90% of the best defensive players in team history will be be in part of one of three different groups: Superbowl squad, dome patrol linebackers, and defense for the last 6 years.

To answer the question though, Lattimore is very likely the best CB in Saints history though not as iconic as Tracy Porter or Jabari Greer.

Meanwhile, Petey over here has better job security than a senator’s favorite OnlyFans model.

Loomis is great. He gets the talent players. Of course he does get us draft fails such as Marcus Davenport. However, we have overall drafted really well still. Paulson Adebo (3rd round) and Alontae Taylor (2nd round) have been playing like solid first rounders. Our linebackers crew which was really suspect a few years ago is now solid. Other than drafts, he’s been making good personel decisions. Also, people have been saying “Give his job to Khai Harley.” Harley is great no doubt, but he handles contracts. I don’t know if he has much experience in what Loomis does.

The problem is coaching and leadership. When you have consistent problems with routes breaking apart and miscommunication, that’s a coaching failure. When you have a talented guy like Chris Olave give up on his route, that’s a leadership failure. Our players are undisciplined and not motivated. When Sean Payton was here, a lot of players may have hated how tough his routine was, but he kept the players in line. He made sure they did their reps plus extra and were ready for each team every week. Dennis Allen despite his great defensive schemes, is a terrible leader and head coach. His “just keep doing what you’re doing but better” attitude is not cutting it.

Also Pete Carmicheal is a complete failure as an OC. It’s as if he doesn’t even want to be offensive coordinator and the job just fell into his hands. An OC such as him doesnt adapt the playbook to the talent of the players, but rathers tries to get the players to try to adapt to whichever scheme in the team’s playbook they can work with. Guys like Taysom and Kamara who have very unique skill sets that will get wasted here.

We’re likely making the playoffs and then get blown out in the first round. I almost rather we didn’t make the playoffs this year and get a better first round draft pick (at least we have the Broncos second round pick too).
