2011 New Orleans Saints season
Owner	Tom Benson
Head coach	Sean Payton
Home field	Louisiana Superdome
← 2010 New Orleans Saints seasons 2012 →

The 2011 New Orleans Saints season will be the franchise's 45th season in the National Football League, the 36th to host home games at the Louisiana Superdome and the sixth under head coach Sean Payton.

However, the playing of the 2011 NFL season is contingent upon the adoption of a new collective bargaining agreement (CBA) between the league owners and the National Football League Players Association, the players' labor union. There will be a work stoppage if there is no CBA in place, which may, depending on how long it lasts, shorten or cancel the entire season.
