Any decent OC we get will just get poached after a decent year and then we’ll be right back to the same shite again.

I think we should keep him so we can get number one pick.

Great. But I need my HC to be a HC as well

San Francisco did it back to back years and ended up with a coach who had them in the Super Bowl 3 years ago, the NFC Championship game last year, and went 13-4 this year with a 3rd string quarterback.

Keeping Dennis Allen is mindnumbingly stupid. And that he looks like he’s not making a change at OC is even worse.

Guy simply drops his team's win percentage by 20-30% being head coach. Pretty dam consistent.

Ironically he's been worse this year relative to the previous 3 years for NOLA.

Raiders records 3 years before Allen
2011 8-8
2010 8-8
2009 5-11
Overall 21-27 (0.438)

Oakland With Allen
2014 0-4
2013 4-12
2012 4-12
Overall 8-28 (0.222)

He sucks, and simply only dragged down his team's average record

Saints record b3 years before Allen
2021 9-8
2020 12-4
2019 13-3
Overall 34-15 (0.694)

Saints with Allen
2022 7-10 (0.412)

I'm all for him to get axed but I'm not sure Saints have clout to go fire a coach and then get a big name here after shite canning a guy in 1 season.

They have no QB here so the best you could possibly hope for is a young coach that might be a homerun. I doubt any big name is coming this way.

Why not go after a young, offensive guy and let him cut his teeth while we rebuild instead of sticking with what we know in Allen?

If the young guy sucks then we’re in the same position but has a potential to hit the jackpot

Stopped reading here, trading Payton and getting Ryan’s & McDaniels(if fired) could win over 7 games

No way to know this.

What we do know is Allen has never been a winner as HC.

Only good thing I saw was 15 ppg the last 8 games.

As long as you are ok with sucking next few years, which just be the way it has to be but on the way home today I heard more than few season ticket holders say they are done

This is what I’d expect a falcons or bucs fan would tell us.

The only question now regarding DumbArse DA is whether or not he makes it to Week 10 of the upcoming 2023 season.

He is entitled to another year, but Carmichael must be replaced. The Saints need to start the rebuild and part with players such as Peat, Davenport, Thomas, Landry, and others.

Gross. Whatever the win total is give me a direct line to Vegas to bet the under.

Next season already over and this season hasn’t even finished

Don’t worry, the leadership in NO isn’t going to get rid of that dumpster fire anytime soon.
