In one season they were back in the playoffs and won a Super Bowl. Offense was unstoppable down the stretch. Play calling in the Playoffs and SuperBowl was awesome.

Glad we waited and got our guy.

Re: Saints Hire Kellen Moore as Head Coach

Article mentions Christian Parker, Philly’s defensive backs coach and a longtime Vic Fangio protege, as a DC possibility.

The New Orleans Saints announced today that they have agreed with Kellen Moore to become the 19th head coach in franchise history.

Moore, a 13-year NFL veteran, played quarterback for six seasons (2012-17) and entered the coaching ranks in 2018, serving as an offensive coordinator for the past six campaigns. Moore comes to New Orleans after serving as offensive coordinator of the Philadelphia Eagles in 2024.

"At the start of the interview process, it was important to find a head coach who was the right fit for the New Orleans Saints organization," said Owner Gayle Benson. "Through the search process, it became clear that Kellen is the right person to help us re-establish a winning program and culture that our fans are accustomed to and have come to expect. I would also like to thank Darren Rizzi for his service as interim coach and leading our team this past season. I am truly grateful to him."

"I would like to welcome Kellen Moore and his family to New Orleans," said Saints Executive Vice President/General Manager Mickey Loomis. "He is an outstanding communicator with the ability to lead people and has a clear vision for this football team. Through this head coaching search, we had the opportunity to meet with several impressive candidates and I thank them for their hard work and preparation in this process."

"I am excited to join the New Orleans Saints and deeply appreciate the faith that Mrs. Benson and the entire Saints organization have placed in me," Moore said. "I look forward to embracing the challenges ahead and am eager to get started. I would also like to thank the Philadelphia Eagles for an incredible 2024 season. I'm excited to begin this new chapter."

Re: Saints Hire Kellen Moore as Head Coach

I thought Kellen did a nice job of calling plays in the Super Bowl in particular. He didn't get too cute with offense, but kept the playcalls fairly varied and unpredictable.

Here's hoping he gets the hang of things and build a culture like COTY Kevin O'Connell. He has that upside and hopefully Mickey lets him take the wheel.
