NFC South Preview: New Orleans Saints
 
I hope Ryan doesn't get a head coaching itch that he wants to scratch!

Rob Ryan is truly a magician.

A year after the Saints gave up the most yards in the history of the NFL, Ryan went full-on mad scientist and changed the system and culture of the Saints.

Last year, New Orleans was fourth in points per game– a year after being ranked 31st. That’s insane. Going from an all-time terrible defense to arguably the best in the NFC South is nothing short of magic.

There is really no reason that Ryan doesn’t have a head coaching job after the near miracle he performed in the Bayou last year.

Rob Ryan is truly a magician. ????????????????

he was given a gift by following Spaz here after one year. 5 to 1 if he gets a gig it will not go that well for him

Rob's no magician. He's just not stupid. The pieces, largely, were in place. We just weren't using our guys to their talents. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that. All props to Ryan, for sure. I'm not lessening what he did, but he's no magician. He's just a smart man when it comes to football players and how to use them.

Maybe not a magician but Ryan deserves a lot of credit for our defensive turnaround. To go from last to Top 5 takes more than just having good players. Otherwise lets just put another joe schmo in there as DC and let's see how we do. Personally, I would hate to see him go.

I think once he leaves for a HC job our defense plummets to 15-25 range. Then once he gets fired we should bring him back.

Why worry about when he leaves?! Shouldn't we be enjoying the present while he's here?

Ryan likes the city too much to leave
plus his brother has probably warned him about head coaching jobs

I like that projection

Moving Forward:

This is the best team in the NFC South. A stout defense will be buoyed by Vaccaro’s return from injury and the signing of Jairus Byrd to secure the secondary. Moreover, another year of Ryan can’t hurt a team.

While Darren Sproles will be missed in the passing game, Brandin Cooks will be a dynamic slot receiver to keep Brees’ armory full. Plus, Sproles absence will mean less of a log jam at the running back position, allowing Ingram and Thomas (both backs who thrive on multiple carries) a chance to see the ball more. The Saints will win the division and have a serious shot to add another Super Bowl win to their growing history.

And that is a higher compliment than saying he's a magician.
