Looks like it’s official: Hurst to start at LT

The Saints offensive line is expected to have a new look today... James Hurst expected to replace Trevor Penning at left tackle for Saints against Texans

Peat playing, I guess.
If it works, I'm fine with it. Allen and Pete are coaching for their jobs... they don't have the luxury of allowing development

This could be a " so you just don't want to take coaching you think you are that good eh?" "Well we have a spot for those guys Mr Penning"

This basically means we given up on Penning. His confidence will take a huge hit and they better be right on this one. If they frick it up, its going to look disastrous.

We have a spot for a head coach who trades up to draft you in the first round and then benches your arse in his second season as a starter as well. What a monumental mistake by DA in so many ways.

Well it goes completely against the “he needs reps” idea. And honestly I think he’s been playing a lot better. This is just dumb.

If it works great but I’d preferred to see Penning work through adversity.
He had been making improvements.

How is this a mistake? Dude is a turnstile every game. Cut your losses and move on.

Penning is 24 and has the athletic profile of an all-pro LT. If you’re cutting your losses after less than 2 seasons, that’s trash coaching and development and evaluation.

Except you traded up for him in the first round and in his first season as starter you bench him. Even if the oline plays better, Hurst is not a long term answer. You can cut your losses but if this backfires and season isn’t as great maybe Gayle should cut her losses with DA as well.

No. It doesn't but drama on. Not everyone is a starter right away. 24 years old with 7 starts

Investing 2 FRP's says he should period.

You do realize we’re benching him in his first season as starter??? This will completely frick up his development and confidence. This isn’t drama its the NFL. If you dont realize what this does to a player you’re a moron.

So Penning has a couple bad games (even though he is improving), he's benched.

Carmichael is a garbage arse OC who does nothing for 15 years, his job is still safe as frick?
fricking stupid.

Oh I see. He's a snowflake. Dipsh!t.

We need a new OL coach. How many first rounds “busts” can you have? We have a ton of draft capital on that line and it fricking sucks.

Careful you will make Mama (yaz) Penning cry 
Posted on 10/15/23 at 9:28 am to goatmilker
Lol I love how you think Penning will bounce back from this and be fine. Like no big deal. This isn’t pee wee football man. Imagine getting demoted at your job and tell yourself yeah no big deal I’m young I’ll be fine. These are adults and professionals, this benching is embarrassing and a gut punch to the player. Frankly, a dumb decision by DA.
Posted on 10/15/23 at 9:28 am to LSUZombie
This is such an idiotic move. You bench your 1st round LT that is still basically a rookie on the field after a few games? Everyone who has influence in this decision needs to be benched themselves. You have to at least give the kid a real chance to get better before screwing his confidence. Nice job Saints! Idiots.
