Saints to interview Aaron Glenn on Jan. 10th [Nick Underhill: Glenn probably gets an in person 2nd interview in a couple of weeks]

[St. Widge]

I'm glad to see people coming around on Glenn. He has the best resume of all of the coordinator candidates:

*Great player (not necessary but nice).
*Worked as a scout before coaching.
*Key cog in rebuilding a hapless defense in NO. Defense got better every year he was here.
*Defense fell off of a cliff after he left.
*Key cog in rebuilding entire franchise in Detroit. Defense got better every year he has been there.
*Comes from a program that has been preparing guys to be head coaches on a weekly basis.

He's my guy and I hope he brings Ray Agnew and Tanner Engstrand with him.

Honestly, if Glenn was an offensive coach, I would have been all-in on Glenn from the start. I still like the idea of an offensive coach, but in the end I just want the best coach possible and Glenn is a culture builder and motivator. Although I guess Glenn would end my dream of a switch to a 3-4 hybrid defense. Although he runs the 4-3 in Detroit, he apparently came up as a 3-4 guy, so I guess I can still dream.

Who knows how that could go? DA played odd fronts with Von Miller and Mack when he was away from the Saints and then seemingly forgot how to do that. Glenn is mixing in a bunch of different looks with the MASH unit he's running with now. Draft the best players and figure it out.

Carousels turn and butter is churned, actually, but there I go again being an old man

Glenn spent the bulk of his playing career with the Jets and coached with the Saints, so it stands to reason that he's tied to both right now.

The Jets stink and that kill all ties , we just kinda stink so we have a better shot. Unless they make us play each other for him then he will probably turn us both down .

Surprised some would be down on Glenn. Dude was both a player and assistant coach for this franchise. Any HC coming here is gonna have a tough row to hoe so might as well get someone with some Saints linage.

I want a coach who wants to work w/ Rattler. QB is most important role in team and for Saints fans in general it’s the one exciting spot on the roster because if the unknown.

Loomis would be wise to lean into that as he repairs his PR w/ the city. If Rattler is nothing else he’ll be Aaron Brooks.

[BoxerJoe]

Chris Spielman, currently in the front office with the Lions, will be interviewing for the Jets GM job. That could potentially have an impact on Glenn's decision.

So I have had a change of heart…. He sounds exactly like me scolding one of my boys for repeatedly making idiotic and completely avoidable bad decisions…

I am now on team Glenn…

Ok, I’m starting to warm up to the idea of Glenn the more I listen to interviews with him.

Anyone that watches AG miked up or his pressers can see that he and DA are MILES apart as coaches go

Yep. You won’t have to worry about seeing players that have made mistakes going back to the sideline without being confronted by the boss, that’s for sure.

That's just some mess that a few among the fanbase made up.
