He seems out of his depth and willing to let the players take on his responsibility.
Respectfully Dizzle, you're making assumptions here.

Or maybe the players know it’s on them for playing like crap and not being responsible for their performance. Fumbles and missed tackles aren’t always on the coach.

Why? he has doesn't have a Quarterback, it's his first year as a head coach. give the a guy a chance. Were all spoiled, Thank Drew Brees and Sean Payton for that.

I don't get wanting to fire him when we go 10-7 in the regular season and 4-0 in the playoffs.

Championship!!

Something to consider here, diz ... was it Sean Payton alone that motivated the players? I believe that Drew Brees and other players were tremendous motivating factors. I have no doubt that Allen, and the other coaches, are doing all they can as far as motivation goes, but losing a leader like Drew Brees leaves a huge vacuum. I believe it was a void that Payton himself couldn't fill last season.

How about we start a petition for the RBs to get their heads out of their a$$es!

Allen’s got 99 problems but that ain’t one. Those players are grown ass men and playing at a professional level, if they aren’t able to reach down and drag their own d1cks out of the dirt by now then maybe they shouldn’t be out there. They have ALL faced adversity before and should be seasoned enough to overcome that crap.

Your boss come in on Monday and give you a pep talk?

That should have been a field position play to tie the game with a FG.

I was thinking same thing Oak. Of course, I thought a lot of Payton’s calls were suspect too.
