Saints planned to interview Mike McCarthy; McCarthy didn’t garner enough interest from Saints and will take a year off

So, if I understand you correctly, you want a hot, fit guy to be coach? A guy who excites you to look at and who intrigues you with his firey personality and devil-may-care attitude?

Yes, I'll take the 2006 Sean Payton prototype, which compares to the best young coaches in the game today and totally fits the Saints current entropic culture. Get me a fresh young mind, hungry to win and earn.

Mike is a lazy and safe hire from yesteryear. How does he relate to and inspire the young players today for a shared mission? How is he in any way a culture fit? He's got the same befuddled body language as Dennis, who was a skinny retread.
