Maybe we're looking too much into this.  With the Saints trying to figure things out and the cap situation it may very well be just a break for a season they don't expect to do much in.  With how successful he's been the organization probably agreed and he'll come back after a break.

It's honestly a great time for him to step away and take a year off. Saints are in salary cap hell and need to clean up that mess and rebuild the roster. He gets to take a cushy TV job and have multiple job offers waiting for him when he decides to come back to coaching.

How long was Brees there?

 

In 3 years with Peyton Manning, John Fox's worst record was 12-4.  

It's been a QB league for some time.  I think we see that over and over again. 

Payton without an elite QB like Brees would have been fired long ago.  At least Pete Carroll can speak the truth.

      Who is going to take a shot at Malik Willis

      By cranky · Posted

      So Willis had a good game against a poor defense and all of a sudden he is worth 50 million and is guaranteed to be better than Young. LOL I know he looked good in the 3 games he started, and I think he will have success long term, but anyone signing him up for a long term contract for 50 million is taking a huge risk.

      Is he really though? Rivera was past his prime and probably shouldn't have even started 2019 so his firing wasn't really unexpected or unwarranted. Rhule lasted two and a half years which was about one year too long in my opinion. Bringing him back that third year certainly wasn't impulsive and I would say Tepper was more patient than he should have been. Wilks finished out that third season and did pretty good but most everyone could see he really wasn't anything more than an intern HC. Bringing him back was not the long term answer so not bringing him back was the correct call. Hiring Reich was a mistake from the beginning and he recognized that fairly quickly. I am sure he knew he was going to catch a lot of sh*t for firing him so quickly ( and boy did he ) but it was absolutely the right thing to do given everything that was going on. The firing may have looked impulsive, but I think it was him recognizing he had royally f*ck up and just dealt with it instead of letting it fester.  That brings us to Canales. 2025 was only his second season and yet he delivered 8 wins and the NFC South title. And while that might not sound great, given the lack of talent and cap space they started with, it's a strong step in the right direction. I couldn't imagine Tepper not being pleased with their progress given the crap the Panthers' have been though under his ownership.
