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

Let’s see what direction the team chooses to take and go from there.
Agreed. If they do not want to rebuild but stick with Carr, the cap deficit may be a little easier to manage this year, but take longer to erase. If they want to tear off the bandaid and rebuild, it will be a painful next year or two, but clear the deficit going forward.
