Re: Fire Dennis Allen NOW
Maybe those actually in the business have a better understanding of Dennis Allen's worth as a head coach than all of us on the outside looking in. I'll guarantee you that they have a better point of view than I do and I'd be willing to bet they also have more insight than the rest of us, as well.
Then again, they might think he sucks too. ![]() |

There is a difference between access / vantage point and smarts. The guy who built that Titan Submersible knew more about it than any of the outsiders or consultants who were concerned about its safety, but his additional information, access, and vantage point did not translate to a sound evaluation, because he also had the most biased view and the most invested in his previous course proving right and visionary, so he could not see the flaws because he had too much invested. The Saints front office, coaching staff, salary cap structure, and aging roster are kind of like the Titan Submersible. The guy who built it believes it can withstand pressures down to 4,000 meters, but outsiders see the warning signs and can hear the walls cracking after 3 straight years of league leading spending for mediocre results and an aging core. |

I certainly hope that’s not the case, but I’m sure we’ll know more when the season begins. Has anyone even heard of anyone even remotely interested in the OC job here? Or anyone the Saints are looking at? Cause it’s quiet….too quiet. Lol! |

Re: Fire Dennis Allen NOW
Tampa has an OC opening now they'll need to fill. Harbaugh might need bodies for his staff in SD. Atlanta likely will soon as well considering who they hire for HC. Not saying we have to rush it, but the reality is the demand is going upward and the supply will be going downward.

I would rather not compromise too much and rush to the candidate with no other prospects. We got Sean Payton by being patient. We got Dennis Allen by rushing it.
