Mike Florio bringing the proper perspective to our organization: “Saints are a solid long-term destination for a new coach“

Where I'm hard in Mick, is I'm at a complete loss as to how he looked at Dennis Allen as a good idea for head coach. It just doesn't make any logical sense to me what so ever to be even remotely acceptable to even look his way as a head coach candidate. I'm completely dumb founded how anyone could think it was a good idea. There were so, so many signs slapping everyone in the face of what a horrible, terrible idea it was. Then to defend him the way he did in that presser to give him year 3, i was just in shock. Its so mind boggling to me that part of me wonders if he went into that presser saying to himself "Im gonna show support but this is his last chance". Because if he really, really did mean every word he said in that year 2 presser, then I'm utterly confused at how his logic works.

This is a large part of my concerns. Not just the decision to hire DA, or the bizarre press conference, or even the fact that Gayle had to go around him to fire DA, but everyone seems to have memory-holed him calling a meeting with all the players at the end of the season to tell them to shut up about how bad DA was and to fall in line. It's been like finding out Loomis was a flat earther, and not just to troll people, like he actually believes it. Hard to take him seriously after all that.
