^Still not as bad as SuperBowl 51.The 1992 Saints are the only team to lose twice when leading 20-7 in the third quarter (I didn't verify).

And the players involved won a ESPY for it.In 2003 the saints had the biggest roller coaster sequence in the history of football that i can remember...river city relay.
I wasn't implying that the ship had sailed on the Haslett era in general, I was saying that that particular season we'd lost whatever energy we'd had during the 6-1 start and I sincerely thought we were just gonna get stomped in our first playoff game even if we'd made it. These were the records of the teams we played going into our games with them during that season-ending freefall:
3-10 Vikings
1-13 Bengals
6-9 Panthers
Cumulatively, 10-32 for a .238 winning decimal or what extrapolates to 3.8 wins over a 16 game schedule. I just couldn't muster that degree of blind faith and if I could've then I'm sure there are more than a few time share salesmen who'd love to take me out to lunch one day.
That's not true.Former Super Bowl 3 champion, Kansas City Chiefs coach Hank Stram became coach of the Saints. He coached the Saints to an even 8 & 8 season while Mecham was still the owner.
That game still ****** me off.
Owid Allen (O.A.) “Bum” Phillips wouldn’t let Morten Anderson kick a 50 yd field goal. Instead, he opted to punt it to the Rams (...who up to that point hadn’t moved the ball all day).Easily the most brutal loss to that point for me as a Saint fan from about 74.. never forget it- Monday night game, thought we were finally going to the playoffs. just awful- hated those Ram teams
Or Peter Yanker. He was actually Peter Yanker III, so poor awareness was congenital
"Hold my beer"--Houston Oilers vs Buffalo BillsThe Saints were on the wrong end of the largest ever comeback in regular season history. Blew a 28 point lead to the Niners in 1980.
Yeah, that was playoffs not regular season, but larger and more devastating for sure."Hold my beer"--Houston Oilers vs Buffalo Bills
Which is hardly a unique or obscure thing among Saints fans.Ok, this thread is turning into "How did the Saints break your heart?"
