Re: Saints fans launch petition asking team to fire Dennis Allen
I don't think Im making my point clear. Im not comparing Sean Payton to Dennis Allen. Payton is a better coach. There are only 3-4 other coaches Id put even at his level. So comparing Allen to him is silly in my mind. Its like comparing other QBs to Brees.
I am saying that evaluating any coach's performance has to be based on many factors and the players he had to work with, including injuries, have to be considered among those factors. Case in point the defending champs are crappy this year. People excuse it by saying "they have their top WR and QB out with injuries". I believe the Saints have had their top WR and starting QBs injured this year. People were willing to cut Allen loose before the season was even halfway over because of Kamra/Ingram fumbles and bad officiating had them lose a couple games they shouldn't have. Maybe Allen isn't the guy...but saying he isn't before giving him a fair chance is wrong IMO. |

Re: Saints fans launch petition asking team to fire Dennis Allen
For the record, my rant’s started after the Arizona’s game when he was asked after Dalton’s threw a red zone interception & two picks six before halftime, what did he say to Dalton; his response was keep doing what you’re doing. I would’ve preferred hearing take care of the football.

He seems out of his depth and willing to let the players take on his responsibility. |

Respectfully Dizzle, you're making assumptions here.
