The 2024 season is the New Orleans Saints' 58th season in the National Football League (NFL), the 49th to host games at the Caesars Superdome and the third and final under head coach Dennis Allen. The Saints failed to improve on their 9–8 record from the previous season and missed the playoffs for the fourth straight year when the Atlanta Falcons blew out the New York Giants.[1] Despite starting the season 2–0 for the second consecutive season with over 40 points scored in both games, the Saints went on a seven-game losing streak for the first time since 1999. On November 4, following a Week 9 loss to the Carolina Panthers, the Saints fired Allen and promoted assistant head coach and special teams coordinator Darren Rizzi to be the interim head coach.[2] In Week 15, the Saints officially clinched a losing season with a loss to the Washington Commanders.
