1 Candidate Has “A Lot Of Support” For Saints Job

On Saturday’s edition of SportsCenter, ESPN insider Jeremy Fowler revealed that Saints defensive coordinator Dennis Allen is the favorite to land the job...

quote:
“Dennis Allen is well-positioned here. I know that he has a lot of support in the building because the Saints feel like they’ve had a good thing going and Allen has head-coaching experience,” Fowler said. “He’s been there since 2015. Strong coaching staff, strong defense, good players. For continuity’s sake, that could be the case.”

“I know Eric Bieniemy and Aaron Glenn, the Lions defensive coordinator who was with the Saints staff before, are both well-positioned here. Glenn did interview well from what I heard.”

Why should race be a factor in anything? Hire the best coach, period. NEVER hire anyone based on race, period.

denvertiger•34 months

Out of those 3, that's probably Bieniemy. Allen is a re-tread, though, and the NFL loves what it knows even if it's mediocre. Have to guess he's the front runner.

We need a POC to lead the Saints! 70% of the players are POC….that should be reflected in coaching and ownership as well. Personally I think the league should be 100% POC from the owners to coaches to players and viewers.

Who the fock says POC you closet racist

coonass27•34 months

Surly you are trolling. 70% of the players are because the best players are picked and paid. Not because they are black. Coaching and everything else should be the same

Datbayoubengal•34 months

Love how the dumbasses come out in full force in the south. Happens every time if a coach is black "must be the Rooney Rule, must be SJW"! Before Payton you had a bunch of white coaches who never did shite with the Saints and God forbid if a black guy gets a shot. There were MFers that were against Mike Tomlin being the coach at LSU, Mike freaking Tomlin! Yalls priorities are so out of wack it's disgusting.

Wow. Pay attention folks. This is a proper melt.

coonass27•34 months

Ha. Tonkin wasn’t going to be the coach at lsu. And I guarantee that any problems wouldn’t be becose he’s black

Roll Clyde Roll•34 months

Saints are WOKE.

Roll Clyde Roll•34 months

Come up with a new joke dumb arse

blueboxer1119•34 months

Chocolate city needs a chocolate coach or team will revolt. Resume and success at previous jobs not important. Only skin color.

jmarto1•34 months

At this point I bet the saints would hire Flores

Roll Clyde Roll•34 months

At this point I bet you have a bet you’re gay

PeleofAnalytics•34 months

So you are a homophobe Clyde? Using being gay as an insult? Your seem to pick and choose what you approve of being bigoted about.

HogBalls•34 months

The woke saints will have to hire a POC coach.

Roll Clyde Roll•34 months

You know every team is the league is woke right?

JackieTreehorn•34 months

From the brewers of Faubourg beer, we present Brian Flores, the new SJWHC of the Saints.

lsutigersFTW•34 months

Allen will get you consistent 11-6/13-4 seasons if we can navigate the cap and keep talent level consistent

He would drop lawsuit. Kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Easy peasy.

BlackTiger89•34 months

Eric Bieniemy.. I feel would be a Great fit.. He is use to running a high powered offense, and he knows wat it takes to rebuild our offense while the defense is still strong.

RazzleDazzle•34 months

Zero head coaching qualities

JustinT37•34 months

Saints should hire a SJW — it would fit well with the players CSP filled Benson’s locker room with.

Roll Clyde Roll•34 months

You watch a sport that is majority black people. Get over it pussy

JustinT37•34 months

I don’t watch the NFL or the Saints anymore. I’m just doing a honest troll of the players & team I once rooted for.

Roll Clyde Roll•34 months

I don’t watch the NFL either but you’re not funny. Do you troll burrow who has the same views? Or every other team in the NFL who is filled with SJW’s

Stephen A and Ryan Clark won’t like this.

Bucktail1•34 months

They haven't interviewed 1 decent candidate

blizzle•34 months

They’ve interviewed 3 guys with NFL head coach experience, and another two known up-and-comers. Are you upset they didn’t bring in Bill Belichick and Bill Parcells?

arcalades•34 months

don't bring common sense around here. these people won't ever understand. best just to say stupid stuff; that's what they understand.

Vastmind•34 months

Good Lord. RIP Saints.

thermal9221•34 months

Yeah, none of these names are good. My whole reasoning wanting Allen to stay when Payton was here was that he wasn’t a good hc. Now he might be our hc.
