So, the question remains then: why did they (SP at the forefront) hire Spags in the first place if his system was so wrong for the players the Saints had/have?!

Was Spags himself another square peg the organization tried to force into a round hole - not letting him play to his strengths, but forcing him to adapt to the situation and become something he is not?!

I just think that a year away from the team gave SP a new perspective and the wheels started turning on a more dynamic plan to put the Saints back to their former status & take advantage of Brees' remaining years.

Who knows what would have happened had SP not been suspended? Perhaps the Saints would have had a decent season & stayed with Spags and the 4-3. As it is, I think SP figured the Saints' defense pretty much hit rock bottom, so with nowhere to go but up, it's the perfect time to try something new.

Drastic times call for drastic measures. I'm glad SP has the cajones to make such moves and I'm also glad Loomis/Benson have the faith & confidence in their H/C to make such a move.

It's what I like about the Saints, they don't f#ck around, eh?
