So I will respectfully give you an example of how your negativity has clouded your objectivity IMO, Sinner. You say I should go ahead and keep shaking my pom poms or whatever for Dennis Allen. I am pretty darn sure that if you go through my post history you will find ZERO evidence of me saying I think Allen is the man for the job or that I want him as coach. I can make this statement because I'm not convinced he is the man for the job. So, right off the bat you have falsely lumped me into the same 100 percent positive, ask-no-questions group of fans that Guido represents. In a recent post in a different thread I got on him about not being able to see the flaws in the team and the reasons for doubt. So, why would you lump us together?
The answer, I think, is because I won't jump on the "Saints suck, there is no hope, let's just moan and stop purchasing gear and watching games until they are good again" bandwagon that you are happy to drive. I can't understand why it seems to bother you when people don't share that view.
As for DA, I will admit that I was willing to look past his tenure at Oakland because living there for 27 years showed me how dysfunctional that org was. While here he's made mistakes, but so did Payton over the years here (and NO I'm not saying DA is as good as Payton). He improved his win total by 2 between his first and second seasons. If he can do that again he gets to 11 wins and a playoff spot. If not, then he's gone and he will be another one of the Saints failed coached like Ditka.
That's just the way it is. I'll root for him and the team to do well not because he's my choice but because he's the coach and I want to see the team win. Pointing out things like Carr getting his back broken in week 3 last season when they were 2-0 and up 17-0 against the packers are relevant facts. It is not blind support or excuses for DA...he didn't do a good enough coaching job to overcome that issue. But few NFL teams are successful when their starter goes down. That too is a fact.
If you want to root against DA just so you can be right you sure don't need mine or anyone's permission. You do you. But You asked for help in understanding. That's all I'm trying to do.
