Saints to interview Mike McCarthy in middle of this week, 1/26-2/1 per Pelissero [Underhill: McCarthy would have to be the current favorite]

I think you share the sentiment of the majority of us. It’s not that McCarthy is “bad”, but he has had almost 20 years worth of opportunities with much better situations and largely underachieved.

I would hope that most of us can agree that Rodgers and Dak are better QBs than Carr. I would hope we all agree that Dallas’ young/prime talent on defense is much better than our aging talent on defense.

I just don’t know why we would think he can accomplish more in New Orleans than he did in GB/Dallas, and he’s only won 1 playoff game in his entire tenure as the Cowboys HC. It seems like settling to hire McCarthy.

So hire someone only 36 years old with absolutely Zero experience, sounds a bit wreckless wouldn’t you say?

The Saints will still require an elite QB1 regardless who the coach is going forward. I like my chances with MM plus an elite Qb compared to the other options. ( Rattler may develop into an elite Qb, or we draft say Howard or similar or trade up for Ward, or find the FA that’s ready to step up).
