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?
The biggest indicator in this to me is the shift I’ve seen in Nick Underhill’s opinion. All season he’s reported that this front office will ride or die with what they’ve got. But in the last week or so his rhetoric has taken a much harder turn against the coaching. He said that he thinks Kamara’s recent comment about the locker room not being lost “amongst the players” was a deliberate dig at this coaching staff.
Reading between the lines, I can’t help but think Underhill talked to someone very high up with the Saints and they told him off the record that major changes are coming.
I noticed this as well. Nick is pretty well connected. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.
I noticed that too. He’s always been transparent with his opinions yet tries to stay objective on facts and situations, but this week he’s called the team mid and been very very sour about the staff. I hope it’s a sign of big changes incoming
If you heard Mickey Loomis, he still believes we have an explosive offensive, so Nick may not have heard from someone super high up unless he’s buddies with Gayle Benson.
