Fans need to have patience with Moore and the Front Office.
What has done for us lately?
I don't buy into the mindset of "what have you done for me lately." I think it's short sighted and foolish. Everything in the universe, including the performance of us humans, goes through ebb and flow cycles.
Besides, how far back in time does "lately" go? A nanosecond, a second, a minute, an hour, a day, a week, a month, a year, 3 years, 5 years, a decade or even more?
Obviously, he gets credit for Payton but the Allen hire, cap management of a non-contending team are questionable to say the least.
I think Allen was objectively a mistake in hindsight. We wouldn't make mistakes if we could make decisions in hindsight.
I think the cap management being a problem is a matter of opinion and not fact. Cap management only becomes a problem if the Saints can't get or keep the players they want to get or keep.
The key phrase being the players the Saints want, not the players the fans want. What players have the Saints wanted to get or keep that they weren't able to get because of the salary cap?
I don't recall the Saints ever having issues with not having enough cap space to offer a contract to a player that want to get or keep. That's why I don't think the Saints cap management style is a problem.
Loomis has several people above him in the Saints hierarchy, none of them seem to have a problem with Loomis' cap management. So, if Loomis' cap management is a problem, then it's as much a Saints organizational problem as it is a Loomis problem.
