    The New Orleans Saints are a professional American football team based in New Orleans, Louisiana. The New Orleans Saints perform in the South Division of the National Football Conference (NFC) in the National Football League (NFL).

    The New Orleans Saints were started in 1967 as an NFL expansion team and played all of their home games at Tulane Stadium up to the 1974 season. They went more than an entire decade before they managed to complete a season with a .500 record, 2 full decades before having a winning season, and over 40 years before reaching the Super Bowl. The Saints’ first successful years were from 1987–1992, when the team made the playoffs four times and had winning records in the non-playoff seasons. In the 2000 season, the Saints conquered the then-defending Super Bowl champion St. Louis Rams for the team’s first playoff win.

    The 2009 season was the team’s best season. The 11/30/09 Monday Night Football game vs. the New England Patriots, the game in which the team went to an 11–0 record for the first time in franchise history, was the 2nd highest rated cable program to date. After becoming 13–0 with their win against the Atlanta Falcons, it marked the Saints’ best start to a season in its franchise’s history. The result clinched an NFC playoff berth, a bye in the first round of the playoffs. By winning their first 13 games, the Saints furthermore established the record for the longest undefeated season opening (13-0) by an NFC team since the AFL–NFL merger, eclipsing the previous record (12-0) held by the 1985 Chicago Bears. The Saints advanced to the 2009 NFC Championship game where they defeated the Minnesota Vikings 31-28 in overtime, sending the team to their first Super Bowl appearance in the franchise’s history.
