This is a little self indulgent. Don't talk about it. Just do your job.

Re: Rob Ryan on New Orleans Saints fans: 'I don't blame them for hating me'
 

Is it really fair to say that he "can't seem to get it," when his defense was 4th in the league last season?

And wasn't he the defensive coordinator when we got rid of Vilma, Smith, Harper and Jenkins weren't they overpriced vets? Didn't they let Champ walk?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to say he isn't a big part of what's going wrong with the defense this year, I just don't think it's the aging vets problem that we seem to have had here for a long time.

I don't hate anybody ( ok, maybe the Falcons ). Rob Ryan was golden last year. I mean he could have been crowned king of NOLA. So to start hating him this year after only 4 games -- is asinine.

It is both scheme and the player's desire to win -- the talent is there. And, we already know RR can scheme to beat NFL offenses.
Junior and Jordan? They have not shown up. We know they know what to do and how to do it. The fact is they are not doing their jobs

So, other than the secondary playing 15 yards off receivers -- I think this is on the players.

This is not rob Ryan's fault. The players simply don't give a **** which is what disappoints me the most. This unit is clearly capable after seeing how well they played last year. This is a psychological issue with the team. They are barely going through the motions.

Nah, he didn't convert to crApple like you.

Re: Rob Ryan on New Orleans Saints fans: 'I don't blame them for hating me'
 

No hate here RR. I haven't forgotten how to coach

Re: Rob Ryan on New Orleans Saints fans: 'I don't blame them for hating me'
 

RR is the most likable and most 'New Orleans' coach we may have ever had. He is fun to watch on the sidelines, he speaks his mind with no filter. I like the guy, I just hope he can scheme a better defense. I actually think without Jairus Byrd now, we are going to see teams test us deep and it could benefit our defense. Vaccaro and Bush need to step up.

Re: Rob Ryan on New Orleans Saints fans: 'I don't blame them for hating me'
 

I still like Rob Ryan a lot. There have been some critical errors. There were some bright spots in our win over Minnesota and there were some nice moments even against Dallas. Hey our offense turned the ball over, what, like three times??? That's not a recipe for success.

Re: Rob Ryan on New Orleans Saints fans: 'I don't blame them for hating me'
 

I can't stand comments like this.

He -has- to talk about it. Talking to the media is part of the job. Same goes for the players.

Re: Rob Ryan on New Orleans Saints fans: 'I don't blame them for hating me'
 

Hate is a strong word and probably not applicable amongst the Who Dats.
Make the adjustments and turn it around that's all! A win against the Bucs will be an instant remedy.
