Shocking.

If we fire Dennis Allen and get a new captain then the ship might right itself.

Loomis said “We have the right people in the building.” So there’s our problem.

FWIW, I voted for the Mickster Loomis in this poll. It's comments like this that make me wonder what the hell are we doing here ?

He needs to geaux too.

I've been thinking that with all the gaslighting and arrogance Mickey Loomis would've made a great televangelist. The guy missed his calling.

Re: Poll: If you could fire one today?

I voted for Pete due to the way the question is phrased. Fire one, the rest get the remainder of the season, I fire Pete. Firing Loomis won't help this offense in the middle of the season. let someone else call the plays and see what happens and then you can clean house when the season is over.

I get what you’re saying, but I think Pete is the least problematic here of the issues we’re having. Don’t get me wrong, I want him gone, but solely on the fact that I feel we’re boring and predictable. However there still are receivers getting open and touchdowns being missed and that’s solely on Carr. And the fact that Carr is not being benched is on Allen- which he clearly stated weeks ago that he would sit anyone who wasn’t putting in full effort and executing, it didn’t matter who they were. And Allen doesn’t seem to have accountability for not fixing blatant issues which is on….you guessed it! The ol mickster.
It starts at the top. Even in mid season I would put the hammer down on our GM…especially with that garbage comment he made about having the right people in place. That’s where the problem lies imo. The season is pretty much wasted at anyways at the rate we’re going, great time to send a major message.

Yeah, fixing the offense in the middle of THIS season, would just be one bandaid on a team that is dancing with a wood chipper that looks like it ain’t going anywhere soon.

In Loomis' spot his only play at this point is to say that he's made the right choices with the Saints coaches. He can't really say that these beta boys are trash (though he should let them both go). I'm hoping that Loomis knows that this product is garbage and will clean house sooner rather than later.

Despite the fact that these coaches aren't leaders of men, I think the most egregious failure is Carmichael. He should be able to do something with this offense but it suuucks.

Unfortunately, Pete won't be fired until after the season as a scapegoat while Allen and company get another year of mediocrity. When in reality, we need new coaching from the top down. Yes, we have a couple of good position coaches but everybody else needs to be on the chopping block!
