Franchise History of the New Orleans Saints


Appropriately, New Orleans was awarded a franchise on All Saints Day in 1966.  Despite not recording a winning record until their 21st season, the Saints have enjoyed a devoted fan base.  In the mid-1980s, Hall of Famer Jim Finks turned New Orleans into winners.  From 1987 to 1992, the team advanced to the playoffs four times and won the NFC Western Division in 1991.
