What we didn't have was Dennis Allen in charge of the defense.

Guess what… you don’t have Dennis Allen in charge of your defense now.. You have no one in charge of your defense now.

It's been reported DA will still call plays. Wonder if that's true. Also wonder if Kris takes over as DC.

Maybe he will, maybe that’s what he did with the Raiders that kept his record under .300. Dennis is in damage control and will say anything to quiet the press hoard.

Wow we see things very differently. You think things are that bad huh?

Dennis Allen, Raiders coach, won't call defensive plays

Published: Aug 16, 2012 at 11:48 AM

Allen has a difficult task with this Raiders team. He's changing schemes dramatically on both sides of the ball without the benefit of many new players.

In that situation, most coaches would try to do everything to make their imprint on the squad by calling plays. By controlling everything possible. Allen won't go that route.

Defensive coordinator Jason Tarver will call the defense. Offensive coordinator Greg Knapp will call the offense.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Also note that the Saints defense went to hell in a handbasket in 2012 when DA left.

Allen was under .300 because he had no players in place to run his defense. He has nothing but his players in place here in New Orleans. Incredibly huge difference.

IDK Oak. Let’s give the guy a try. Plenty of guys did better in their second stint as a coach. D and special teams should still be strengths. Hopefully Oline is healthy and Thomas goes back to playing like he did three years ago. Maybe they will go get an outside big name OC that can attract a QB and other players.

The Kamara situation really hurts. Now the team has to look at adding backfield talent as much as, if not more so, than WR. That’s why I mentioned Phillips Lindsay in a different thread. He reminds me a bit of a poor man’s Pierre Thomas.

But without Brady, Tampa will likely suck. The division is still ours for the taking. Unless Tampa goes out and gets Rodgers or Wilson or Murray to replace Brady. That would suck.

Yup. DA inferred at his press conference that he didn't want to give up those duties. Heck, if Payton could call offense and head coach then DA should be able to do the same defensively, right?

Oh, so Dennis Allen is going to wash his hands of the defense and let someone else control it all. He'll just do the defensive playcalling on gameday. Gotcha.
