With a 1-15 record in 1980, the New Orleans Saints experienced their poorest season ever.
The 1980 season was the 14th for the New Orleans Saints in the National Football League. The Saints were unable to improve on their 8–8 record from the previous season, winning only one game.
The Saints missed the playoffs for the fourteenth consecutive season and had the dubious distinction of not only winning only one game but winning it by a single point against the similarly struggling Jets, who, like the Saints, had been widely predicted to make their first playoff appearance since 1969 before the season began.
The defense, which ranked worst in yards and points (487) allowed, was the main cause of the collapse.
