— New Orleans Saints (@Saints) November 3, 2023
The New Orleans Saints announced their uniform combo for Week 9’s home game with the Chicago Bears: black home jerseys and matching black pants. It’s been a popular look this season and in the era of Saints football dating back to 2006, when Sean Payton and Drew Brees arrived to turn the franchise’s fortunes around.
New Orleans has used this uniform combination 88 times since 2006, more than any other look. But the Saints have a 51-37 record while wearing them, so look for improvement on Sunday against the Bears.
If you’re superstitious, here’s how this combination stacks up to others the Saints have worn since 2006 (not including the controversial gold jerseys used in a loss back in 2003):
1
"Black and Gold" throwbacks
Record: .750 (3-1)
2
White jerseys, white pants
Record: .706 (12-5)
3
White jerseys, black pants
Record: .606(43-28)
4
Black jerseys, gold pants
Record: .600 (24-16)
5
White jerseys, gold pants
Record: .597 (37-25)
6
Black jerseys, black pants
Record: .580 (51-37)
7
"Color Rush" alternates
Record: .563 (9-7)
8
Black jerseys, white pants
Record: .000 (0-1)
