I think DA is Getting Year 4

I never said the roster was stacked, I said its dumb to try and blame it all on SP. Loomis was the GM, the entire front office has as much if not more blame for the state of the roster, trying to scape goat SP is lame in my opinion.

If the roster was so bad in 22, why did the Saints go all in, instead of starting the rebuild then. Why did we sign Carr to a massive contract. The first two years of DA was the Saints organization thinking they had the talent and the coaching staff to make the playoffs and they where wrong.

Now we have some Saints fans doing weird revisionist history. Blaming SP for the Saints current problems is insane. Loomis made the choice to stick with DA and invest in Carr and has not worked, got nothing to do with SP.

Look if you like DA as the coach of the Saints, that's fine, but lets not pretend like he underperformed as coach over the last two seasons.

The reason some of us are thinking what we do is because the first year post CSP was mired in injury. Our QB1 got broken early and often. We went through backups and had no real WR1.

The narrative that the team thought they had talent to win now is likely true, but injuries hamper that and a lack of cap space and draft picks that are absolutely unrelated to anything DA ever did compounded those sometimes manageable issues.

Going into year 2, we were still henpecked by a lack of cap space, but still made a huge splash bringing in a new QB. Injuries and youth on the OL got him killed and hurt. Now, I'm not sure why they didn't go to JW when Carr was playing without a shoulder, but they didn't and here we are.

The D was solid. THe O improved, but still we had no real money available to play with in the offseason so small moves and drafts are the avenue for improvement. There's really no other way.
