Nick Underhill: Saints Might Not Move on from DA (1 Viewer)

Mickey needs a scapegoat, of course he's not going anywhere. As long as peopole think it's DA, Mickey gets a free ride.

Easy enough, golf on Sundays

I swear I'm out (until DA is gone) next year if this dude is back.

T-Bob---"There ain't no frickin' way..." When Nick was talking about not making a change with DA as coach.

ML is never gonna fix the cap situatiin to begin with. The Only way that ever gets fixed is if we rid of HIM.

Sorry, but that's the way I see it.

This. Let's say ML gets rid of DA. Think about what that would mean for ML. ML knows that we are going to be a bad team for at least 2 more years after this season. If he were to get rid of DA, that would mean that ML starts catching all the bullets. By keeping DA around, ML gets to deflect most of the blame. Truth is that ML should be shouldering most of the blame already. DA is a human shield for ML and every year DA stays is a year for Loomis to hide from the truth.

All I care about is tanking for Arch 2026, and DA is the best coach to ensure losing.

Arch is going to one of the LA teams.

Loomis is going to have to do his best used car salesman impression to sell fans on DA for another year. Baring a major win streak I don't see how it's possible.

 

[LiterOCola]

Loomis is an unserious man.

I’d expect “winning football games” to be somewhere on the list of priorities for someone that is running a football team.

I want to know what Dennis Allen has done, for someone who is now the third worst coach in NFL history when compared to other coaches that have coached at least as many games as he has, to deserve the amount of grace he has been given.

We waiting for Allen to become the worst before doing anything?

 

[AustSaint]

If Loomis wants to seriously destroy fan interest and any goodwill that he might still have then this would be the move I have watched the Saints tread water under DA, get embarrassed on numerous occasions and show a lack of fight in games. The last game of last year when they ran into the touchdown to get Jamaal Williams his touchdown against DA's wishes and then having DA apologise was more proof of his total lack of suitability to be a head coach. He lacks charisma, he doesn't sell hope, he takes it away. #FireDennisAllen

The difference between a winner and a loser.

DA doesnt have a killer instinct.

DA is timid, and that's why deep down his players do not respect him.

He is weak.

I rthink DA was hired to be an "interim" coach until cap is fixed. Just playing with overthecap.com, June 1 could give us a lot of relief if Cam, DD, and honey badger retire.

Saints franchise wants Manning.. it's a storybook dream for this city.

Given that we have made no real moves to rectify the cap situation and have continued kicking the can down the road, this theory makes zero sense.

DA will always be compared to Payton, a different coach will be compared to DA. Loomis always said it would take 4-5 years to get to the middle of the pack cap wise. I think DA was hired because it was easier to sell him on it than someone from the outside.

 

[Paper Bags]

If we finish poorly enough to get a great draft pick, I feel sorry for the player we draft if DA is still our HC.
