I don't disagree that DA needs to go, but didn't DA just fulfill your fourth requirement of :
  • A head coach who develops players and has a team playing its best late in the season


I guess you could argue that he didn't do a great job of developing players, although I do think several young players have developed well, i.e. Olave, Rasheed, A.T. Perry, Breese, Yiadom, Howden, but his team was certainly playing their best ball late in the season even if it was against weaker competition. I mean, the competition was weak, but they did play by far their best ball at the end of the season.
In my post you quoted, you cut it off at the line that followed:
Three late wins against the division does not yield any trust from me for the future.
Yes, new young guys on defense played well at times but were no match for Stafford, Goff, and Lawrence, or Jordan Love in the one quarter that killed the season when the Saints were only 2-0.

On offense, when Carr was signed - my take was that he was going to have to play much better than he did as a Raider. But he did not and was not the alpha he had to be. So thank God for Olave and Shahid, but if I'm their agent, I'm not happy right now about their long term future in New Orleans, because the QB is mid-tier and seemingly hit his ceiling years ago.

Loomis says the status quo gets a 2024, so we'll see if DA and the Do Nothings can become something better, or...
