Didn't Josina Anderson:report something about the Saints recently that wasn't even close to accurate?

Don’t know if this is true. Just look at coaches Griff has been allowed to go through with the Pels.

Seems to be implying that some people maybe whispering to her that your FO is FU'd.

When you use anonymous sources, you can just make stuff up with no repercussions

Not unless you take one for the team and kill him.

Someone in that organization just needs to threaten to force Loomis to actually draft a top notch QB in the 1st rd. That would probably make Loomis step down as GM. Loomis hates 1st rd QBs.

Pretty sure she was one of those ESPN reporters that was "accused" of using other people's articles as anonymous league sources, even when those articles are opinion pieces or "this team should do this..." wish list articles

Duncan was giving an interview last week and basically said Loomis won't be fired and he's not stepping aside until he feels like he's righted the ship....soooooooo not great...


So he’s not leaving any time soon.

I don’t know if this title is correct. Sounds like McCarthy demands some level of control as HC and people are talking smack about the power structure of the Saints organization.

Either way, none of this is good.

Yeah, or she asked some other owners for advice on operations.

I saw McCarthy uses near league low motion and play action. Maybe we don’t want to go down that road again

Mickey is the reason the cap situation is where it is.

Mickey is partially a reason no good coach wants to come here.

Mickey is the reason we hire and retained Allen.

Mickey is the common denominator of the saints issues.

Gayle is fricking oblivious

It means that the league likely recommends she hires someone that doesn’t completely strap their team with the salary cap.

To me it reads like it means that Gayle is getting calls from other owners telling her to cut ties with Mickey. I could be wrong, but that's how it reads. Josina is trying not to nuke Mickey from orbit and is holding back saying that explicitly.


That's how I read it to. Clear enough to get the point across but vague enough to not seriously injure Loomis.

I’ll summarize where the author can’t if he wants continued press credentials:

Gayle has no clue where to turn and is dumber than a box of rocks.

Sell the team.

It means Gayle has to cut Loomis. League sees him as. problem in attracting coaches. Hire MM as GM and let him get a head coach.
