Didn’t Pete not want the job? Didn’t he decline it and we begged him to take it? I can’t remember what actually happened but this might explain why he doesn’t seem to be inspired.

He did much better this week. A lo too run heavy in the beginning of the game but he had some nice calls.

I thought that Pete didnt want the HC job.

I think we are seeing that Pete likes down the field passes for chunk yards rather than settling for what a defense gives them. If it *clicks* it can be beautiful, if not revelatory (see early Sean Payton calls), but when anything is off - timing, protection, players just falling down - it is disjointed and ruins any cadence in play-call and production. I would like to see us a bit more adaptable and just take what we are given, but I'm guessing after 10+ years in the league Pete isn't going to do that.

We need creativity and flexibility badly.

I don't know but I would definitely ask Brees if he's interested in coaching being a offensive asst playcaller or something.

Put a QB in who throws the short and intermediate routes and moves the chains, and suddenly Carmichael has improved. Amazing!

He's just comfortable where he is and doesn't want what DA is going through.

Outside of by necessity in the 4th quarter of the Atlanta game, we've not seen any up-tempo by either QB.

If I remember correctly, he initially passed on the job, but when confronted with the reality that then someone else would have to be brought in to be OC, he agreed.
