That's my main question on Bieniemy, and Leftwich, too. And I suppose Carmichael falls in that same boat.

Assaults (including women), DUI, rape scandal when he was recruiting for Colorado.

Me thinks there’s about to be a major coaching exodus from New Orleans. We are screwed any way you cut it.

Pederson might be a good choice if they don't want to promote from the inside and want an offensive coach as the HC.

Jim Harbaugh?

Yes I noticed that a while after posting. Can't seem to find the article I read about it any longer. Seems like I was to quick to post here.

More like someone in the media was too quick to post. ;)

Some items to consider..

- If the organization does not have a succession plan in place for Sean Payton's replacement, Loomis should be gone.

- If the organization did not know this was coming, Loomis should be gone. Surprises at this level only happen when there is a breakdown in relation ships and there being a breakdown in relation ships should have been a red flag to Loomis to get his ducks in order.

- New coaches from outside tend to being in 'their people', and that has the potential of changing our defense which is in a very good place right now.

- Sean should be considered done, and gone. Never to return again as that statement from him just broke the confidence of every player on that team. His replacement should be brought in ASAP to begin the transitions.

As far as the offense is concerned no changes would make it less consistent, clean the house. Many probably loved Sean and will start looking anyway just like Sean loved Drew and once Drew was gone so was his love of going to work each day.:bng:

According to an interview with Jay Glazer yesterday, he said he saw it coming last summer. He said Sean just seemed tired. He said he talks with Payton almost daily and he said down the stretch this was a known possibility. Loomis and Gayle were aware. I think Payton is too much of a stickler for details to not have discussed contingencies with Loomis. He had already made the decision to leave, but Gayle talked him into taking a couple more days after the season was over to decide for sure. Glazer, laughing, said Payton then disappeared to Cabo with Skylene for two weeks. He said he talked to Payton several times during those two weeks but he was always so drunk he made very little sense. LOL! He said Payton was positive about the decision when he returned.

He basically indicated what you said, Oak, about Payton being done and gone.

There goes one of the possible landing spots for Dennis Allen. Perhaps their expectations was Allen remaining with the Saints.
