Not surprising, but it is a bit disappointing.

Makes no sense to me whatsoever.
So they have Vitt as the HC all offseason, then have a different HC when Vitt is suspended, then bring Vitt back after 6 games.
They really needed to have someone not suspended get this role. Kromer or Carmichael.

We will live.

I'm cool with it guess. To be honest, nothing perfect could come out of a situation like this. At least the book is closed on this subject anyways. Hopefully this will run as smooth as can be expected.

I honetsly dont see this as that bad of an idea.
This guy knows this team. He ran things when Sean was out last year and it worked fine. Let Pete and Steve tend to their respective sides and Drew Brees will carry them. Im thinking they are going to make Kromer the interim while Vitt is out. To me this is going to be a bunch of assistants working together with Vitt turning to them and asking their opinion when it comes to big game decisions. Vitt knows Sean's tendencies in game situations. Plus, Vitt will definitely give up the job to Payton again when we win the SB.

I just don't understand that someone that seems incompetent at his job get's a temporary promotion to HC.

Who will coach this season? ----- mark that off the list.
Next:
-Players suspensions.
-Drew's contract.
-Black pants.

I bet the team respects Vitt.

Loomis on why they chose Vitt: "We considered a number of great options to handle Payton's duties both internally and externally, but believe this will provide the most seamless transition for our players and our coaching staff, allowing our offensive and defensive staffs to remain intact with the fewest changes. This is the same structure we used last season during Sean's knee injury."

Well, I would feel better about it if he wasn't going to be suspended for 6 games. Continuity is important for a team. Oh well.

Hopefully this takes away from Vitt's time coaching our new Linebacker group...

Bad call IMO.
I think this is more hubris from Saints leadership.

I have no idea what you're talking about.
3 things:
1. LB coach. The LB position is the worst position on the team. Plus, we have several new Linebackers who will need training.
2. Gonna be suspended a long time. Hurts consistency.
3. Hired by Payton to watch GW. Didn't do that very well, it seems.

Adam Schefter ? @AdamSchefter
Saints' OL coach Aaron Kromer is expected to become New Orleans' interim HC during first six games, while Joe Vitt serves his suspension.
So WTF ARE THEY DOING?
