Loomis: Next Saints Head Coach will decide their own staff and direction at Quarterback

It's clearly an option they are considering since Loomis said the next HC would have a large amount of input on who the QB would be. If they hadn't considered cutting Carr as a possibility, he would not have said that.
A coach is not going to risk throwing away a year of team development because he doesn't want to pay Carr 30 mil. When Carr gets restructured, just remember there really wasn't any other option. Even as adamant as Tripplet is about cutting Carr he'll even admit that keeping Carr is probably whats going to happen. I'm just trying to let you know that it will happen, so be prepared.
