Re: Is fifth defensive coordinator the charm for Saints' Sean Payton?
What's amazing to me still is the first season, the Saints went all the way to the NFC conference championship game against the Bears...
We had a thin roster, no depth; we had Gary Gibbs as defensive coordinator; it was a new team learning new schemes... It really comes down to the coaches, their schemes, ability to command men and execute the plan... We weren't that talented (and got exposed in the NFC Championship Game against the Bears) and yet there was a great deal of success... Dennis Allen was the Asst Defensive Line Coach to Marion Hobby (who's the Clemson co-defensive coordinator and defensive end coach)... John Morton, who's since returned as well, was our Passing Game coach and assistant to Curtis Johnson the receivers coach, is now Wide Receivers coach... So Payton is getting back to what worked in all sorts of ways... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
