IS DENNIS ALLEN STILL HERE?

I didn't reference past years though because they are irrelevant. What I'm saying is, we are basement dwellers now and will continue to be whilst Loomis and DA are in charge.

If Gayle truly cared, she'd do what's right. But they are still making money, so why would she care about the product on the field?

We aren't basement dwellers now. We're at 2-6 right now playing with primarily backups. That can happen under any regime. But we're getting healthier and coming into the easiest half of our schedule. There are many teams that are in worse shape than we are at this moment.

As for Gayle, she does what most owners should do and that is leaving football to the football people. She's there supporting the team (I see her at all the home games for sure), but she doesn't make the football decisions.

As for making money, the revenue sharing structure of the league guarantees every owner makes money win, lose, or draw. She has no more or no less motivation than any other owner in the league as far as that goes.

I just can't buy into Gayle Benson being the problem. And she married Tom Benson the New Orleans Saints were flying high Tom Benson's will dictates having teams run. Gayle Benson does not know football. She was not from a football family. She did not play football. She married a football owner. This is not Gayle's fault.

If a product or service $ucks for a long time, the OWNER has the ultimate responsibility to either correct it, or go OWN something else.

Interesting takes here. Worth the few minute to watch and listen.
