Are New Orleans Saints interested in Romeo Crennel?

QBREES9 · 01-27-2013, 10:36 AM

The New Orleans Saints are interested in former Kansas City Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel as a candidate to replace fired defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Friday and later confirmed by ProFootballTalk.

Crennel has not had much success as a head coach, but he's repeatedly proven himself an elite coordinator. He won three world championships with the New England Patriots and his work with the Chiefs' defense earned him a promotion when Todd Haley was fired in 2011.

Eric Mangini also is reportedly up for the job, but a source told PFT that Crennel is the preferred choice.

I think he's the ideal choice to install the 3-4 for us, then let some young hot shot take over in a few years.

I'd like to see Romeo work his magic wit the Saints.

This would be a great move

The chiefs are sending 6 defensive players to the pro bowl this year despite only winning 2 games mostly due to Crennels defensive coaching

I think crennel would be the perfect guy to start off our transition to a 3-4 D
