All I know is this. There were 2 times in its Saints history, were the Saints fielded an elite unit for a good many years. The Mora's Dome Patrol defense, and the Sean/Drew offense. We didn't win all the time, but we genuinely scared teams. We were the best on one side of the ball or another. Those were fun times. We had swagger, we were on tv a lot and looked good.
I don't see that happening here. A coach either gets buy in from the team, or he doesn't.
Some thing Loomis fails tell you is Chuck Knol, Belicheck, Tom Landry..................weren't handed a (play off) rosters like ours.
