Pete Carmichael, not Sean Payton, calling plays for*Saints

Euphoria · 09-15-2016, 09:47 AM

There is a huge difference between play calling between the two.

Carm - PASS HAPPY attacking shoot outs.

Sean tries more balanced... using the run game to set some pass plays up.

To me it really doesn't matter if you score 100 points and give up 101 we still lose. So no big deal. until you FIX THE F'in D already.

i found it refreshing not to see as many screen passes now if the would run the ball 25 -30 times a game at stick to it id be thrilled to death

I would say that he is probably not the Savant he is on offense but I'd bet he is pretty darn good on defence too. You don't get that good on offense without a thorough understanding of how a defence works.

Of course there is but he will have had little input on his players. If you were a DC would you have been happy with three if your 4 CB never having played a fown of pro football(with 2 being UDFA)

He is going to be judged on playing 6 weeks with little to nothing at CB

I seem to remember way back when the Saints interviewed an offensive coordinator who knew defense so well that the Saints gave him the DC position.
As I recall that ended poorly.
