Mora took this franchise somewhere it had never been before. To winning records, the play offs, and the dome patrol was his doing as well. I for one am not ashamed to look back on those years now, and smile. Thanks Mora! Just wish he would have had an offense to go with that earth shattering defense....

While the Saints didnt have an offense anywhere near as potent as the 2011 version, it could have been used better and was certainly capable of getting the Saints to a Super Bowl and winning it!

With idiot Carl Smith as OC, the Saints were doomed.

That's what I was thinking when all these people were clowning on Mora.

Maybe share his tips on that Dome Patrol of his.

All Mora did was disprove that idiotic cliche that "defense wins championships". We had the best defense in the NFL for two years running and didn't even make the playoffs.

Maverick2299 · 08-03-2011, 09:06 AM

Defense wins super bowls....but he Offense gets you to playoffs.

SaintPauly · 08-03-2011, 09:07 AM

We made the play offs 4 times with Mora as head coach, and won the NFCW for the first time ever. Now, we didn't WIN any of those play off games, but we never had a losing season, when the Dome Patrol was playing together.
