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

Dude won a SB with AR. Rodgers hasn't done much since MM left GB. And he led Cowboys to 3 consecutive 12-5 seasons, won one playoff game and did most of that with Dak at QB when they were top 5 offense those 3 seasons.

He's got all kinds of positives. Can't help you if you refuse to see it.

Note that he had to go 4-1 with Cooper Rush to get to 12 wins in 2022.

Not sure why anyone would be "against" us hiring McCarthy other than maybe McCarthy himself. 2025 Saints and possibly the 2026 Saints are likely to damage his career W/L %. Getting us to or even a game above .500 would be quite an achievement. My hope, if he gets the job is that he changes our "win-now" philosophy into a 3-year plan aimed at long term success. Hopefully that's his mindset and that his "skins on the wall" are enough to make Loomis willing to give him free reign to do so.
