I don't see a scenario where Haener would even be active against Atlanta.

Re: Haener
 

Yeah, me either. If DA was getting fired the front office might want to see what the boys got.....but, alas.....we'll keep doing what we're doing. Which, is struggling to break even with DA leading us for another crappy season in 2024.

Truly disappointing.

Re: Haener
 

There isn't another coach in the league that would put in an unproven rookie over a veteran when there is still a shot of making the playoffs. Not a single one.

I don't know who's going to be coaching next year, but I'll be pulling for my Saints as I have for the past 56 plus years.

Re: Haener
 

I know that this will bring the ire of a few posters here but Derek Carr really isn't the Saints biggest problem right now and he's likely better than Winston and Haener. In the next draft the Saints should focus on building from the ground up, so to speak. Work on both lines (especially the O-line) and go from there. I'd even get an LB or RB before thinking about drafting a QB.

Carr's numbers aren't bad :couch: -- I know he's got situational awareness issues-- but I think that the Saints can work with him going forward. That and they're married to his contract for a while as well.

Amen.

Translation: I feel fine with the doggie doo that’s been served up all season, and I’ll be fine with it next season. And I’ll keep coming back here to try to convince y’all that it’s filet mignon.

Re: Haener
 

At this point, we have to be realistic and assess the situation based on the way this organization runs. I’m pretty sure Carr will be the QB and Allen will be the coach. Saints have the 13th ranked defense which will save Allen his job, and I’ve started seeing more and more Saints fan make the same excuses for Carr that Raiders fans did for those 9 years of mediocrity. They’re going to run it back and we’ll have to pray for the best. I’m not sure who the offensive coordinator will be, but Ken Dorsey fits the mold of someone I believe Mickey Loomis would like.

Any optimism I had about this organization is currently running close to empty. I see Carr as nothing more than an expensive band aid trying to cover up multiple bullet wounds. I don’t think he’s better than Jameis Winston at anything other than protecting the ball. Andy Dalton could have given us 21 TD’s and 8 picks on a season for a whole lot cheaper, but Carr and his contract is here to stay.

This rebuild is going to be messy, and if we aren’t strategic and lucky, very long. Depending on what we do going forward, we could have $96 million in cap space going into 2026. That’s the Arch Manning year. Sounds like a story the NFL script writers might be interested in. Arch comes home to New Orleans to redeem his grandfathers team.

Gonna be some pain…

Re: Haener
 

I don't believe any of our QBs have shown us what they have. We have the worst OC in the league. An OC can make all the difference in the world for a QB. I won't say anything about any QB until we get an OC that can call plays. Situational awareness issues within the context of a play could be due to how the play is designed read-wise, I am warning you all against reading anything into any QB we have. Like I see people saying Carr missed someone open but it might be one of the last reads in the play scheme. The QB may see someone open along the way but how they view the play is dependent on the OC. Playreads are more technical than people realize. It's like the order of operations or something. Carmichael also sucks so hard in the red zone. I don't care for Winston honestly, but I'm even giving him a pass.
