I don't think there is clear understanding of where the exercise of judgement and decision making around accountability resides if Benson is not competent or when he passes.My understanding is that Dennis Lauscha is essentially Tom Benson's empowered proxy in the organization. In other words, for the Saints' rank-and-file, Dennis Lauscha saying something = Benson himself saying it.
Lauscha's name is rarely brought up on SaintsReport ... I sometimes think when someone bashes Loomis, they're really and unwittingly aiming at Lauscha.
I heard the deal with Lauscha mentioned but does that really mean Lauscha has authority on his own to step in and say 'enough' and fire Payton and/or Loomis and take over the reigns?
