Maybe he will take the Mr. Blitz Strong safety with him.

i happy...maybe the new guy can stop a terrible offense with 40 seconds left to play

I can't say I'm upset with this news and it will be nice to see a new face on the Saints' sideline next season - and if anything it will create some excitement for the pre-season and the next regular season.

And for the record Spags was also a LB coach in Philly, so I wouldn't say Del Rio would be the best choice simply because he has that LB experience.

Haslett wasn't too impressive with the Redskins and I think he is under contract with them too - nevertheless, I wouldn't like to see the Saints sign him if he'd be available.

Spags or Nolan... 50/50 ...it is kind of interesting to think that one of these guys might sign with the Saints and the other one with the Failclowns.

From Jeff Duncan's Twitter - In a press conference today Coach Sean Payton said they will keep an open mind in his search for a new defensive coordinator now that Gregg Williams is headed to the Rams. Said he does not have a "profile" for the job. All backgrounds considered.

Payton n GW: "Gregg's meant a lot to us and has been a big reason for the success we've had."

Payton said he would be stunned if Drew Brees wasn't a Saint next year: "I don't think 'stunned' is a strong enough word for it."

Payton on the offseason & improvement: "We've got to find the next Carl Nicks the next Jahri Evans and the next Marques Colston."

Chic on the radio said Payton confirmed GW a goner in a press conference!

Why "the next Jahri Evans"...?

The last time I looked he was under contract through the 2016 season becoming an UFA in 2017.

Hope he never takes his flight back as happened with Kreutz last pre-season, although, clearly I'm hoping for a better outcome than with Kreutz's singing.
