The Worst 25 Teams In The Past 50 Years

When reading an article earlier on YardBarker I saw a slideshow covering the worst 25 teams in the past 50 years. The Bucs appear on the list twice as the worst and the 12th worst. The Panthers make the list as the 13th worst. The Falcons appear on the list as the 2(8)3rd worst. The Browns are listed as the 4th, 5th, and 6th worst. Yikes! The Saints didn't escape the list as they appear as the team having had the 11th worst season in the past 50 years. Here's what they had to say about the Saints 1980 season.

Archie Mannings career became perhaps the NFLs closest equivalent to "Space Jam" universe Michael Jordan's would be reality had the Toon Squad not prevailed in that fateful matchup. A quality talent tethered to terrible teams, the Manning patriarch finished in the top 10 in TD passes and passer rating in 1980. New Orleans' defense allowed 487 points -- the second most in the 80s -- and these Saints, a year away from George Rogers' arrival, had no 400-yard rusher. The Saints started 0-14 and were a game-winning Tony Galbreath TD away from 0-16. In week 14 they blew a 28-point lead -- still a regular season record -- to the Joe Montana-led 49ers.
