Nick Underhill: Saints Might Not Move on from DA

Hedon James said
you're probably right. but I've seen this movie before, several times. I saw it at the end of Mora's tenure. I saw it the entire Ditka tenure. I saw it in Haslett's last season. Some of the Saints lifers can probably add to the list, but I can't speak to that. I came onboard with Mora, Mills, & Vaughn Johnson when the USFL folded and just never left...dunno why....much like "picking a dog at the rescue", I think your team picks you, not the other way around. So I'm not going anwhere. And I have no say. Just flashbacks to the era of the 'Aints, where you hoped for the best and were pleasantly surprised when it actually happened. Considering how long it took for Mora, and then CSP to show up and lift our fortunes, I hope I live long enough for the 3rd dynasty to be discovered. And right now, we're not even looking for it...

Yup, this is where I am as well.....the Benson regime has been mostly good only because they finally found a real, bonifide NFL HC that brought the Saints to greater things.....in almost every instance they held onto a coach for at least a season after it was obvious they weren't the answer (hell, Mora had to quit midseason).....we've made those mistake in the past, hate to see them repeated and it's exactly what we are seeing with retaining DA for a 3rd year.....I so wanted to be wrong about him, he is just not HC material.....if Loomis retains him for another year he is either 1) a delusional ego maniac that is going to prove he is right at any cost or 2) too lazy or unwilling to start over.....the common denominator? At the expense of the greatest fans in the country IMO.....
