Pure speculation but let’s say Kellen doesn’t pick it up and is gone at least by the start of the playoffs.

Would Flores be the number 1 head coaching candidate as of now?

Think the Saints are far more appealing than most other bad situations. (colts, chargers, jets, dolphins)

Shough, young, a ton of cap space coming. Far more appealing now than post Allen. Maybe we get our pick of the litter.

Won't get a HC job until the lawsuit is settled.

We need to try a defensive coach and stop chasing the ghost of Sean Payton

Dennis Allen doesn’t count towards what I said

We might end up with a good coach, but I doubt we will get “pick of the litter”, lol

Moore is not the problem
Gayle is the biggest problem because she trusted Loomis who fricked up the team while giving himself a huge contract

Here is a nightmare scenario:

Gayle is letting RG run the team and Loomis is just following orders.

RG has the goods on Gayle.

This would mean Shough is likely to be benched and we sign an old/vet QB, just FWIW

But why?

The only really successful recent DC hire is Macdonald and he doesn't grow on trees. And that franchise has a smart/modern GM.

Pretty much all the rest of the successful HC hires come from the offensive side of the ball, and there is a reason for that.

Loomis must not be allowed to pick another losing coach. Time to throw him out with the bathwater.

Gail would love to be the one to "put racial differences aside and bring Kumbaya to everyone"

FYI, It’s a ton of cap space from what we’re used to seeing, but it’s only $28M

As a comparison, Colts are at $61M, chargers @ $70M, Jets @ $87M, Dolphins @ $97M

That would be doing things backwards. Get a good GM that you trust and have him do the coaching search. I don't know if Gayle was giving lip service to the fans by blaming Loomis along with Moore, but if she is serious, getting a good GM is the first order of business.

Outside of last season, defensive coaches have done nothing when it comes to winning postseason awards.

That's a ton in the nfl when you can work the future years like Loomis

Now is the time while Tyler is on a rookie contract.

A good chunk of our future cap will go to Chase Young though

A sarcastic reference to Roger Goodell because she never stands up to him when the Saints get screwed.

I’d call Tomlin and offer him the kitchen sink.
