Re: Fire Dennis Allen NOW
I think that we are done firing coaches until we get our new OC who may want to bring his own staff with him. Can't we just clone Payton and bring him in to run the offense?

Re: Fire Dennis Allen NOW
The Saints have talent. Keeping Allen around for another year is just another year of wasting that talent. He's not a bad guy. He's not a terrible coach. But there's nothing he excels at. He's not a good offensive guy. He's not a great defensive guy. He's not a great motivator. He's just not a good leader in any way shape or form. Next season will be at best the same. I predict worse.

Re: Fire Dennis Allen NOW
At least for me there's a lot of anticipation for the OC hire. It's not just our offense - it's that we are already operating from a big deficit with Allen at coach and just hope they hire someone that can offset some of it and instill some kind of a plan and direction.

Re: Fire Dennis Allen NOW
Payton with 2 less wins in his first year with way more talent and a harder schedule.

I just think that he needs to take some of that experience and put his own twist to things and see where it takes us. I just think it’s important to make it his own. I feel like promoting coaches in some ways is a crap shoot like drafting players. You think Dallas would’ve let Sean go if they knew what they had in him? I understand your perspective, just looking at it from a different angle |

Yet I see the Saints miss (yet again) post season, no real changes to improve. IMO the Saints should have been given Ronald Curry full reins for a legit OC audition after getting embarassed coming off a bye week. How many times have I heard Loomis claim that they are in "win now" mode? 3-4 years now. It ain't working boss. Try new things. McVay & Kyle Shanahan tree (Zac Robinson, Kubiak) would be a great place to start at OC. At this point, I don't see promoting from within as a long term solution. Atlanta & Tampa (although the Bucs continue to find ways win in a terrible division) are going to get better but Dennis is still "chopping wood". But I hear you brother. |

Just not completely opposed to promoting Curry as well…he may have something to offer. As far as Allen is concerned…well the results speak for themselves. |
