Английская Википедия:2020 New Orleans Saints season
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox NFL team season
The 2020 season was the New Orleans Saints' 54th season in the National Football League (NFL), their 45th playing home games at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, and their 14th under head coach Sean Payton. Although they failed to match their 13–3 records from 2018 and 2019, the Saints defended their NFC South title for the fourth consecutive year following a Week 16 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. After beating the San Francisco 49ers in Week 10, they won six straight games for the fourth consecutive season. With a Week 13 win over the Atlanta Falcons, the Saints clinched a franchise record fourth consecutive playoff appearance.[1] After Week 17 victory over the division rival, Carolina Panthers, the Saints became the first NFC South member to sweep the division in its history. During the Wildcard round against the Chicago Bears of the 2020–21 NFL playoffs, the Saints made history as one of the first two teams to air in a post-season football game on Nickelodeon, a primarily children-related network.[2] The Saints would defeat the Bears 21–9, advancing to the divisional round, where they were defeated by division rival and eventual Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 30–20, despite having swept them in the regular season.
This season marked the end of the Drew Brees era in New Orleans as he would announce his retirement on March 14, 2021, after twenty seasons of playing in the NFL, fifteen of those with the Saints.[3][4] Шаблон:TOC limit

Game summaries
Week 1: vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
With the win, the Saints began the year at 1–0 for the second year in a row.
Week 2: at Las Vegas Raiders
Шаблон:Americanfootballbox This was the first NFL game in Las Vegas or in the state of Nevada. With the loss, the Saints dropped to 1–1 on the season.
Week 3: vs. Green Bay Packers
Шаблон:Americanfootballbox With the tough loss, the Saints dropped to 1–2 for the first time since 2017. This also marks their first loss to the Packers since the 2012 season.
Week 4: at Detroit Lions
Шаблон:Americanfootballbox With this win against Detroit, the Saints improve to 2–2.
Week 5: vs. Los Angeles Chargers
Шаблон:Americanfootballbox Drew Brees faced his former team for the fourth time in his career. A potential game-winning 50-yard field goal by Chargers kicker Michael Badgley hit the crossbar instead, sending the game into overtime. With 5:08 left in the overtime period, Wil Lutz kicked a 36-yard field goal to take a 30–27 lead. But the night belonged to Marshon Lattimore, who stopped Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams on fourth down to seal the victory for New Orleans. They won despite Michael Thomas being out for a fourth straight game. However, this time, it was due to suspension after an altercation with Chauncey Gardner-Johnson during practice.[91]
Week 7: vs. Carolina Panthers
Шаблон:AmericanfootballboxThe Saints meet the Panthers and Teddy Bridgewater in this game. Bridgewater accidentally fell into the Saints sideline, but he reunited with his old friend Drew Brees who did the quarterback sneak earlier. The Saints were still able to beat the Panthers by 3.
Week 8: at Chicago Bears
Шаблон:AmericanfootballboxThe Saints meet Chicago again in the regular season at Soldier Field. During the 3rd Quarter, a fight broke out between C.J. Gardner-Johnson and Javon Wims, resulting in flags on the play. This also resulted in Wims getting ejected from the game. Again, the Saints go into overtime and won with a 35-yard field goal, improving them to 5-2.
Week 9: at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Шаблон:AmericanfootballboxThe Saints visit Tom Brady and the Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium. The Saints scored touchdowns and field goals. This includes those turnovers notched by David Onyemata and Marcus Williams. The Saints beat their rivals by 35 points, marking the second straight season to sweep them in the NFC South division.
Week 10: vs. San Francisco 49ers
Шаблон:Americanfootballbox Drew Brees suffered a collapsed lung and broken ribs. He would be out until Week 15 against the Chiefs.[92] Despite Brees being injured and sidelined, the Saints held on with the win over the 49ers. It also marked their first victory over San Francisco since the 2016 season.
Week 11: vs. Atlanta Falcons
Шаблон:Americanfootballbox Taysom Hill made his first start with Drew Brees sidelined with a rib injury.[93] The Saints would defeat the Falcons by 15 points.
Week 12: at Denver Broncos
Шаблон:Americanfootballbox This was an easy win due to the fact Drew Lock, Brett Rypien and Blake Bortles were all ineligible to play following Jeff Driskel testing positive for COVID-19 less than 24 hours before the game, which meant the Broncos named practice squad wide receiver Kendall Hinton, who played QB at Wake Forest, as starting quarterback for the game.[94] This was also the Saints' first victory over the Broncos since the 1994 season, which also marks their first road game win and Sean Payton's first win over Denver.
Week 13: at Atlanta Falcons
Шаблон:Americanfootballbox Taysom Hill threw his first NFL touchdown pass in the first quarter on a 15-yard pass to receiver Tre'Quan Smith.[95] In the end, Matt Ryan tried to throw a game-winning Hail Mary, but the Saints defense stepped up and made the ball drop to the ground. This marked their first sweep against Atlanta since the 2018 season.
Week 14: at Philadelphia Eagles
The Saints nine-game winning streak came to a halt. This also became the first time since the 2015 season to be defeated by the Eagles.
Week 15: vs. Kansas City Chiefs
Шаблон:AmericanfootballboxWith the Chiefs being the defending Super Bowl champions, the Saints were unable to beat them. Cameron Jordan became the first Saints player since Brodrick Bunkley (2012), Steve Gleason (2004), and Kyle Turley (2001) to be ejected from the game.
Week 16: vs. Minnesota Vikings
Christmas Day games Шаблон:Americanfootballbox
The Saints clinched their fourth consecutive division title as Alvin Kamara rushed for six touchdowns, tying a 91-year-old NFL record set by Hall of fame fullback Ernie Nevers of the Chicago Cardinals.[96]
Week 17: at Carolina Panthers
Шаблон:AmericanfootballboxThe Saints, not only beat the Panthers again, but they also became the first team in the NFC South to sweep their division rivals.
Clay Martin was originally going to officiate this game, but he was hospitalized for COVID-19. Adrian Hill was also unable to officiate this game because he had another game to be in. John Hussey became the referee for this game.

Game summaries
NFC Wild Card Playoffs: vs. (7) Chicago Bears
Шаблон:AmericanfootballboxFor the first time since the 2006 season, the Saints meet the Bears in the playoffs. It also marked the first victory against Chicago in the playoffs. It was primarily due to the Saints dominating on both sides of the ball for all four quarters. During a 4th down play, Alex Kemp got confused by misreading Cordarrelle Patterson's uniform number, making Patterson curse on the microphone. Anthony Miller threw a punch at Chauncey Gardner-Johnson, resulting in both players getting offsetting unsportsmanlike conduct penalties, thus an ejection for Miller. This was not only aired on CBS, it was also the first game to be aired on Nickelodeon.
NFC Divisional Playoffs: vs. (5) Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Шаблон:AmericanfootballboxEven though the Saints swept them in the regular season, they would meet the Buccaneers in the playoffs. This was Drew Brees' last game and the Saints would lose to Tom Brady. Jared Cook would fumble at the goal line after catching a pass. In this game, Alvin Kamara lined up at quarterback, flipped it to Emmanuel Sanders, and then to Jameis Winston, who threw a 56-yard touchdown which was paused due to an accidental flag thrown by the officials, which referee Shawn Hochuli acknowledged that James Hurst checked in as eligible and lined up at the end of the line of scrimmage, thus calling back the flag to reward the Saints a score.
