Opinion Worst Saints Coordinator (offense OR defense) of all time (3 Viewers)

My vote PC...ain't no reason in hell for the offense to be this inept.

So Danny Abramowitz gets a pass?

I purged that Era from my memory

Didn't Carl Smith invent the "prevent offense"?

 

[Saint Greg]

Danny Abramowicz

Which makes me wonder if it was us? I think his scheme is predicated on getting pressure with the front four. I may misremember tho.

I think that was around the time that Payton was putting his nose too much in the defense. He needed someone he could trust so he could focus on what he does best.

Spags was only here for one season and never got a chance to build anything. We also know there was not much talent for Spags to work with when he was here either.

Spag's defense in Kansas City has been "just enough" to go to five straight AFC Championship Games and win two Super Bowls.

Meanwhile we're watching an offense loaded with All Pro and Pro Bowl talent fall straight off a cliff.

That anyone would possibly vote for Pete Carmichael among these options is just plain stupid.

Spags set NFL records for bad defense that year. Was the worst thing I have ever seen.

I'd say Carl Smith but Spags ruined our chance at multiple Championships. It's so bizarre to hear announcers praise him now

Spagnola was only with the saints for 2012. How does that equate to "multiple years"

Didn't he also win one as DC with the Giants?

Forcing Spags to keep the personnel Payton wanted him to have was a set up for failure.

He did, but I was only referencing his post-Saints career. The Giants defense he built and was DC for was the one that knocked out the 18-0 Patriots in the Super Bowl.

the next year Rob Ryan had a top ten defense with mostly the same group as Spags had the year before.

And then what happened in 2014, 2015, and 2016?

Gary Gibbs was terrible

they weren't very good, but they weren't historically bad..
