"Bad calls" aside, a Head Coach having nothing to do with his Star Running Back's fumbles... or his Kicker missing Field Goals... or his Receiver not holding on to the ball as he hits the ground... would have to be either blind, or ineffective. PERIOD.

No attention to detail (hence Saints lead the league in false start penalties), holding coaches and players accountable. Listen at some of his post game interviews. Same song and dance, every week but says nothing to resolve a problem.

Allen isn't a rookie HC. He's had 48 games as HC and lost 36 of em.

I agree with this.

Do you think Sean P would have trotted AK back out to the field after the second fumble vs San Fran?

"Keep doing what you're doing" - Dennis Allen.

Not this. I mean... who else would we have thrown out there? I get the frustration though.

You know, I haven't considered Kamara to be a true lead back for quite some time. He's more of an offensive weapon that plays running back. I'd like to have one of those again. Someone that can pound the rock and get crucial yards when we need it. Someone that can wear down and defense and break one when we need it. The good ole Deuce days was nice. Kamara isn't that guy.

How much does Mark Ingram have left in the tank? I thought the idea was to use Ingram and Kamara in tandem? or something like that. I realize that SF's run D is very good but still...Andy Dalton is the Saints leading rusher for the day?

So that doesn’t answer my question. What do you do to prevent a missed FG or Kamara fumbling? What Magic did Payton have that told Kamara not to fumble and why does Kamara feel it’s Ok to fumble now ?

Sinner, by this logic a coach could design the perfect play for a QB to hit a wide open receiver and because the QB makes a poor throw or the receiver drops the pass or fumbles after catching it or the ref calls a BS PI call the coach is at fault.

Nope. Not saying that at all. In game decisions such as going for it or not on 4th down or game clock management is mostly on the head coach, of course. But if coaching was to blame for mistakes made by the players it is more on the shoulders of the positional coaches and that comes on what they do during the week. But, once the game kicks off everything else other than playcalling falls on the players themselves. The head coach isn't fumbling the ball, missing tackles, or taking a pass off their facemask.
