  1. I totally agree the issue is if you take Dennis Allen name out and replace it with jameis Winston all of the same rules still apply we have not seen any improvement from him everybody thought Andy Dalton would be better than tayson Hill and jameis Winston but neither one of them guys equate to wins and I feel like if you put in Hill he will win regardless to who the coach is because it's just in him to win the reason it's an issue because if you can see it with the coach why can't you see it with the players and you keep advocating for Winston as if he is the reason or ever been a reason we was winning

  2. Jameis has played 3 games this year and you tweeting bout some Jimmy G. What’s all that black QB bias you was talking about? 😂 come on bruh If you want a QB that thrives when he has a strong run game and defense Jameis is the guy.

  3. There have been many occasions where the star players on a team stood and challenged the lockerroom. Most go unspoken to the media! As it should stay in house! Why do we need to know of those meetings, we ain't helping the team. Those things are private to whom they concern. But it happens a lot of the time. I feel it's done mostly done in the NBA! Bum Brett F., Kobe, Shaq, M.J., K.G. and more, have squared up with their teams because of piss poor effort. And things did turn on. Most asked about it says it made a difference when the ones making the most on a team stand and hold themselves as well as others accountable. Tru Dat! Who Dat!

  4. Nice that AK stood up and said what must have been heartfelt.. BUT there are only 8-12 players that can make a difference between winning and losing….and for the most part, they are hurt or dont want to play. AK is ranked 19th best RB this season and has yet to visit the endzone. Jameis has a broken spine in 4 places, Dalton is 35, Thomas, Lattimore and Landry are hurt, Ingram is ineffective, corners are atrocious….Olave is already doing yeoman's work….who is AK talking to?….the coaching staff???

  5. It goes both ways, some of these players are playing bad football thus making the coach look bad ,it's up to the players to carry out the plays also we have some get by qbs until we find that franchise qb it's going to be a roller-coaster season

  6. My opinion is DA is hired to be the scapegoat for the next 2 years. With no #1 pick and $50M OVER the cap next year already amongst only 36 signed players….buckle up and accept some 4-13 seasons this year and next year until the SAINTS are out of cap hell.

  7. alvin kamara built hes legacy with drew brees since he was a rookie. im pretty sure he never had a losing season. hes not use 2 this. hes use 2 playing at a high level with hes team and being an amazing running back that he is. maybe drew instilled wanting to break records and be the best a little into him. just maybe he can rally the team. hes one of the only ones balling out. so he is leading by example. im sure its bothering him, not upsetting him, the way the saints are playing.

  8. Listen I agree he hasn’t been good and I think he’s in over his head. But if they start winning and hes the head coach that doesn’t make sense to say if they start winning it’s in spite of him and when they lose it’s his fault. Yes he’s been bad but if they start winning we can’t say he won’t be a reason

  9. I agree to an extent, However, the defense has to take more blame than the coach in my opinion. Those guys know what they are supposed to do, they aren't rookies, and they are soft as hell. The honey badger isn't the same anymore, and the front office got rid of CGJ. I'm not trying to defend DA but, those guys know what to do. Cannot really pin it all on DA. DA needs to have more fire, He is way to calm and cool. How many times did we see Sean in the ref's face? lol. He just needs to show more passion and the team can rally behind it. Just my 2 cents.

  10. how can you say he is supposed to trust Dalton and instill confidence in him but after the halftime interview when he told Andy to continue to do what he is doing, call him a fool. Seems like DA can't win with this fanbase but its the players screwing up between the lines all he does is coach…and if the Saints were 6-1 i bet DA would not get all the credit the players would just like they get all the credit for the 2 wins…like you say they would win in spite of him anyway…so no this is on the players…is DA supposed to come to AK and teach him how to tote the rock, the man has multimillion dollar contract…he is mainly there to guide and lead his coaching staff…positional coaches are responsible for the positions

  11. I hardly think seven games with many injuries, none of the best players, all very close, should defeat Allen as a coach. We knew it was going to be a year like this due to salary cap issues, about 60 million in dead money well into the future.

    One video described the Saints team as gambling, going back to the ATM to get more money to bet after losing a bunch of money and never quite getting that extra Super Bowl. If we'd won, it would've looked good, but we didn't. Stupid things kept happening to keep us out, from one bad play at the end, to a horrible no-call.

    Sean Payton left at an opportune time. He saw the writing on the wall and dumped it into Allen's lap.

    The show seems to have turned into a long, drawn-out hate-fest toward him. Allen sucks, Allen sucks, Allen sucks. Gets old.

  12. Hey TJ, I believe Kamara speech should put a fire under the team. I think Kamara feels the same way the fans feel. We know they are better than this and we were looking so forward to this season. I hope the players do some self reflecting and just put their best play forward. If we can see that they are giving their all and lose, then that's one thing. The appearance is that they are not giving their all. Some of the players just is not good, but we do have some who are. This is a speech that DA should have done actually 4 games back. What really worried me after that lost to the Cardinals, was when Dennis Allen said at half time, he told Dalton to keep doing what you're doing. I said, what the f…..k. I just couldn't believe he said that!
