ATLANTA -- Officials have approved the design and a preliminary $1.2 billion budget for a new Atlanta Falcons stadium. The Georgia World Congress Center Authority board of governors on Tuesday unanimously approved the complete schematic design and the budget, which is up $200 million from the previous estimate. The design was recently completed by an architecture firm. The design team had presented a conceptual design earlier this year, but officials say the new version includes more details. Board chairman Tim Lowe told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that the extra $200 million included in the budget will be covered by the Falcons. Bonds backed by the citys hotel-motel tax are set to cover $200 million of the stadiums cost, while the rest is to be covered by the team, the NFL and personal seat license sales.

Thats what its about, and we didnt do enough of that tonight.Actually, the Panthers havent done that nearly enough for three straight games.Since a 37-37 tie at Cincinnati in Week 6, the Panthers fell behind 28-3 at the half of a 38-17 loss at Green Bay, settled for two short field goals early in last weeks 13-9 home loss to Seattle, then fell behind 14-0 by halftime against the Saints.Everybodys looking for a magic play, said Cam Newton, who misfired on 18 of 28 passes and threw for 151 yards. Everybodys looking for somebody to say something, for somebody to do something and take responsibility for themselves. I know I am. I need to be better.For the Saints, the performance proved they know how to win big games on the road.Drew Brees overcame a shaky start and threw for one touchdown and ran for another as the Saints (4-4) piled up 375 yards to snap a seven-game losing streak on the road that dated back to last November.Brees finished 24 of 34 for 297 yards and Mark Ingram turned in another solid performance with 100 yards rushing and two touchdowns.Brees threw an interception and fumbled in the first quarter before settling down late in the second.The Saints defence sacked Newton four times and forced two turnovers.Newton spent much of the night under heavy duress playing behind an offensive line without three of its regular starters.Neww Orleans pushed inside the Carolina 15-yard line on the game-opening drive before Brees pass for Kenny Stills was deflected to Panthers defensive lineman Dwan Edwards for the interception.dddddddddddd.Then, after the Saints forced a punt, Brees quickly pushed the Saints to midfield only to have Carolinas Charles Johnson push fullback Erik Lorig into him and knock the ball loose as he looked downfield for a fumble.However, Newton and the Panthers couldnt take advantage and were forced to punt after both turnovers.Its hard when you dont take advantage of those opportunities, Panthers coach Ron Rivera said.The Saints didnt have the same problem.With the Panthers pinned back in their own end, Junior Galette sacked Newton from behind and stripped the ball, allowing linebacker Curtis Lofton to recover at the Carolina 3. Ingram took advantage two plays later with a 3-yard run to give the Saints a 7-0 lead.Then, after forcing a three-and-out, Brees directed an 85-yard drive that ended when he slipped a 1-yard pass just past Melvin White to Jimmy Graham on the right side with 3 seconds left in the half and the Saints were off and running while the Panthers (3-5-1) headed to the locker room serenaded by a chorus of boos.One of the few highlights for the Panthers came from Newton.He turned in one of the most athletic plays of the season when he scrambled out of the pocket, raced around the left end and took off from the 5-yard line and soared toward the goal line with the ball outstretched in his right hand for a touchdown, cutting the Saints lead to 14-7.But Brees stopped any Carolina momentum when he led a 14-play drive that took more than six minutes and ended with his fourth-down TD keeper.Ingram, who carried 30 times, added his second scoring run to seal the game in the fourth quarter.Graham had seven catches for 83 yards and a touchdown against the Panthers.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' '
