Broncos plan to hire Saints IHC Darren Rizzi as their Special Teams Coordinator after Saints HC search process (34 Viewers)

[nakadish]

This is absolutely a huge loss.

Rizzi is the best ST coach in the business.

Why don't the Saints have one of the best special teams in the league?

 

[Madmarsha]

This narrative is getting ridiculous. Mickey gave Sean literally everything he ever wanted and asked for.

Even Skylene?

We can't keep Rizzi if half the team is loyal to him. Just creates an unnecessary tension with a new coach.

I think Sean/Mickey broke up over Drew returning in 2020. Payton had Tom Brady ready to take over. When Brees unretired, Mickey/Gayle should have blocked Brees and told him it's over. By retaining Brees, they setup Payton for disaster and disrespected him. They basically told him they were more loyal to players than the coaches. When that happened, Payton knew he would never win another Super Bowl in New Orleans. It was the day the music died.

This sounds straight from Loomis mouth to Nick's ears lol. Saints have to play it incredibly safe to not get fined or punished by the league so expect more "nothing's official" posts from Nick and others that the team tells them to put out.

Smart btw. Saints need to CYA until the Super Bowl is over.

This is the most "that checks out" thing that has checked out since this hiring cycle started.

Just becaue you can imagine a vivid doomsday scenario, it doesn’t mean it’s true. I just means you’re a conspiracy theorist. None of that is remotely true.

Players?

Moore has all the power in this negotiation now.

No. Let him tell Mickey if he retires then he'll become the the HC. Mickey will laugh, call Kafka and tell Moore, sorry but that position has been filled.

 

[NatureBoy]

Makes me feel stronger in my postion that Moore is #1 and Kafka is the fall back plan.

I know there was a rift in the organization because of this issue.

If the Giants offense would have done better under Kafka, I think he would have been the Saints’ HC choice. His interview I saw and all the reports coming out of the senior bowl are telling me he's going to be a good HC sometime soon

 

[St. Geezy]

Interim coaches don’t go back down to their old position unless it’s a special circumstance like 2012

You’re forgetting about this Saints legend.

 

[Cgrob81]

We are such a "has been" team right now.

 

[Bayouboy]

Just ready to have the new direction finalized. All of this limbo stuff is for the birds.
