Pete Carmichael will stay on as the Saints offensive coordinator

So it’s the Sean Payton Saints minus Sean Payton and we’re expecting improvement?

What are you worried about we got Doug Marrone...
But seriously our O-Line should show improvement.

“Hopefully” it’s the Saints minus Payton...but plus Thomas and minus the fascination Payton had that Hill can be a viable QB. Simply getting rid of some of Payton’s ideas including his “projects” may go a long way to helping the team. Baptiste anyone? I don’t want to hack on Book either, but he is a project guy I doubt many HCs would have taken when/where Payton drafted him. Hope he proves me dead wrong.

I think Hill might become a really good TE in a short period of time. I don't look at him as a qb anymore. One more concussion with the his style of play bothers me also. I can't discount Book yet but he's tough. He might do better with a line to protect him. We got Bortles also, he will beat Hill out in camp if the Hill experiment continues.

Fair question... and in all fairness also, we should always expect and see improvement, no matter who is at the helm. We'll see what portends.

True. There were more than a few complaining that Payton was getting stale for lack of a better word.

I'm expecting improvement just based upon the degree in which the offense was decimated last year. It CAN'T get worse ... can it?

A perennial top 10 offense. Outside of personnel, what needs to be improved?

I'll be curious to see what Dougie M does with the O line. Specifically RUIZ, Peat & Landon Young.

Collectively, the Saints O line didn't perform up to their potential in 2021, even when healthy.
