Raiders game should end Loomis' tenure as GM in the off season (1 Viewer)

[jasonsw]

The same people in this thread saying Loomis needs to go will be advocating for the Saints to continue drafting need in the draft instead of drafting the best player available. This is how you end up with a lack of talent on the team. Stop limiting the draft pool. Build talent in the draft, fill holes in free agency.

Not me I've been long time pounding for offensive weapons since Drew Brees. Response has always been draft linemen. Saints have been doing this for 5 years, it's gotten this team no where.

Gayle stepped up and canned DA when I think most thought she was staying out of it…now let’s see just how far the house cleaning goes.

This whole mess is on him now. The Saints the past two weeks have not fielded an NFL team. Not one person playing today other than a couple O line guys should be even starting a game

Why is it on him now? Why isn't it on the coaching staff? Or, of you prefer, why wasn't it on him until now?

I think many of us are not delusional, we want to see real progress.

The moment Ton Brady retired... The Bucs hit the switch and went to fix their cap and still made the post season.

We dug a deeper hole, and kept ignoring all the red flags between player age and inept head coach. Now, we are looking a probable 7 year playoff drought at minimum.

I've been just waiting patiently

It should. But it won't. I have been critical of Loomis for years. I nearly always have advocated for drafting the best player for your system. However, we have reached a stage where drafting for need and drafting the best player are practically the same thing because this team has so many needs.

Mickey Loomis: we have to look beyond the 12 losses.

I don’t understand this answer.

I don’t understand this answer.

Well two weeks ago it was hard to.make the case to can Loomis. But seeing the bottom end result these two weeks and what will happen next week makes this very much justified.

Or better analogy it's like someone using a lighter, can't yell fire until that person sets something on fire. Until then that person is just flicking a lighter

 

[Hadders]

Well Loomis repeatedly obliged when many shouted "Make it Happen" .
People with more Salary Cap knowledge than me said it was all okay even though not many other teams appeared to be doing it.
Fast forward to now and ......

And what's the over-under for how long after the season it will be before Loomis or someone else representing the organization has a meaningful press conference?

Had Loomis been doing his weekly “coaches” show on WWL?

Mickey Loomis: we have to look beyond the 12 losses.

lol, that sounds about right. Right before he says “look, I think we have a talented roster and we have a really good staff”.

Probably so. Dude thinks he's Jerry Jones.
