New Orleans Saints GM Mickey Loomis talks Buccaneers game, upcoming Patriots matchup

Lol, the Saints offense haven't scored a TD in like 7 quarters of football. Zach Wilson is putitng up more touchdowns than our QB & Zach stinks.

We currently lead the league in holding calls and have more turnovers than TDs. I guess LD Bell is 16-38 as a HC for a reason.

Wonder what Loomis will say if they take another L on sunday?

I don’t wonder what he’ll say. And I know he won’t DO anything. So there’s that.

What is an LD Bell?

"I agree the sky is not falling but we also have to act like it is falling in some degree and have a sense of urgency about improving, paying attention to details otherwise we are going to find ourselves in the same boat week after week," Loomis said.

He is right that we do need to act like the sky is falling to some degree and have a sense of urgency. Hopefully he means a sense of urgency to win, not to trade away our 1st round pick and end up with no insurance if it gets worse.

However, if we find ourselves in the same boat a few more weeks in a row, that can't go on forever week to week. Eventually if it keeps going on into november or december, Allen and Carmichael need to find themselves on a different boat in December, a Carnival cruise boat, on Sunday. You can't have a sense of urgency without eventual consequences for lack of results. The perception of the lack of consequences for a lack of results is often what creates a lack of urgency.

Loomis needs to stop speaking about the team's issues in the context of "this season".

Carmichael's streak of sub par performance is now 2+ years long.

This is true.

I agree with what Loomis was trying to convey. You have to have urgency, but you can't have so much urgency that it causes you to become reckless.

After failing to exceed 20 points the first 3 weeks just like us, the Bears scored 28 points in week 4 and 27+ so far in week 5. Did they do this by the GM coming out and publicly guaranteeing everyone's job security? No. It was pretty clear jobs were at risk. If anything the team is letting Loomis, Allen, Carmichael, and Allen down by not setting any expectations. If we want them to shape up, they need to sweat.
