"I want him back," cornerback Keenan Lewis said. "I'm going to ride with him, one hundred. He's a great coordinator. You just can't blame him when things go wrong. We're the ones out there playing."

"Rob will be here," Vaccaro told reporters on Monday via The Times-Picayune

Keep rob, but changes must be made at position coaches.

I'd trade Rob for Greg Williams right now

Is there any possibility of co-defensive coordinators? Rex and Rob Ryan

I give him one more year. We'll see if he's more of the 2013 guy or 2014 guy.

He should be allowed to bring in his own guys for one, Vitt and Johnson are bums.

he had a great year, then a terrible year... next season should tell the tale... we can make a decision after that, IMO....

He should be back. What coordinator could possibly win with the players Rob was forced to play? We can't punish him for doing such an awesome job last year that he made us forget how shitty the personnel actually were. Remember, these are basically the same guys who the year before Ryan made up THE WORST DEFENSE IN NFL HISTORY.

Give this man players so he's not forced to rely on smoke and mirrors defensive alignment because he has no athletes capable of playing straight up. And--yes--shake up the staff at the position coach level and fire whoever was responsible for scouting SJB.

Well if they fire him, then that means that Payton and Loomis made a mistake in hiring him, right? Spags they could let go and still save face for Payton, because he "wasn't there," as an excuse.

Do you think Payton or Loomis is going to openly admit to making a mistake or a wrong decision?

I think he stays. I also think there will be some minor tinkering but I don't see this bloodbath of assistant coaches that many people are clamoring for. Vitt, McMahon, Bill Johnson, Brian Young -- those are Payton's people in there and I just don't see them being easily shaken loose.

He already showed he can have a top 5 defense with this group. I'd give him 1 more year. Payton goes through DCs like an M&M bag so it's time to give someone a chance who already proved himself. Being realistic the offense wasn't helping defense much this year although I do think scheme/coaching was a problem on the DC. I'm conflicted to be honest. Ryan is known for doing this with his defenses everywhere he goes and I seriously questioned his scheme many times this season. Something ain't right when players like KV look good last year and then all of a sudden are total shite.

I'm willing to give him a pass simply because this entire team was infected with a virus and it was a total shite show by every player on the team. I think the bigger problem is higher up but it will not be addressed so it is what it is.
