Here’s what I have learned in the divisional games… The HC only matters a little bit. (34 Viewers)

[Saint Taysom]

Johnson, Brady, Kingsburry, etc… it only matters a little bit! Even CSP was only thought to be great because he had a great QB (Drew Brees) and an assortment of good skill players, like Reggie Bush!

It won’t matter even a little bit who the Saints hire as HC because that poor SoB will have Derek Carr at QB and a lackluster collection of has-beens, never-were’s, and injury prone wastes at his disposal!

It’s nothing but a recipe for disaster and disappointment!

Teams need a QB that can run the ball… and pass.

Saints have almost neither… and their guy gets hurt EVERY YEAR!

It’s hopeless folks.

Ok.

Yafr

The rebuild is going to take a lot longer than people are expecting. Washington was drafting in the top 10 for probably the last 20 years and finally hit the lottery this year. I don't see how we find the next generational QB talent with our first or second attempts.

I am grateful for what we had over the past 20 years.

Yes, QB is by far the most important position on the team, and to win the Super Bowl you need an above average, two dimensional QB, but it’s not hopeless. A great HC who can evaluate talent, motivate, and make good decisions can find a way to get a team into position to succeed and find the right QB.

Yes, it only matters a little bit...as long as we've got Loomis.

I agree. The days of guys like Brad Johnson and Trent Dilfer, leading teams to the title are gone.

You need a dynamic, multi-faceted QB to go deep in the playoffs now.

Nonsense. HC is the most important position on the field and the sideline. This has been proven for ages across all sports.

I think the OP is saying that the coach can only take you so far if you don't have an elite QB. Just look at Pitt, they can't get past the first round despite the greatness of Tomlin. I think we are starting to forget how great Drew in his prime was.

Yea at my age I will be lucky to see another Saints Championship. I agree I am grateful for the past 20 years and that's why I will never bad mouth former coaches and players that were instrumental in bringing that to us.

I won't lie, I want a HC with this face that can be a HC.

Nick Foles taking the Eagles to the Super Bowl and getting the MVP was only in 2018.

 

[ELLIASJWILLIAMS]

A team can be turned around w/ right HC and right QB. It’s a simple but difficult equation

 

[showtimesaints]

Maybe it’s what Mickey thought when he hired DA?
