The Saints first playoff appearance came in the 1987 season when they went 13-3 and were a wild card team. Their first playoff game was January 3, 1988 against the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings won that game 44-10.

The Saints were 12-3 that strike-shortened season. The 49ers won the division at 13-2. That's why the Saints were playing in the Metrodome as a wild-card. 2009 was the first time the Saints won 13 games in a season.
