The 1999 New Orleans Saints season was the Saints' thirty-third season in the National Football League (NFL). This was Mike Ditka's third and final season as the Saints' head coach, as he was fired, along with his entire coaching staff and general manager Bill Kuharich, three days after the conclusion of the season. This was the final season that the Saints used their primary Fleur-de-lis logo. Beginning the next season, the logo was slightly upgraded into a more 3D-esque design, which the team still uses today. After finishing the last two seasons at 6–10, the bottom completely fell out in 1999. After they won their opener, the Saints proceeded to lose their next seven games, one of which was to the reactivated Cleveland Browns on a hail mary as time expired. This resulted in the Browns first win since their reactivation. After this the Saints never recovered and ended the season 3–13, tying their worst record since the infamous 1980 1–15 season and the worst record of Coach Ditka's career. The Saints failed to win a road game during the season, the first time since 1975 that they failed to win a game away from the Superdome. With their loss to the Browns, the Saints became the only team since the NFL/AFL merger in 1970 to lose to the last winless team in successive seasons.http://www.footballgeography.com/?p=3261 Last Winless NFL Team(s) in Each Season 2013-02-02 https://archive.today/20130111025323/http://www.footballgeography.com/?p=3261 2013-01-11 dead Offseason NFL draft 1999 NFL draft Ricky Williams trade With the only pick in the draft the New Orleans Saints selected running back Ricky Williams out of the University of Texas with the fifth overall pick. The Saints traded all of their draft picks in the 1999 draft in order to move up so they could draft Williams, as well as a first round pick in the 2000 NFL draft that eventually was used by the Washington Redskins to draft LaVar Arrington. The move was heavily criticized by fans and the media, especially after a magazine cover in New Orleans posted a front cover picture of Ditka and Williams, with the latter shown in a wedding dress. 1999 New Orleans Saints 1 5 Ricky Williams RB Texas from Carolina via Washington yes yes no Personnel Staff 1999 New Orleans Saints Owner – Tom Benson President/general manager/chief operating officer – Bill Kuharich Vice president of football operations/assistant general manager – Charles Bailey Director of college scouting – Bruce Lemmerman Head coach – Mike Ditka Assistant head coach/linebackers – Rick Venturi Offensive coordinator – Danny Abramowicz Quarterbacks – Tom Clements Running backs – Lary Kuharich Wide receivers – Harold Jackson Tight ends/offensive line assistant – Dan Neal Offensive line – Bill Meyers Offensive assistant – Judd Garrett Offensive assistant/tight ends – Rodney Holman Defensive coordinator – Zaven Yaralian Defensive line – Walt Corey Defensive backs – Carlos Mainord Defensive assistant/pass rush – Rickey Jackson Defensive assistant/linebackers – Ned James Special teams – Bobby April Strength and conditioning – Mike Woicik Assistant strength and conditioning – Markus Paul Roster 1999 New Orleans Saints 53 13 3  9 Jake Delhomme 12 Billy Joe Hobert 11 Billy Joe Tolliver  7 Danny Wuerffel 32 Aaron Craver FB 28 Troy Davis KR 33 Wilmont Perry 37 Dino Philyaw KR 40 Marvin Powell FB 26 Lamar Smith 34 Ricky Williams 81 Lawrence Dawsey 80 P.

The Saints would take a 16–14 lead with 0:21 left in the game. On the final play of the game, Cleveland quarterback Tim Couch heaved a Hail Mary pass into the end zone that was tipped by several New Orleans defenders before being caught by Browns wide receiver Kevin Johnson as the clock struck 0:00, giving Cleveland its first win since December 17, 1995. The Saints' offense finished the game with 351 yards of total offense and controlled the ball for 40:50, while the Browns' offense only had 243 total yards and a possession time of 19:10. However, New Orleans committed five turnovers, two of which gave Cleveland a short field that resulted in touchdowns for the Browns. With the loss, the Saints fell to 1–7 and their losing streak was extended to six games. Additionally, the Saints became the first team to lose to the expansion Browns and lost to the last winless team in the NFL, having lost to the 0–7 Carolina Panthers during week 9 of the previous season. This also marked the second time an expansion franchise got its first win over New Orleans, as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who started 0–26, got its first win as a franchise by defeating the Saints 33–14 during the 1977 season.
