Yes, it’s his 2nd full season as head coach, and so far he is 12-16 over the last year and half.

I know it’s an unpopular topic and one that many diehard Saints fans will argue about, but we barely escaped Carolina with a win, got our ass handed to us in the Dome by the Bucs, then lost to the Falcons in the ATL. We have the Lions coming to town this weekend playing some of the best ball they have in years, and then have the Panthers at home and Giants at home.

I’m under the opinion that if we lose 3 out of the next 6 games, we might be looking elsewhere for a head coach.

What do y’all think?

    I’ve seen comments on Youtube about his contract coinciding with the first out in Carr’s contract, and the reason he’s not flipping out is because Carmichael likely loses his job after the season, and he gets one more shot with a new OC… I think there could be some validity to that, especially since they’re going to want to keep the defense rolling. I think it could work - it would give the front office the continuity they wanted from the Sean Payton Era, and introduce a new offensive scheme (hopefully from one of the fresh new minds) to reinvigorate the offense. I’m not particularly a fan of him as a head coach, but maybe with a new OC he can make it work.

    I will always go back to what Cam Jordan told Rich Eisen when asked the question “What’s it like playing for a defense-minded head coach as opposed to an offense-minded one?” Cam replied “When the defense wins, we don’t run it back.” That’s troubling to me, and might really be the underlying issue why this high-powered offense can’t seem to get right.
