essentially a race to the bottom when they meet on Sunday afternoon in the Superdome.

New Orleans turns the ball over too often but also forces plenty, hold the line well against the pass, and offer up a solid defense overall. Their putrid rushing attack and very average passing attack are the two best reasons to think the Falcons will win this one, particularly the first, but obviously little is guaranteed with the way the Falcons have played of late.

In the late fifteenth-century collection of mystical poetry from the Franciscan convent at Villingen, the twenty-two named nuns include several with the name Agnes, reflecting the popularity of saints' names at baptism.
