What’s on the line in Super Bowl 44 other than the Lombardi Trophy? Legacy. The New Orleans Saints are a franchise that couldn’t put together a winning season in their first 20 years of play. Not even the genealogy of Colts QB Peyton Manning could lead the Saints to victory, as Manning’s father Archie played for the Saints from 1971-81. In 2005, New Orleans nearly lost the team in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Their home stadium, the Superdome, was badly damaged, leading to a season with no Saints home games.
