The New Orleans Saints have a chance to do something on Sunday afternoon that they haven't had in a long time -- a winning record.
The Saints have not been above .500 since Dec. 29, 2013, when they beat the Buccaneers 42-17 to close out their season with an 11-5 record.
Additionally, they haven't had much success since 2007 when trying to establish a winning record when they are .500 or worse by Week 9. In the four times that happened (2007, 2008 2012, 2014) the Saints lost the first game after reaching the .500 mark each time.
