Breaking! Saints hire Kellen Moore as head coach (222 Viewers)

[AARPSaint]

The touchdown pass to Smith won me over. That was Paytonesque.

I would love to see what Carr can do behind a healthy line. Those first two games were special. Then the injury bug took over. Of course, if we can somehow trade him and not take as much of a cap hit, then so be it. I am still curious though.

They'll start freaking out about not being able to assemble a staff because of the late hire.....

We are all still available and we're all experts!

All the greats played behind bad offensive lines and still managed to win games look at Joe Burrows first season

Think we want too see how a QB plays behind a bad oline

It was gold. Man, he brought real content.

I think he had more faith in Mac Jones than Mac Jones does. Put a hole in the table how hard he pounded it for Mac Jones. RIP to the realest draft guru

Either way, Patullo 'bout to get paid!

That's a bad example because the Bengals line got Joe killed and injured his rookie year.

???

Didn't Burrow go 2-7-1 his first season, then got his knee destroyed on his 11th start?

Then Mac Jones out plays Sunshine in 2024.

idk if this has been said yet, but after Joe Brady shunned us, i really was worried our team going forward, and while i will admit Kellen Moore wasnt my #1 hire when the search began, i can honestly say im ready for the new era of Saints football, i genuinely hope he gets at least 3, hopefully 4 years before the Saints either extend him or go another direction, the last thing i want is to be one of these idiot franchises that hire and fire a HC after 1 or even 2 seasons....Moore needs 2, possibly 3 years before he can shape this team into a legit contender.

We will give him longer than DA got which was 2.5 years. So I see Kellen getting at least 3 years to turn this around.

Yep. He's a smart guy and knew his stuff, but at times he got overly obsessed with certain players that were never really very good. i.e. Mount Cody, Mac Jones, and Chase Claypool (one good year). But he was also at times belligerent about his opinions and anyone that differed.

 

[Merleaux]

The "it's happening" gif file would be appropriate here

A new era of Saints football (hopefully) is upon us.

IMO, He’ll continue to survive if he exceeds his floor each year. The floor for 2025 would be 3-4 wins with Rattler (because Rattler hasn’t won in 24). And probably 5 with Carr. If he gets 6 wins it’ll seem like progress. I remember Sean exceeding his floor and ceiling in 2006 which bought him like 4 years. On the opposite extreme, if (KM ) has 0 wins for the next two years, then he’ll probably not coach 3 years.
