Saints Celebrate Historic Plays From Dempsey, Brees

News summary

As the New Orleans Saints approach their 2025 regular season opener, the team and fans reflect on historic moments and players who have shaped the franchise. Drew Brees' record-breaking 62-yard touchdown pass to Tre'Quan Smith in 2018 remains a highlight, marking Brees' all-time passing yards record that energized the franchise during one of its greatest regular seasons. Legendary plays such as Tom Dempsey's 63-yard field goal in 1970, which stood as an NFL record for 43 years despite challenges and rule changes, also continue to be celebrated. Honoring the legacy of Saints players who wore numbers associated with the countdown days, Jerry Fontenot and Brad Edelman are highlighted for their durability and impact as key offensive linemen during their tenures with the Saints. The team, under new head coach Kellen Moore, aims to improve upon last season's disappointing record as they prepare to face the Arizona Cardinals in their home opener. These retrospectives underscore the Saints' rich history and the anticipation building for the new season.
