Breaking! Saints fired Dennis Allen (5 Viewers)

[St. Widge]

Why isn't doing the work of team owner a woman thing?

I'm pretty sure it's a joke making fun of all the people who were saying she was an "interior designer" and didn't care which were all more or less code for she's a woman so she doesn't care or know about football.

 

[St. Widge]

I think it will, her doing this was her way of telling Loomis he is done as GM

It might mean that. And at the very least it is a shot across his bow telling him he needs to do a better job.

Why isn't doing the work of team owner a woman thing?

He's being sarcastic and making fun of the people who were being blatantly sexist about her ability to make football decisions due to her gender.

 

[St. Widge]

I can't believe they did it! I thought we could lose 70-0 back to back and they still wouldn't fire him midseason. I'm almost in shock.

I really thought Loomis was going to wait to fire him until the end of the season but apparently Gayle had enough and pulled the trigger.

 

[Scorpius the Allfather]

So how long will Sean Payton going to have Dennis Allen on the first flight to Denver?

Why would he want him? He has a better defense and better defensive coordinator than DA already.

 

[anoldfan]

if DA has all of the young pieces and depth on D, he's proven to coach an extremely stingy D.

Until it really counts!

The ceiling is 10-7

Agreed. I think DA's time in the NFL has come to a halt. I see him in the college ranks next season as a linebackers or defensive backs coach. And not Georgia or LSU. More like a UTEP or USF type school.

I expected the usual wait until 4-5 days after Black Monday and quietly fired like they've done with everyone but Rob Ryan.

But Mrs. B came out blasting.

 

[Scorpius the Allfather]

Nah he had our defense playing well. Give credit where it’s due.

He was good but not great. 3rd and long? Automatic first down. Want a free first down? Just chuck it down field and our DB will get a penalty. And our 2 minute defense was ALWAYS TRASH. I will die on this hill that he wasn't a GREAT DC.

This, he can't call an effective defense anymore. It's declined every year since 2022

 

[Chris]

But Mrs. B came out blasting.

Well it is deer season.

 

[Goatman Saint]

All I want to see is players playing aggressively and trying to win. I understand there’s been a lot of injury and I know in places the talent is pretty shy. But let’s be aggressive making mistakes moving forward at least

 

[Madmarsha]

I'm so glad that Mrs. Benson had the time to break away from her needlework and scrapbooking to tend to this manly matter. Now she can get back to counting her money doing woman things.

Yeah, man. Only a woman could screw up a football team.

Yeah, but it was still a bonehead thing to say.
