I get the same impression and "technician" is a good descriptor.

While Dennis is the opposite of Sean McVay, it isn't a positive.

I'd take McVay's "attitude" as a HC over DA's any day.

And his record reflect it.

61% regular season. 63% in playoffs. 1-1 in the Superbowl.

I really despise the 'Boy Genius', but once again, numbers don't lie.

FWIW, Underhill thinks TCU Kendre Miller is “on the fence” to make the team, while Jamaal Williams is a “near lock”. Can’t make the club from the tub.

That ain’t really saying much in NOLA🤔.

Taysom Hill is perhaps my favorite Player to wear a Saints Uniform (along with Brees), and as much as I love it whenever he is on the field, I am concerned that our lack of focus and development elsewhere, is gonna get him hurt.
