re: Let's Have Us a Poll

No, fire Loomis and Allen. Get a real gm.

You can bring in any coach not named BB and they'll still struggle. Personnel decisions for 4 years have crippled this team, that's on the gm. We need a respected DC too. Not some joke. We need a Mike Nolan or wade Phillips to take over, someone who knows his personnel limitations and adjusts. Week 1 was dumb with Harris on Diggs and lattimore in zone. Week 2 was atrocious with everything else.

Right now? No. Because I do not see a better option. Finish the year out, and if its another 7-9 season, or even worse, which is possible, then make the move.


Loomis? Gtfo. I also believe this team desperately needs ownership, because they basically don't have it right now. Benson is so old and clueless.

Firing Sean today does nothing to advance the franchise or assist in long term goals of improving the team. It is a half measure at best.

Drew Brees with Joe Vitt as HC won 7 games in 2012.

Unless you are willing to bench Drew till he rescinds his no trade clause it doesn't do you much good to fire Sean.

Drew is still more than capable on his own merit of playing us out of a beneficial draft position.

If you are going to blow the team up, you need to fully commit. I don't think the organization is willing to do that.

Sean and Drew will be allowed to finish the season and everything will be addressed in the offseason most likely.

Loyalty to the past will bite this organization one more time. Your only option right now as a fan is to hope we catch lightning in a bottle and at least make the season interesting.

They need to fire loomis and create some type of legitimate hierarchy

This above all else needs to happen. I just don't see how it could.

I've been wanting to fire him since 2014, why should today be any different

I will hold off on saying that I think he needs to go NOW because I'm not sure if firing a coach mid season does any good for the long run.

But I will say this... CSP's own stubbornness will be his undoing, just like it was for Miles. His inability to win games more than one way is glaring... defenses seem to have caught up with our strategy offensively and he refuses to adjust his scheme/playcalling accordingly.. our defense is abysmal, everyone knows that, yet he does absolutely nothing to shorten the game and minimalize the amount of possesions the other team gets.. we have three very different, yet very capable running backs and outside of MT, ZERO depth at the WR position. Yet we still throw the ball what seems like 85% of the time. Our playcalling is way too predictable

I know this place has pretty much been burned to the ground since week 1, but honestly, I don't think we are too far off from being competitive. I just think he needs an offensive reboot, but I'm not sure we will see it happen..

Also, drew is playing fine. Any blame that goes towards him for the first two weeks in unwarranted and unfair IMO



ETA2 - Purely a hypothetical - CSP isn't the problem... what if he leaves and lights it up somewheres else and our problem the whole time was at the very top of the organization (loomis, benson, etc)...

seems like just weeks ago, this board invented the verb 'loomising' and was constantly singing his praises..

Loomis fricking blows too, but CSP favoring friends and players is/was a huge problem. And SP has a tremendous amount of input on personnel

I'm sorry, but the GM is the coach's boss. After so many failed player signings that put us in such a shitty spot, he should have put his foot down

Yes.

Firing him now would probably hurt the team but it isn't like they are going to make the playoffs anyway.
