Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

I actually don’t give a hoot how much money a coach wants to coach here. It doesn’t affect the cap and it’s not my money being blown. I just want a good coach.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Gruden might be the only one who can salvage this team.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

You said the quiet part out loud.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Gruden might be the only one who will take the job. Everyone has their preferences but I just want someone that can manage this mess of a roster and put this team on track to winning. Be it Moore, Kafka, Weaver or Gruden. **** I don’t care if it’s a watermelon with a hat on. Just get someone that’ll take care of business.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

I guess it could be worse but I’d rather have Gruden

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

As painful and inconvenient as reality can be, we often need a dose of it. New Orleans was not the first choice for either Sean Payton or Drew Brees and nothing has changed in the front office since 2006 to change that. One could argue that we are less attractive now with a disengaged owner.

Sean desperately wanted to coach the Giants and when he read that the job went to McCarthy he threw his phone. Loomis did not lure him away from Dallas.

Drews first choice was Miami, we did not attract him until his options were limited.

Who has Sean openly stated was his mentor? His mentor on a daily basis was Tom Benson and he has stated that publicly.

If we want to be a team that attracts talent we need to name a Head Coach that players want to play for above everything else. We need to also stop pretending that Mickey Loomis is anything but a contract manager because in the word of football where things matter on the field he is not on anyone's radar. It is time to ask your roster who they want to play for; if your team wants to play for someone, chances are other teams players want to play for them as well. :bng:

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

You could hire Bill Walsh or Any Reid, wouldn't matter. As long as that fool, Loomis, is in charge you're not winning

Slight correction... it was GB, not the Giants. Point remains the same, however.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Is what you consider a disengaged owner less attractive than an owner like Jerry Jones?

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

It certainly looks like it’s gonna be Moore. I don’t take issue with it. He’s young and has done well everywhere he’s been.

It can’t get any worse than last year. Literally anyone is better than DA.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

I’m cool with Moore.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

I had a software engineering interview that went 90 minutes today. My wife thought that was a long one. I told her about NFL HC interviews going 6-7 hours. Her mind was blown.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Hope the interview works out for you!

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

I don't know how to do Twitter/X links here, but I'm seeing this per Rapoport:

As the #Saints zero in on Kellen Moore, slated to have another conversation with him after the Super Bowl, interim coach Darren Rizzi is likely to become the new #Broncos special teams coordinator, sources say.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

While I'd hate to lose Rizzi because the players love him and the fact that he's an elite ST Coach, it is what it is.

So it's an entirely new regime and we are officially holding the jazz funeral for the Sean Payton era.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

I hope it is Moore, at this point. I'm happier with him than McCarthy or anyone from the Giants organization.

Now, let's think about the pieces we have and need for an offense similar to Philly.

QB - Need (Would Jalen Milroe fit?)
RB - AK and Kendre
OL - Big need
WR - Pretty good shape, but health is a concern
TE - Take Arroyo

I don't think we are that far off from having the right pieces in place.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Here is what I have heard about Moore that I like. Typically, he is a pass first guy, but this year decided to feature the run. It appears he knows when to go with the offenses strengths.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Not sure Milroe is as good as Hurts, but maybe.

My take is suffer this year with the current QB room, cut Carr at some point, and draft a QB next if need be. Next year's class is fixing to be better than this year's crop. Concentrate on beefing up both lines. Now if someone offers us a draft pick for Carr, despite Carr's no trade clause, maybe we should look at that.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

QB- Just gimme a Game Manager at this point.
RB- AK (Short shelf life left) Kendre (Who? The Glass Tiger?)
OL- Definitely need Big Bodies on Interior OL
WR- Get what you can for Olave and reset.
TE- Draft someone who's fearless with decent hands. JJ and FM are serviceable but not threats to opposing D's
I'll add the following:
ILB- Either move Gay to his natural position where he can wreck shop or draft a stud. Either way, Demario should be rotated. He's lost more than a step.
Safety- Same as DD for Honey Badger. Time to move on.

BIGGEST NEED: A NEW GM TO ASSIST A NEW HC IN RIGHTING THIS SHIP!!! :bng:

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Need a run game and strong Offensive and Defensive lines.

Smart, decisive and accurate QB.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

You need a new gm

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Sad truth my brotha. Let’s just hope we can start with the o and d lines.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

I would take Moore or gruden and Jenty in the 1st. Shore up the line and run the ball 75% of the time. Control the clock and the line of scrimmage

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Interesting article with sound logic on why Rattler makes sense as starter for Moore.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Or Judkins or the RB from OK State in the 3rd.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Jeanty in rd 1? I wouldn’t. He’s already carried a ton already in college.
Load up on that defensive front & oline.

In case you haven’t noticed, the offensive depth is poor in New Orleans.

Saints have far too many other needs.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

Team that draft rb in the 1st round are suckers. Virtually no RB is great in the nfl unless the oline and pass game are good. It can only be slightly defensible to draft rv in the 1st if you already have the oline, passing game, and defense, and its in the late 1st. The Falcons went all in on blockbuster rb with Blowjob Robinson and it got them nowhere. This was a fluke year with two free agents and overall rb is cheap in free agency and the draft because its risky and more a product of system rbs. You dont pick rb on day 1.

Re: Head Coaching News and Rumors
 

So did Barry and LT. Look, I know it's a long shot but this kid is the real deal. Team him up with AK and Hill rotating in the backfield. That is a very scary thought for defenses. We have a rd 2 and 2 rd 3 we could load up on the lines.
