Nick Underhill: Players organizing a Players-Only Meeting (2 Viewers)

Loomis has his faults, but his only real major flaw is not yet firing DA.

So he could hire a new "Yes Man" to take his place? Firing DA won't fix our lack of depth, our wasted draft classes, or our insane cap management style. Sure we'll get a new "Yes Man" to take his place, probably will be more of a players coach but the rot eating the Saints from the inside will still be there.

If we had real leadership throughout and above him it would be his fatal (employment wise) flaw.

The problem isn't just the head coach.

That may be true, but he is supposed to be the leader, the rock, and the glue. The shortcomings fall at his feet. It should start with him

Dennis Allen: We all understand it’s a results-oriented business and we need to play better

The Saints started the season 2-0 with blowout victories over the Panthers and Cowboys.

Oh it’s a results oriented business? That’s funny because the GM just told us that it wasn’t!

Cancun on 3

You mean “Cancun on (week) 3!”

What the hell are you talking about?

People just make up sheet they think is true and then post it. DA isn't Loomis' yes man, he's a bad football coach. It has nothing to do with Loomis controlling him.

Our depth is bad due to bad drafts and that is the fault of the scouting staff and Ireland. But frankly, that has gotten better the last year or so and it's not really so much that we don't have depth, it's that the coaching is bad and the depth we have are not prepared to play.

So.

For what?

When the ship is sinking, of course you want the ship’s crew rearranging the deck chairs and not figuring out why the captain is playing bumper cars with the icebergs.

We're old, oft-injured, always on the wrong side of probability-busting events, heavily penalized, and can't tackle, but we make up for ALLLLLLL of that by being poorly coached.

It could be a players only meeting, a coaches only meeting, an owners only meeting, a Justice League or Avengers only meeting. This team is a poor man's Washington Generals. And every week, Curly and Meadowlark Lemon hit trick shots on us and run us out of the gym after pulling our shorts down.

So.

For what?

Yeah I can't imagine this will make an iota of difference. No one on this team is making plays so it would be pretty hard for anyone to hold anyone else accountable.

Players only meetings always lead to the coach getting canned.

Mickey - Challenged accepted!!!

Is the players only meeting to discuss how to tank without it looking like we are tanking? We are in desperate need of top five picks each round. Personally, I'm on Travis Hunter watch. I have no interest in watching this roster limp to 8-9/7-10.

A players only meeting means we are cooked basically. If being a grown man making 6 figures doesn't motivate you to do your job, who in the hell wants to listen to another millionaire high horse them? This s... is over. Time to blow it up and bring in coaches who are in charge like CSP used to be. Youd think a defensive coordinator would walk with a big stick. DA is way too passive to lead an aggressive dog pack.

Another slight, smallish WR? Pass. Give me the Mike Evans clone in Tetairoa McMillan.

Not always…it didn’t last year
