It’s a familiar uniform combination for the New Orleans Saints this Sunday: the team announced they will be using their white away jerseys with black pants for Week 6’s road game against the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium, which is the same combo they wore in last week’s win over the New England Patriots.
Obviously they’re hoping the results from that matchup — a stifling defensive effort and long-awaited offensive scoring output in their 34-0 shutout win — can continue in the same threads. And it’s a good look. The Saints have won 43 of the 70 games they’ve played while wearing these uniforms dating back to 2006, a winning percentage of .614.
Here’s how this combination stacks up to others the team has worn since 2006 (not including the controversial gold jerseys used in a loss back in 2003):
"Black and Gold" throwbacks
Record: .750 (3-1)
White jerseys, white pants
