Cam Jordan: (Ex Saints DL coach) Todd Grantham wasn’t focused on teaching players technique, tweaking form, or development (1 Viewer)

A very detailed and personal read at what Cam went through this season and the obstacles he faced from his coaches -

Cam Jordan Is Ready for Whatever Ride Awaits in His NFL Future

The New Orleans Saints defensive end is not sure where he’s headed, not exactly, and he has many decisions to make in the weeks ahead.

Well worth reading!

Well worth reading!

It puts a lot of what he and other vets on the team were dealing with into perspective…the lack of communication must have been horrible. I want our new coach to be a communicator who can unite the team…not another Dennis Allen 2.0.

Could be true. Could also be mixed in w loads of excuses on behalf of the players for lack of execution and commitment

I can remember when Grantham was mentioned among candidates for the DC job between the Spags and Rob Ryan eras around here. Perhaps Grantham should've stayed in the college ranks.

Someone said the same thing about Bill Johnson. When Ryan Nielsen got hired our line play way better. Hope someone can comes and start teaching techniques again.

Maybe there's hope for Foskey.

That was a good article. It's always good to get locker room insight from a different perspective other than Coach press meetings. I had no idea Cam was on the Special Forces show. What an incredible display of strength.

Cam... Newton?

I know a lot of people hate to hear this. But its utterly disgusting that this was happening underneath DA, and Loomis was defending him. A GM allowing this to go on, I mean that alone shows how out of touch and piss poor of a job Loomis was doing as GM. I know this directly faults Allen, but we fans suspected this was going on for a long time. Loomis allowed it to continue and even defended the head coach who allowed this to happen.

Throw in the cap issues, the lack of warmups to help prevent injury.... I mean what a complete dumpster fire of an organization the saints have turned into. 100% all Allen (and many people on here were excited to continue to roll with him). But Loomis allowed this to happen, and not only did he allow it to happen, he supported it, defended it and wanted it to continue.

That 1000% shows Loomis has to go because he IS NOT doing his job even remotely well.

Cam... Newton?

There were a handful of posters here that had been blasting Grantham for a while. Looks like they were proven right.

 

[Mr. Sparkle]

the DA era was just a waste of 3 seasons all the way around.

 

[OutlawSaint]

What was he doing then? Just spending time on The Hub at practice or what?

He was part of Dennis Allen’s good old boy club. These guys are self deceived
