Coach Payton offensively called that game last night as if his job depended on it. Drew threw the ball like his job depended on it as well. He placed the ball in tight, tight quarter while throwing down field consistently. Once the got up on ATL, they put their foot on their necks and never let up. That's the mark of a team that knows how to finish what they started.
We'll Get There... :yes:
NH3...
All I could think is the Falcons can't cover a TE..... and then hey wait we can't cover the TE. The Falcons are very much like the NFC mirror version of the Jaguars. The difference being Julio Jones and Matt Ryan have more experience.
Honestly watching Drew Brees throw the ball was like watching balloons floating down the field. Better defenses are and will continue to feast on those throws. It was one game and the sloppy turnovers helped with the outcome.
Falcons made stupid mistakes that allowed the Saints to take control of the game early.
I'm definitely not for trading any draft picks to get a coach.

Quote:I do. I also do know that our coaching situation is our biggest liability. We're in a vacuum right now in the AFC south where theres a lot of parity and nobody is particularly good. With the right coaching, we would be at the top of the division right now.
They're not trading away draft picks for a new coach.
By the way, wasn't trades for coaches disallowed after the Bucs trade for Gruden?
That win against the 5-0 Falcons extended his time with the Saints

Head coaches and GMs can still be traded for cash or picks.

If getting Payton means losing Caldwell, I pass...
I was drooling over Sean Payton as early as 7 days ago. But I refuse to let Dave Caldwell go. Payton isn't that great of a coach to consider letting our GM go.
Caldwell is a great GM.
Remember that when Payton won his SB, his defense was playing out of thier minds. They don't play that type of D anymore. Even with that one dude that is the brother of the Bills HC...
Fire Braley. Keep Caldwell... Let Caldwell find his true coach... I think we're dynasty ready with Caldwell at the helm.

You do realized Caldwell was the one that hired bradley? I love the job Caldwell is doing in terms of scouting and player personnel, but unless he was just hoodwinked or pressured by Khan into hiring Bradley, I'm not so sure about his ability to hire an appropriate HC.
I love how everyone here is so averse to trading for a coach. First of all could be a cash deal, but even if its a draft pick, sign me up. We would be 3-2 with the appropriate coaching.
Everyone refuses to see it but the cards were stacked heavily in our favor this season and we just blew it.
TB- Rookie QB who had a QBR under 70, should have easily won.
Indy- No luck, should have easily won especially since Hass is freaking 40 years old.
Drafting players is super important but our most glaring need is a head coach. And lets be real, we aren't gonna attract any top talent - not when Miami, St. Louis, Detroit, and possibly the Cowboys need a new HC.

Reluctantly agreed. I still think Caldwell has the makings of a very good GM, and could easily be the best this franchise has ever had (including Coughlin), and I think that giving up on him would be a mistake--even if we're giving him up for a Super Bowl-winning coach from the Parcells tree.
If Payton does leave New Orleans and is willing to work with Caldwell, sign me up. He works under a GM in New Orleans and has never negotiated total control into his contract. If we'd have to trade for him...eh? Only if it's a cash-only deal, and it wouldn't be.

Who knows what went into hiring Bradley? For all we know, Caldwell might have had Arians on his wish list but was told by Khan that they wanted a younger, more dynamic coach instead of an older, cerebral one. Maybe Khan wanted to wait for Greg Roman, but Caldwell was so sold on Bradley that he convinced Khan to pull the trigger early. Maybe both Caldwell and Khan liked Roman, but they felt like they couldn't risk waiting for him, not being able to come to an agreement, and finding themselves left scrambling to catch up from day one.
