There is also a lack of accountability and motivation. This even the players admitted to when AK held his meeting to address it… if your employees are holding meetings discussing the lack of accountability and motivation, the. Coaching is the problem.

You only hear about those player led meetings when the team is losing.

Most of what we are dealing with right now comes down to one thing ...

Lol.

Last time I checked, Dennis Allen is 12-36 (.250) as a HEAD COACH. The man is in over his head.

Carry on.

Not saying he shouldn't eventually be replaced. But, to put the entire blame on him is shortsighted.

Again, this isn't Allen's first rodeo as HC. The criticism he's already getting as a 4th year HC is fair, necessary, and appropriate.

His track record (regardless of the circumstances) says he's not a winner and never will be as an HC. The man won ONE (1) back-to-back game in his career as HC. 3 years of evidence say he sucks & can't lead a team.

And for the record, I've never put the entire blame on Allen. Not sure where you got that nonsense from.

Where did I ever say YOU personally put the entire blame on Allen? Not sure where you got that nonsense from.

NOBODY put the entire blame on Allen. But to say that the Head Coach is not largely responsible for what happens after the opening whistle blows, game after game, would be shortsighted, to say the least.

Re: Observations from the saints Loss to the 49ers

There are 3 possibilities, Allen is: lousy, average, or great as head coach. Overall our team is performing lousy but it can be debated whether that's the fault of Allen, Loomis, or the performance and health of the players Loomis, Allen, and Payton hand picked to be on the team.

The thing is, firing Allen will only be a mistake if Allen is great. If Allen is an average head coach faced with difficult circumstances, firing him won't automatically make things better, but it won't on average make them worse either, it will just be something we tried as part of the process of elimination to solve the problem, cutting loose an average replacement level dude, an AJ Klein or Andy Dalton of head coaches.

Firing Allen would only be a disaster if Allen is actually a great head coach. Now, Allen has a career .250 record taking over previously ~.500 teams in 3 years and has only won back-to-back games once. So I would say that whether he is lousy or average, the evidence strongly suggests that Allen is not great. Therefore, I don't see much risk in getting rid of Allen. Whatever he is, lousy or average, and the record points to lousy, he can't be great and lose that much.

Re: Observations from the saints Loss to the 49ers

Since I was out watching the Commanders game with my Uncle, I missed most of the game.

1) For all of that vaunted offensive firepower, they only scored 13. Were the 49ers that bad on offense, or were our boys playing that well on D?
2) Judging from the comments, we once again were on the back side of the T/O curve. Did we have any RB's available to replace AK after he was obviosly struggling?
3) How did the O line look vs. Bosa and friends? Was AD under pressure or was he just undecisive in getting rid of the ball?
4) What did the DAs D line pressure look like? What about the playcalling from PC?

Thanks for your feedback.

A wise man once said, "Poo-poo smells just as bad as s#!%. One just SOUNDS cuter!"
