Dennis Allen makes a great DC, but his strengths are not used at the next level.

That said, I can see a team offering him a ton of money trying to steal him from the Saints as a DC.

Good call

What in the hell does that even mean? You said, over and over again that DA would NEVER be a HC again, you were adamant, and yet here is not only a HC, but ours. No retractions?

Speedo doesn't know. He copied and pasted his "peter principle" text straight out of Wikipedia.

He may not be aware because nobody told him about it on the tweeter.

I think he may have taken the name from Father Guido Sarducci.
That was the character played by Don Novello back in the day.
It was some funny stuff the smoking Man of the Cloth.

Partially. That's been my avatar since avatars became a thing. But not where I got the nickname. I've had that for well over 40 years.

At the time I didn't think he would. I was clearly wrong. Is there something criminal about being wrong about an opinion? He failed miserably in his first attempt, but, as I stated, I sincerely hope his level of competence has risen since then. Do you not agree?
