Black Monday
Monday will be ugly.
RR is gone. My prediction, first time I felt it deep and it will happen. And RR is not alone.... |
Re: Black Monday
Doubt it...

Im willing to bet nothing changes...
If that's the case ill be done with the Saints until Payton is gone too. This team in it's current state is disgusting to watch. |
Re: Black Monday
I agree Maggie. Several will be fired.
|
Re: Black Monday
I'm agnostic about anyone being sacked. What I do know is this: This team was blown up in the off season. The players changed, the coaches stayed the same.
|
Re: Black Monday
More firing --
Fisher Head Coach OC Green Bay Packer's Peyton Manning - benched is equal to firing. |
Re: Black Monday
Hope Rob is doing his last drinking at Miss Mae's monday

Re: Black Monday
The problem is that during the season you can only fire so many coaches....so who goes? Ryan? Cool....but that's not going to change much...this team is slow on defense....or maybe it's just was Shanle said....No hustle and no drive....they don't have any leaders...
|
Re: Black Monday
Look at how many have been canned since season started....Detroit, Miami, Tennessee.
Chuck Pagano is gone after Colts lose first game after bye. |
Re: Black Monday
Their technique is horrible....it looked like the D gave up completely after the 2nd TD.
|
Re: Black Monday
There has been quite a few mid season firings but unless it's a head coach not too much will change. The entire defensive staff needs to be fired and the new DC needs to be able to bring his own coaches in....
He should also have the ability to bring in players to fit the scheme he wants to run but since we are in salary cap hell for the next two years I don't expect too much with all these misfits on defense. |

Darryl Johnston (I can't stand any of the color "analysts" in any broadcast, anymore) was praising and slobbering all over the Redskins for what a great job they were doing in blocking. But the reality is our entire defense was back pedaling. There are certain guys whose job is to hold the edges and force the receiver to re-route. Then the rest of the guys have to be able to shoot the gaps and make tackles. It's no different than the principles of stopping the run. But when there's a screen pass, the entire defense just stands there thinking someone else is going to make the tackle. And when they realize that they've lost position they start back pedaling as the entire offensive line is in the secondary by this time. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that once you start moving backwards you have no chance of maintaining any balance to shed blocks. The o-linemen just play a little two hand touch, and all our defenders are on the ground. Basic technique discipline. This team doesn't have it. |
Re: Black Monday
Something is gonna happen. I know that. It seemed like Payton lost the game on purpose.

What does he even talk about during halftime? "What did y'all do last night?...can y'all believe they have almost 400 yards on us already?" I mean, seriously? |
Re: Black Monday
I felt we should have dumped RR before the season. Look at his coaching track record in the NFL. He starts out well with his new job, well ranked defenses. Then second year on, he banks on players who get hurt. The rest of his tenure he has loads of injured players, undisciplined teams, until he gets fired. Why wait? Should have canned him already.

Re: Black Monday
He'll be gone by morning.

Mind you, I'm not excusing the players for their lack of energy and effort on many occasions. But Rob is heading this thing and has been here too long for this kind of crap to be happening. |
Re: Black Monday
But when you lack basic technique and discipline, that shows that your coordinator is not doing his job
Yup its time to go. |

But RR is the one at the top that puts those players in positions to succeed/fail. He organizes that defense...maybe? I honestly have no idea if you could call 130 points given up in 3 games an 'organized' NFL defense... |

However, if this is the case, if intentional or subliminal, I call for releasing SP. We are broken. The NFL is broken. |
Re: Black Monday
In Fantasy, I picked up a new TE.
This is when it hit home, I picked the player because MY SAINTS give up points to TE's. That was my moment of truth. Now, how many other NFL fans are enduring this conversation with their teams? And WHAT IS KEVIN GREENE doing these days (since he left GRB coaching staff / Dom Capers)? |
Re: Black Monday
Just about every NOLA reporter I follow say that sources tell Fox Sports that Rob Ryan to be fired today. Hate to see someone loose their job but it's been time to part ways
|
Re: Black Monday
I don't like laying all this at Rob Ryan's feet - to do so is a mistake...
Problem is still in-house with the organization... We stated we were changing personnel, base front and after drafting: NT John Jenkins (Two picks to get him) OLB Ronald Powell (Drafted, since released) OLB Parys Halralson (Signed, Tried to convert him to DE, should have saved the trouble and just cut him) OLB Stephone Anthony (Drafted, Prototype 3-4 ILB, Outstanding Player, Got him running sideline-to-sideline as a 4-3 MLB) OLB Hau'oli Kikaha (Drafted, Outstanding Player, Looked Even Better in 3-4 front in preseason) LB Dannel Ellerbe (Signed, Best years were in a 3-4 front) So WTF did we switch back to a 4-3 this season?!? Rob Ryan was brought in to install a 3-4 and yet we have a NT lose 50+ pounds (Jenkins) to play a 3-tech?!? Why did we sign Williams, who, at his age should be standing off the edge as a 3-4 DE/DT and we're counting on him as a pass rusher?!? Defensive Decisions by committee are why we are where we are on defense and this team is sucking big time... Only reason why I want to see Ryan go is so we can see the problem will still be there and they'll be no hiding it... Entire Defensive Staff must go, though I'd give the secondary another shot because you can't expect them to cover with no, none, pass rush... Unless, of course, they recommended signing Browner, then they'd have to go with the other kids... |

Re: Black Monday
Problems can't be fixed until Allen, Vitt and Johnson are gone. It's time for Payton's buddies to go and get some real coaching in here

Re: Black Monday
The lady stocking shelves at the grocery store just told me that RR won't be here next week. So, there's that.

If anyone thinks this is all Rob Ryan for this historically terrible defense, I think it's the "can't see the forest for the trees" syndrome. Sometimes we get so focused on Ryan that we forget everything that led up to this point. |

Well that's not going to happen, so get over it. Payton needs those yes men in the future. He's not going to be with us forever. |
