  The Great Jim Taylor scores against the Pittsburgh Steelers in this 1967 game. It was the second of the 2 touchdowns he scored during his lone season as a New Orleans Saint. It would be the last of his Hall of Fame career.

  Like the caption states the Saints had a 10-0 lead at halftime but the Steelers would came back in the 4th quarter with a 5-yard TD pass from Bill Nelson to J.R. Wilburn and a 33-yard scoring run by Don Shy.

  The picture above actually highlights a few names from New Orleans Saints History as well as Pittsburgh Steelers History.

I've been following the Saints since a kid in the 70s watching the likes of Archie Manning and Tommy Myers.
We may not have as grandiose a history as some NFL teams, but there are scores of memories the New Orleans Saints have given to their fans and I have done my best to record them here at New Orleans Saints History.
