i will never forget this. It was his first game in the regular season we just lost the game bad. The local news was asking fans walking out of the dome what did they think. This one fan said this "Welcome to the NFL Jim Moron". That stuck with me through all his years here. I have never called him anything different since then.

He was fine for what he did but you can't replace a coach that plays to win with one that plays not to lose. How could anyone forget Carl Smith? Hand off, Hand off, thow a 5 and out when you need 8. Let Morten win it at the gun.

Yes, vpheughan , you are right.

No, you cannot win , be a real contender with 3pts. 3pts. FG, FG. ...

I should have been more specific; Dungy had Peyton Manning - Peyton was the Coach and Dungy was the Cruise Director.

Jim Finks provided talent - save a quarterback. That was why Mora was successful.

Mitch, I should have been more specific.
The Saints ' then were good enopugh. I think and thank Jim Mora for that. HE did to the best of his ability. THat was his ability. We were winners...so we thought because the Saints had never had any kind of wins like that. 8-8, 9-7, Wildcard Playoff, whew!!!

Seeing SP, ok, that is how it is done. Oh.

I stand by my post, you cannot be a real contender on 3tpts. 3pts. and the other team is coming at you with 7's. No offense. No qb. So-so qb. Second string qb (Forucade) running out of the pocket. Great defense. Great accurate placekicker. Morten was top in the league. His record and ranking stand.
That was then. Now is now.
