Why is it the twilight zone to suggest one as a replacement and totally reasonable to suggest the other? To me they are totally equivalent, most of their past track record is shared on the same sideline.

Also both Allen and Lewis had Carson Palmer as their QB. Guess who won more with Palmer? Lewis is a superior coach to Allen in every possible way who would probably be available at a moments notice. Its like trading the Terrelle Pryor / Matt McGloin of head coaches for the Carson Palmer / Andy Dalton of head coaches. Neither are Sean Payton / Drew Brees but its a safe immediate upgrade.

So your solution to fixing the Saints 4 games into the season is fire Allen and bring in a 64 year old coach not connected or familiar with the system, players, or team who is a career +3 games over .500 over a 16 year career and who knows he is there as a lame duck?

I’ll repeat my answer. No.
