Eh if we are pipe dreaming, Id rather it be AR12.

He's done, hard pass.

 

[ANKOMA33]

He's going back to DC when SP is back.

Honestly, I don't see Dennis doing that.

Once he's done as HC of the Saints, he moves on.

No one is going to pay a over gruden price tag which is the worth.

3 1sts

SP and TB12.. better get use to it.

I'd prefer to be done with him. He was competent. The run defense was stout. But he never shone in the big moments when the stop were needed.

He never got the critical game winning stop when stakes were highest...

It would be so illuminating, if we knew who was making the decisions on QBs and play calling................DA or Pete? I don't know what they are trying to run, but this isn't even Sean's offense anymore.

This team is really starting to look like a team, that was tethered with a very loose leadership and chain of command. Leaving each coach and player to check himself. That may have worked under Sean, after setting the discipline in the first half of his stint here. He earned it. He reaped the benefits of that type of command later in his time here. But....DA isn't Sean.

With great hubris and arrogance DA thought he could do the same in his 1st season. Why not. We had playoff aspirations. This would explain how a talented team like ours is losing games we should win. Because DA has a poor leadership skill set. The man is a personality black hole. I think this is how we found ourselves here.
The Saints have to see they passed on some very good coaches to get to DA. DA Hasn't articulated anything about what we are trying to do on offense or defense. The knock on him at the Raider's was he lacked the interpersonal relationship with players and coaches to work at that level. Leadership???
The most puzzling thing about this season is the utter silence of players about DA, for or against. No one, no one has any stories about DA......nothing?

Jameis said some innocuous things about how the QB situation went down and some people here ripped him for talking about it to NOF.

 

[ATLien]

Wow. Most of these replies didn't age well. LOL!

That was the first sign for me there was real trouble.

Jameis is a captain. He’s also a QB (generally, QBs only speak on specific days and it’s usually only the starter speaking to the group) and he’s also someone who has kept stuff very close to the vest.

We already saw the team was a mess on the field. But Jameis speaking to Trip 1-on-1 on the record on a Friday night was a bad sign for DA.

It's amazing how many people bought Loomis' Kool Aide on Allen. I went back to the first page, and 90 percent of replies ignored her; just like people claim his record in Oakland didn't matter.

We did not realize he was a hard head. It was a gamble. She was right.

Well, also the fact that Jameis never once spoke to the media when Arians was throwing him under the bus weekly.

 

[VPCajun]

Yeah, I thought that it was him sort of acknowledging that he wasn't fully prepared to be a head coach back in 2012 and that he's learned a lot through his experience in the time since.

So, when is he going to put that into action???

I had some very wrong opinions that got a lot of likes at the beginning of this thread LOL.. seems pretty clear now DA just is who he is which is not a head coach.

 

[Zztop]

Should we revisit this topic?

 

[SRAddict]

DA is an elite DC, but not HC material. Watch him go become a DC on another team and beat our team in the future.

And the same people who talked down to us about how Allen is a good coach and undoubtedly deserved another year as HC. Look how that turned out.
