METAIRIE, La. — On Sept. 30, moments after the Saints fell to 0-4 by falling two points short of a win at Green Bay, then-interim head coach Aaron Kromer stood beneath the Lambeau Field stands, defiantly likening the task in front of the team to mountain climbing.

He promised that the team would fight back and would, eventually, climb that mountain, “because the Saints always do things that people don’t expect. It’s part of our nature.”

Seven weeks later, the Saints have found their way back to .500, winning five of the past six games and turning what once looked to be a forgettable season into what could turn out to be something special.

Just don’t ask now-interim head coach Joe Vitt about that mountain.
The curmudgeonly 58-year-old doesn’t want to hear it.

You never say die. Never give up. You fight till the is over, and it's not over.
