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.

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.

I wouldn’t rule out Doug Marrone as a OC candidate.

Not a preferred choice of mine but I could see Dennis making a call.

What about o-line coach? That's the position he held at Alabama before just being replaced last week. Our current coach, Brendan Nugent, hasn't exactly excelled at improving Ruiz over the past season.

Go listen to Underhill's most recent podcast on the list of OC candidates.

Ruiz was a reach. Not a 1st round talent no matter who's coaching him.

Saints looking to add Doug Marrone and John Morton. Kinda on the fence about how I feel about these guys:

Also starting to think maybe moving PC to another roll may be so he can completely focus on the QB situation, we shall see.

I'm happy to have Marrone back. Tons of experience with extensive OL expertise. A move in the right direction.

DA bringing back a familiar face. Doug brought some air yards back in the day!

Excited to see how this is beginning to take shape.

So far we have 2 vets in some sort of "role" with the offense yet no official OC.

Interesting. Are we tapping Eric B or a college coach?

Hopefully, Dougie M can light a flame under Ruiz's a**.

Bring in better backups on that O-line as well.
