We are now 21 game into this Coaching duo’s leadership, last time this team scored more than 20 points was Nov 20 2022.

Wow, just wow

.

Almost a year? With those weapons? And key pieces from the draft (Penning, Bresee). And an highly compenstated FA at QB?

I'm not sure how the front office brass looked at these type of stats, player personnel and thought it would be a good idea to bring back Pete Carmichael.

If they don't get it together AND FAST, Dennis and this entire staff won't be back in 2024.

Coaching is most definitely the problem.

Even a wounded & battered Patriots team scares me on Sunday.

If I was a betting man and had zero allegiance to this team, I would bet on any team against ours to win. At least currently. If the Saints come out flat again against the Pats (and stay flat all game long) and fail to take advantage of red zone opportunities and just kick FGs, you can stick a fork in this team.

There is no way this team doesn’t already KNOW how good it CAN BE and should be.

Another weak showing or loss could do some serious damage to the locker room and the respect that the players have for the coaches.

The fork was already in this team last season, and it just got stuck in deeper this season, real early. We are TRUE SAINTS FANS, and want nothing more than a winning team… and with this talent, both last year and this year, we should at least be making games more interesting. WE HAVE A MANAGEMENT/COACHING PROBLEM, and no amount of reshuffling deck chairs on the Titanic (which we’re not even doing!) is going to make this better.
