Should we fire RR?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Rob Ryan has never been a good teacher and always relies on his position coaches to do that part. His teams in Dallas were bad tacklers as well....

Tackling has been a problem not only with Ryan being here that problem goes way back. I blame that simple problem on all them not teaching fundamental football.

I feel like it is an attitude, what do you think? Like you're either nasty or you're not??

Our best year tackling in recent memory was 2013, which coincidentally was the year our defense finished 4th.

I'm thinking there may be a connection there.

Know what I noticed one game watching Seattle? They almost always make a tackle immediately after the guy catches the ball. No free yards. You earn everything against them.

I can't figure it out, we looked like a top 10 D during pre-season just to fail miserably during the season, they had me drinking the kool-aid by the gallon.

And in the offseason someone came up with a brilliant idea that we should change our tackling technique. Spend entire TC "forcing turnovers" and the final result is this 2014 garbage.

That was Sean Payton's direction, can't blame Rob for that change.

Yes. I was thinking the same. I think that Sean has too much power regarding defense.

Pretty sure the idea in the offseason was to find a way to create turnovers since we really hadn't the year before. How does that turn into SP instructed the defense to strip the ball and forget to tackle?

I didn't see a lot of trying to knock the ball out anyway, I saw people out of position and/or taking bad angles. ****ing SP for the defense blowing dick, GTFOH with your agenda.
