Rizzi is a good special teams coach but I have my doubts about the decision makers just like the guy you're talking about in the Op


Is he ? I would think he’d have some say so in personnel. They picked the wrong kicker and looks like we still haven’t replaced Morestrad who’s outperformed his replacements since leaving.

Trust me then with Lutz at Kicker last season, the Saints record wouldn't have been any better.

I feel like the punter did well pinning teams inside the 20 at a high rate but that also means your offense left food on their plate. But oh, they finished Top 10 in total offense!

What makes you think he didn't have a say? and just because you don't like the picks doesn't mean they made a mistake.

Don't tell me you think that because the Saints signed a NFL-E pathway program kid who's been kicking an NFL football for a whole year that that's a sign that they have no confidence in Grupe to continue to develop. It would have been more telling if they signed a veteran kicker to compete with him. Smyth isn't taking anyone's job, the Saints are doing the NFL shield business thing by signing this kid and showing the NFL Pathway program is a success. Ohhh but it's a 3 year contract... .blah blah... none of which appears to be guaranteed.
