I know Ditka had a horrible win-loss record, but I do not think he set the franchise back at all. He did well at building the front lines up, got a great running back, but unfortunately never found the QB to get it done. The year after he was fired the Saints actually did something, like win a playoff game. The reason is Jeff Blake was decent and Aaron Brooks did a nice job too. All it took was decent play at the QB position and the tables turned. I believe if Ditka would have found a decent QB, the Saints would have been champions much sooner, and perhaps still coaching the team.
