are you kidding? they are on cloud 9 with ryans firing. they could not be more excited and are dancing on the saints report as we speak.

I was thinking internally.  I mean, how many more times can Brees and Payton get the guys fired up?  They are kind of like a wounded animal at this point which is a little concerning.

When it gets to the point when nobody is talking to anyone, then it's over. S. P will jump ship or be fired in the offseason. Cap problems won't help. You had your glory aftet the Katrina nightmare. Might be a while before you guys are back.

The season has been over. But I don't think Payton is going anywhere. He doesn't deal with the defense and he lets that be known. That's why Gregg Williams did well here. He handled his side of the ball and Payton handled the offense. 

This team is certainly short on talent, mainly on the defensive side of the ball. They're a few offseason away from putting things together, in my opinion. They need a couple more strong drafts like we had this year.

Depends on the oline. When he's been protected, he's shown he can still perform at as high of a level as anyone. 

I would think, optimistically, two more years. But who knows? Peyton Manning fell off of a fugging cliff, ya know? At this point in time, I'm not concerned about a decline in Drew Brees. He still looks very good.

Don't expect the Saints to get better, but this was a move that absolutely had to be made. I'm hoping they clean house on defense this offseason, unless we see a dramatic turn around. Even then, I'm all for firing everyone. 

This has been coming for a while. It's culminated Sunday. Rob stood on the sideline alone, not talking to anyone on the defensive staff or to his players. Players weren't talking to players. 

Im happy about the move. But sad because it was done too late. He should have never been kept in the offseason.

I think there's a pretty good chance you clean the entire house, not just the defensive side.

I was utterly shocked when Ryan wasn't fired this past offseason.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
