Publisher's Synopsis
It was a most unlikely success story, the Saints having finished the 1999 season with only three wins in sixteen games. But after three decades of frustration on the part of owners, coaches, players, and fans, the New Orleans Saints, overcoming inexperience and injuries in spectacular fashion, put together an exciting turnaround season in 2000.When the final whistle blew, the Saints had won eleven games, including their first playoff victory ever; the head coach was named NFL Coach of the Year; and the general manager was voted the league's Executive of the Year. One thing had become clear: the Saints had come marching in. This volume records, in text and photographs, the special elements that sustained that march.
