The Saints had barely finished celebrating the 20th anniversary of their emotional comeback after Katrina when Bijan Robinson threw the party.
The Falcons running back took the air out of the “Domecoming” game with a 59-yard touchdown run.
He followed the hole created by left tackle Jake Matthews on Chase Young and remained untouched down the left sideline.
Michael Penix completed passes of 12 and 9 yards before Robinson’s escape.
The Falcons lead 7-0 just 1 minute, 26 seconds into Monday Night Football.
